FOUNTAINS.COM 5701F Setup Instruction

1) Prepare a suitable location for your new fountain, with a firm and level surface.
2) Always follow your local
electrical codes. Make sure to
connect to a safe GFCI circuit.
3) Place the fountain's basin unit
on its finished location. Notice
that one side of the basin
bottom has a groove to allow
power cords out. Face that side
closest to your power source.
4) Set the pump in the basin unit.
Slip its power cord down
through the center hole and pull
out the bottom so that it exits
under the groove mentioned
earlier. Place the rubber
stopper around the power cord
and press into the center hole
as shown.
5) Thread the 15-248 1" male x ¾" barb adapter into the underside of the 5701 top unit.
6) Thread the 15-245 ½"male x ¾" barb adapter into the top of the pump. Push or twist the water
tube onto this exhaust adapter on top of the pump. Place the Flow Restrictor in the middle of the
tube and tighten just enough to stay in place. (This can be tightened later if you want to turn down
the water flow somewhat.) With the help of a second person, lower the 5701 into the center of the
basin unit, pushing the remaining open tube end onto the barbed adapter up inside the 5701.
7) Fill the bowl unit with water to about 1" from the top.
8) Read your pump instructions. Then, plug the pump in to enjoy your fountain. Two shims are
provided in case you want to adjust the level of fountain top piece. If the pump does not
immediately
begin working, there may be an "airlock" within the impeller chamber. Simply unplug and plug in a
few times and it should start.
