Kasco J Series Operation & Maintenance Manual page 8

UNIT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Use ropes to position the fountain in the desired location in the
pond or lake� Anchor the ropes or secure them to the shoreline so
that they are free of slack, but not tight� To prevent twisting of the
unit due to motor torque, place the anchor at least 3 feet from the
float for each foot of depth (Ex. a 6ft deep pond would require an
anchor 18ft horizontally from the float).
Alternate Installation:
In ponds where the water level fluctuates significantly, a small
weight may need to be suspended at the midpoint of the rope
to take up any slack caused by a drop in water level (1 foot
of 1'' galvanized pipe works well). The weight should be light
enough so that the fountain can rise as the water level rises�
This weight can also help hide the anchoring ropes by sinking
them further below the surface�
After unit is installed in the water, connect the power cord to a properly installed Kasco control panel (C-85, C-95, etc.) with built-in
ground fault protection according to the instructions and electrical schematics included with the panel� Follow all local and national
electrical codes for unit and control panel installation; consult a qualified electrician or service person if needed.
The fountain is ready to be turned on and enjoyed�
