ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Revised August 7, 2008
1. Make sure you are assembling your fountain on a level surface

with pump and light
3. Wrap a piece of putty around the cords where you will be placing the stopper.
4. Fit cords into stopper
5. Place a piece of putty inside the length of the slit in the stopper
6. Wrap putty around outside of stopper ensuring that the slit and the cord hole are covered and sealed
7. Press stopper firmly into the hole of basin
8. Place one of the galvanized steel pipes inside each of the PVC holes in the fountain basin
9. Using a caulking gun, run a bead of silicone along the top of the fountain basin where the water feature will be
placed. Take care not to use too much silicone to minimize oozing of silicone from between the pieces.
a. Make sure to run a bead of silicone all the way around the circumference of the steel pipe to ensure a
water tight seal
10. Make sure the basin is level before placing the water feature on top
11. Place the water feature on top of the basin making sure that the galvanized pipes are inserted into the PVC
holes in the bottom of the water feature. BE CAREFUL NOT TO PINCH FINGERS UNDERNEATH BASIN
WHEN LOWERING!
a. Note – Wedges may be used if necessary to level the water feature
12. Clean off any excess silicone with your finger or a dry rag as quickly as possible.
a. Note – silicone should be allowed to dry according to manufacture’s recommendations prior to fountain
operation
13. Place a hose clamp over one end of the 5/8” non kink tubing
14. insert that end of the 5/8” non kink tubing onto the pump water outlet
15. Place another hose clamp onto the other end of the 5/8” non kink tubing
a. Note – the third hose clamp may be placed on the tubing prior to installation as a flow restrictor if
necessary
16. Place the other end of the 5/8” non kink tubing onto the copper pipe extending down from the water feature
17. Tighten the hose clamps on the ends of the 5/8” non kink tubing
18. Once silicone is dry, fill basin with water.

WINTER CARE AND GENERAL FOUNTAIN INSTRUCTIONS
-W I N T E R
CARE-
Fountain bowls/tops and other fountain components, which collect water, should not be left outside in the
winter since any component, which fills with water and freezes may crack. Likewise components such as
pedestals, which remain in a basin, filled with water, which then freezes, may also crack or crumble. Ideally,
therefore, a fountain should always be stored indoors or in a dry protected place such as a covered porch
away from the elements. However, if a fountain must be left outside:
(1) Remove pump, rubber stoppers, drainpipes, finials, and other small components for storage
indoors. Note that stoppers or drainpipes are removed to allow drainage in the event water accumulates in
any basin.
(2) Raise fountain base from ground with wood strips so that base will not freeze to the ground
surface.
(3) Cover or wrap the fountain with burlap or other absorbent material (old blanket or towel) and
then cover securely with plastic, making sure that water will not accumulate in the basin or other fountain
component and freeze;
(4) Check fountain periodically to insure that plastic is secure and water is not accumulating in any
fountain component.

FOUNTAIN
TIPS-
Install fountains on a level surface. You will need a properly grounded 110-volt (AC only) GFCI protected
receptacle near the fountain for your pump. All pumps are submersible and must be completely underwater
to function properly. Test all pumps and adjust to full output prior to assembly. It is not recommended that
fountains be placed directly on grass or dirt. Position the channel opening at the base of each fountain
toward the electrical outlet to be used since the pump cord will be threaded through this opening
