INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Wall should already be framed for the fountain using the positioning dimensions shown in Fig's. 3, 4, or 5. Shown
dimensions pertain to installation location (framing must support up to 300 lbs. weight). These dimensions are required for compliance
with ANSI Standard A117.1/ADA requirements.
2. The freeze resistant package must be mounted on an interior wall in a heated area. The room temperature of the interior heated area
must be 50° F (10° C) or higher. The freeze resistant package may be surface or recessed mounted. If recess mounted the surface of
the cover must be flush with the interior wall surface. The package is furnished with screws for mounting the cover to the box. If the
box is recess mounted, do not fasten the top and bottom of the cover to the box. Use the holes on the front only.
3. To assemble the operating cable to the sleeve inside the fountain arm you will need to remove cap screw (Item 18, See Fig. 6) and then
remove Push Button and Pin (Items 12 & 13, See Fig. 6). Remove screw (Item 20, See Fig. 6) and you will now be able to remove the
Sleeve (Item 7, See Fig. 6) to get access to the adjustment nuts for additional adjustability. (Fountain should be mounted to exterior wall)
Create a loop in the cable and thread the free end of the cable through the wall into the freeze resistant box. The adjustment nuts should
be in the middle of threaded area on the operating cable. See Fig. 6.
4. Connect free end of operating cable to the valve-operating bracket. The end of the cables must be recessed into the indents on the
pivot brackets.
5. Remove cable free play by adjusting the jam nuts on the ends of the operating cable. See Fig. 6.
6. Connect water line from fountain bubbler into freeze resistant box. The connection to the box uses a quick connect water fitting.
Position the water line, in the fountain, to drain back into interior mounted box. Any water left standing, in the exterior line, can freeze. To
insure positive draining of the bubbler supply tube, excess length should be trimmed off and discarded.
7. Connect drain and water supply lines to the freeze resistant fountain. Inline strainer must be used on the inlet water line.
START UP
1. Turn on building water supply and check all connections for leaks. Repair as required.
2. Stream height is factory set at 35 PSI. If stream height needs to be changed adjust the regulator in the freeze resistant package.
Clockwise adjustment raises stream height, counter clockwise adjustment will lower stream.
3. Adjust operating cable as required. Cable system should have a minimal amount of free play to allow for proper valve operation. If the
system is too tight the valve will stay in the on position creating constant water flow. Too much free play will result in non-operation of
the valve with the push-buttons.
4. Note: Water from the drain back tube in the freeze resistant package will continue to run while the valve is actuated.
5. After cable system is adjusted properly, stuff flexible insulation into any openings between the outside wall and the interior box.
6. Recheck all connections. If all connections are leak free replace cover(s) on the freeze resistant box(es) and fountain(s).
