Kasco J Series Operation & Maintenance Manual page 3

IMPORTANT SAFETY
• Please read and follow these important instructions to help ensure your safety and the quality performance of your Kasco equip-
ment�
• Use caution when dealing with any electrical and/or moving equipment�
• Under NO CIRCUMSTANCE should anyone enter the water with the electrical equipment plugged in and/or in operation�
• Kasco Aerating Fountains are intended for use with a Listed control panel having a GFCI protected receptacle, or field wiring
terminals and disconnect switch, or a timer with a disconnect for use with a GFCI receptacle� Control panels MUST be installed by
a qualified electrician. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) should be tested upon each installation and every month thereafter
to ensure proper operation�
• Single-phase units are supplied with an internal grounding conductor and/or a grounding-type attachment plug� To reduce the risk
of electrical shock, be certain the unit is properly connected to the Kasco-supplied control panel (refer to the instructions included
with your control panel)�
• NEVER run the unit out of the water. This will damage the seals and create a dangerous situation for the operator.
• Use extreme caution around water, especially cold water, as in spring, fall, and winter, which poses a hazard in and of itself�
• NEVER lift or drag the equipment by the power cords. If you need to pull the unit to the side of the pond, use the anchoring ropes.
• Do not use boats that tip easily for installation and follow all boating safety rules and regulations, including wearing a PFD (Person-
al Flotation Device)�
• Do not use waders in deep ponds/lakes or ponds/lakes with drop-offs, drastic slopes, or soft bottom material�
• Control panels must be installed by a qualified electrician.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) should be tested upon each installation and every month thereafter to ensure proper
operation�
• For more information regarding your control panel instructions, refer to your control panel owner's manual� A control panel must be
installed a minimum of 5 feet (3m in Canada) from the body of water unless separated from the body of water by a fence, wall, or
other permanent barrier that will make the unit inaccessible to persons in the water� A complete list of control panels can be found
in the Accessories
Additional Notes
During flotation operation, water is pulled from 360° around and directly below the unit. Keep these areas clear of debris as much as
possible to decrease frequency of screen cleaning�
