ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION
1. Consider the following needs of your fountain when determining
the appropriate location:
a. Enough space to create a hole approximately 10 inches
(0.25 m) deep and 36 inches (0.91 m) diameter, and will not
interfere with any buried utilities.
b. Utility needs of fountain:
i. 115 VAC/60 Hz power source within approximately
10 feet.
ii. Water source (garden hose) to periodically refill basin.
c. Existing landscape and the interaction of space.
2. Outline the basin and dig the hole for your basin (Fig. 3).
3. Place the basin in the hole and verify the following:
a. Top of basin is approximately at ground level (flush).
b. Top of basin is level in 2 directions: left to right, and front
to back. To correct non-level condition, remove basin and
spread sand in low-lying areas of hole. Replace basin and
measure again. Repeat until basin is leveled (Fig. 4).
c. Rotate basin to orient cord exit feature for expected routing
direction of pump power cord.
4. Backfill the basin. (Using stones or weight inside the basin will
help keep the basin in place during this step.) (Fig. 5)
5. Remove and clean all the debris from inside the basin.
6. Screw four brackets to bottom surface of fountain (Fig. 6); use
the load bearing center column as a guide. Carefully center
column on fountain, then place a bracket in each corner as
shown (Fig. 7). DO NOT ATTACH TO THE COLUMN.
7. Place center column inside the basin, ensuring it is positioned
in the circular groove at bottom of basin, and oriented with
the feature shown in the figure (Fig. 8 and Fig. 9). Rotate the
column until it drops into place.
8. Prepare your fountain pump by following the instructions and
illustration below (Fig. 1).
a. Remove pump from its carton.
b. Read the instruction sheet shipped with the pump. Pay
particular attention to all caution and warning statements.
Retain document for future reference.
c. Remove the discharge adaptor that is shipped with the pump.
d. It is optional to remove suction cup bracket from pump.
e. Thread the fitting shown into the pump's discharge port.
f. Study the FLOW and orientation symbols on check valve
body. Then slip the check valve over the fitting for a snug
fit (Fig. 1).
9. Attach rubber grommet to flexible pipe about 1" from end
and squeeze through the bottom of the fountain. A flat screw
driver may help with inserting the grommet until it is at least
½" beyond the bottom (Fig. 10 and Fig. 11).
10. Slowly place fountain on center column, while routing flexible
pipe through central opening of column.
