• Level the Waterfall Spillway
(Ex. 35). The spillway
should be level from side-
to-side and tilted forward a
1/4 bubble to ensure proper
water flow.
• Fold the liner over the top of
the Waterfall Spillway
(Ex. 36). It is recommended
to provide some slack
in case the position of
the spillway needs minor
adjustment later in the
installation.
• Using a screwdriver or awl,
puncture a small hole in
the liner through the center
of the Waterfall Spillway
fitting (Ex. 37). This will be
your reference point for
the location of the liner
connection.
• Unfold the liner back off of
the spillway and remove
the retaining nut from the
Waterfall Spillway fitting.
The fitting is reverse
threaded; please refer to
the arrow located on the
retaining nut for proper
direction.
• Center the retaining nut
over the puncture hole in
the liner and using a pen,
marker, or sharp tool such
as a screwdriver, trace a
line around the inside of the
retaining nut (Ex. 38).
• Use a knife or pair of
scissors to trim the
traced hole in the liner
approximately a 1/8"
(3.175 mm) inside the
traced line (Ex. 39).
• The Waterfall Spillway fitting
includes two pre-installed
rubber gaskets. Remove
the outer rubber gasket
from the fitting. Then, guide
the hole in the liner over the
fitting so that the liner fits
snug around the base of
the fitting (Ex. 40).

• Replace the removed rubber gasket back onto the fitting.
The liner should now be positioned between the two
rubber gaskets (Ex. 41).
Ex. 35
• Place the retaining nut on the spillway fitting and hand-
tighten. The Waterfall Spillway fitting is reverse threaded;
please refer to the arrow located on the retaining nut for
proper direction.
Ex. 36
• Tighten the retaining nut an
additional 1/4 to 1/3 turn
past hand-tight (Ex. 42).
NOTE: Be careful to not
over-tighten the retaining
nut, which could lead to a
crack in the plastic fitting.
• Using the black silicone
Ex. 37
sealant, coat the threads
of the second PVC male
adapter fitting. Then, thread
the fitting into the outside of
spillway fitting (Ex. 43). The
sealant will help to provide a
watertight seal.
• Apply a coating of PVC
pipe cement to the inside of
Ex. 38
the fitting (Ex. 44) and the
outside of the PVC pipe (Ex. 45).
Ex. 39
• Insert the pipe into the
fitting, firmly holding in
place for approximately 30
seconds (Ex. 46).
