10. All electrical work must be performed by a qualified technician. Always follow the
National Electrical Code (NEC) or the Canadian Electrical Code as well as all local,
state and provincial codes. Code questions should be directed to your local electrical
inspector. Failure to follow electrical codes and OSHA safety standards may result
in personal injury or equipment damage. Failure to follow manufacturer’s installation
instructions may result in electrical shock, fire hazard, personal injury or death, damaged
equipment, provide unsatisfactory performance and may void manufacturer’s warranty.
11. Do not carry or lift the pump by the power cord.
12. Never use an extension cord or tamper with power cord. Power cord should not become
bent, twisted, abraded or cut. A damaged cable may cause electric leakage, shock or
fire. The power cord cannot be replaced, and unit should be replaced if cord becomes
damaged.
13. Do not remove the pre-filter housing during operation of the pump.

Assembly and General Installation
1. The pump can be placed at the bottom of the pond. One end of the hose will connect to the
pump outlet and the other will feed a filter or waterfall device.
2. Maximum performance is achieved when used with largest outlets and tubing sizes available.
Restricting water flow with small accessories will reduce the performance of the pump.
3. Select the step barb fitting or the PVC adaptor fitting based on type of tubing being used.
4. When using the step barb fitting, use a hacksaw to remove
any smaller steps than the tubing being used.
5. Secure the adjustable ball joint fitting to the pump outlet
and attach the appropriate tubing adapter by hand
tightening the locking nuts.
6. Secure tubing to adapters. Use clamps (not included)
on barb fittings or rubber coupler (not included) for PVC
adaptor fitting.
7. When moving the pump be sure to lift only by handle and
not by power cable.
8. Place the pump on a flat brick or stone on the pond bottom. This keeps the pump out of the
sludge and prevents excess debris from entering the pump.
