Installation; Combo Series Mooring - Aqua Control COMBO Series Instruction Manual

Mooring a floating product means running a ¼" nylon rope from the eyebolts on the floats to the stakes on either side of the pond. Mooring is usually easier to
accomplish than anchoring and makes maintenance much simpler since the unit can be towed back to shore.
1.
Tie the mooring line (preferably nylon because it sinks out of sight in the water) to the eyebolts on the float.
2.
Pull the unit past its final location by a distance at least equal to the depth of the pond at the desired final location.
3.
Bring the unit back to the final position. There should be enough slack on the electric cord to allow it to hang straight down without tension on the unit
causing it to tilt the spray pattern.
4.
Hold the position of the unit in the water by tying the mooring lines from the eyebolts to the mooring stakes on shore.
5.
Motor torque causes the unit to try to rotate. Upon startup, watch to make sure the unit cannot rotate more than 1/3 of a turn. If it is allowed to rotate,
the electric cord can pull around the unit very tightly and cause damage.
6.
Never allow long lengths of rope to float near the intake of the unit where it can be pulled in and entangled in the prop or impeller.
