(around the Draw Band) of the motor. At this time,
use the Nylon Tie provided to connect the power cord
and front Rope to prevent the cord from tangling in the
prop. Also, if the power cord has a Quick Disconnect
and Additional Strain Relief install the Quick Discon-
nect and Strain Relief per instructions.
STEP THIRTEEN
Float the circulator in the water and position where
desired. Tie the front Rope to a stake on the shore or
weight. If a weight is used sink weight in front of unit
so rope is taught. (Circulators create great force, make
sure weight is enough to prevent movement.) Tie back
Rope to a stake on opposite shore or weight. Sink
weight behind the unit so rope is taught. At this time
take up any slack in the line.
STEP FOURTEEN
You can now connect the Circulator into the RCD
protected power source at the ponds edge.
Maintenance Recommendations
Under No Circumstances should anyone enter
the water while a fountain is operating. Turn Off and
Disconnect electrical power prior to any Maintenance
or Servicing
RCD (Residual Current Device) or GFCI are a safety
feature that can also alert you to electrical leaks in the
equipment. It is extremely important to test the RCD
upon installation, each reinstallation, and monthly
thereafter to ensure proper operation. If you have
repeat, consistent trips on your ground fault, the equip-
ment should be disconnected and removed from the
water. The power cord should be inspected for dam-
age and you should call a Kasco Marine distributor or
representative for further instructions.
If the supply cord becomes damaged, it must be
replaced by an authorized service center, or similarly
qualifi ed persons in order to avoid a hazard.

OBSERVATION: Operating equipment should be
observed on a regular basis (daily, if possible) for any
reduction or variation in performance. If a change
in performance is observed, the equipment should be
disconnected from power and inspected for any ma-
terial that may have clogged the system or wrapped
around the shaft of the motor, especially plastic bags
and fi shing line. Even though Kasco Aerators &
Circulators are among the most clog-resistant on the
market, it is impossible to protect against all items that
can clog equipment and still maintain a fl ow of water.
These materials can be very damaging to the equip-
ment under continued operation and must be removed
as soon as possible. ALWAYS UNPLUG THE UNIT
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE CLOGS.
WINTER STORAGE: In regions where there is
signifi cant freezing in the wintertime, Aerators should
be removed from the water to protect them from the
expansion pressure of the ice. In many areas, Aerators
will keep some amount of ice open through the winter.
However, when the water is thrust into the air, it is
exposed to the colder air temperatures longer and can
actually make ice thicker on the pond/lake. Storage
over winter is best in a location that is out of the sun
and cool, but above 0
CLEANING: Equipment should be removed from the
water at least once per year (at the end of the season
in cold climates) to clean the exterior of the system,
especially the stainless steel motor housing (can). The
motor housing is the surface that dissipates heat into
the water and any algae, calcium, etc. build-up will be-
come an insulator that blocks heat transfer. In warmer
regions it is recommended that the motor is removed
and cleaned at least two to three times per year de-
pending on conditions. In most cases a power washer
will be suffi cient if the unit and algae are still wet.
SEAL AND OIL REPLACEMENT: This is a sealed
motor assembly and seals will wear out over time
(similar to break pads on a car). Replacement of the
seals and a change of oil after three years may add
longevity to the operation of the motor, saving you the
cost of more expensive repairs. In warmer climates
where the equipment runs most or all of the year, it is
a good idea to replace seals more regularly than you
would need to in colder climates where the unit is
removed from the water for several months.
