NOZZLE ADAPTOR INSTRUCTIONS:

Spray Head: Snaps on the fountain body - has 19 streams of water - use flow
control to adjust height/size of spray - lower the spray height during windy con-
ditions for better control of the spray.
Waterbell: Insert into fountain body until it bottoms out then pull the waterbell up
about 1/4" - moving waterbell deeper into fountain will make spray thinner- adjust
the thickness of the waterbell spray by moving the water bell up and down in the
fountain body - adjust the size/diameter of spray with the flow control - waterbell
spray may be affected by windy conditions, adjust as necessary.
Bubbler: Inserts into the fountain body until the ribs bottom out - provides a tube of water
mixed with air - use flow control to adjust height/size of spray - great for hot months when fish
need extra oxygen due to increased water temperature.

PUMP INSTALLATION:

Place your pump into the pond making sure it is in a stable location. If you are using a
secondary accessory/water feature, attach the hose to the two-way flow control valve. Lay out the
power cord to your properly grounded receptacle protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter
(GFCI). Plug in the power cord and check pump for proper operation. Adjust flow control valves to
achieve the desired output at the fountain and secondary feature if applicable. After you have every-
thing working to your satisfaction, you can cover up/hide power cord. You may now enjoy your
pond and/or experiment with the other fountain nozzle adaptations. You may want to review the
versatility/add on accessories section of the instructions to familiarize yourself with
what you can accomplish with you new pump system.

PREFILTER CLEANING:

When you see a reduced flow from your pump, it is time to clean the
filter. Turn off the power to the pump - remove the filter - wash the
filter in clean water and reinstall on pump - turn the pump back on
and check for proper operation. Having a spare filter will make this
task more convenient.
