1.  Tie the anchoring rope to the eyebolts on the float.  Use a rope at least three times the depth and be sure it has no slack.

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.  

5.  Anchors should be set out at a MAXIMUM of 45 degrees to the surface of the water.  It is preferred to have the anchor line as parallel to the surface 

as possible.  They should be on opposite sides of the float.  To ensure the unit remains very close to certain position, a third (or fourth) anchor line 
can be used.

6.    Be sure that the electrical cord has slack, hangs straight down from the unit and is not tangled with the anchor lines.  

7.  The anchor lines must be kept tight enough to prevent the unit from rotating due to motor torque.  If the water level changes or the anchor lines 

otherwise become slack, the unit will rotate and twist the electrical cord causing cord damage.

4.  Tie anchors to the anchor lines.  Use multiple anchors if the 

bottom

 is smooth or slippery.  Heavy or multiple concrete blocks are suitable for

 soft bottoms where they will sink into the mud, but they are inadequate on hard, smooth, slippery or sloping bottoms.
