It will not fi t if installed from side of opening. Use the
Nylon Cable Tie included to secure the power cord to
a molded hole in the fl oat to prevent cord damage if
there is no strain relief on the cord. If a Strain Relief
is present on the cord, you may disregard the Nylon
Tie. On cords with a Quick Disconnect, the discon-
nect should be tightened properly to avoid leaking.
If installing a new Quick Disconnect, refer to Quick
Disconnect Instructions.
STEP EIGHT
Select a nozzle (See JF Nozzle Options). Insert the
Shaft Bolt into the Nozzle Head so it fi ts snugly into
the molded socket. Install the Nozzle by threading it
into the inner cone of the pump. Make sure to tighten
the Nozzle all the way down.

Thread one rope through one weighted tube rope
Weight and position it approximately 6’ from the
fl oat. Next, thread the end of the rope back through
the opening facing the fl oat (as shown). Repeat with
the second rope and weight. If ready to install in the
pond, go to Installation instructions. Light Kits can
also be installed at this time, go to Light kit instruc-

cure mesh vertical seam at the top, bottom and middle
STEP FIVE
See “Mesh Screen Attachment” section before con-
necting the bottom screen to the fl oat. Turn secured
assembly upside down so the top of the fl oat (logo
side) is face down on the fl at surface. Place Bottom
Screen (Part 10) onto the bottom side of the fl oat.
Make sure the wide opening of the screen is against
the fl oat and the 3 handles on the screen do not in-
terfere with the rope placements. Fit the 3 Bottom
Screen cushion (Part 9) underneath the screen and on
top of the 3 spacing bumps on the bottom of the fl oat.

3/8”-16 x 1-3/8” Bolt (Part 6), two 3/8” Flat Washer
(Part 7), and 3/8”-16 Nylon Lock Nut (Part 12) to
secure the screen to the fl oat. Align a clip so the two
prongs straddle a wire on the screen. Insert bolt with
washer so the top of the bolt is facing the top of fl oat
(now in down position). Place the second washer and
the locking nut with nylon insert on the end of the bolt
and tighten using the 9/16” (14mm) Socket and Ratch-
et on the nut end and the 9/16” (14mm) Wrench on the
bolt end. Tighten until snug and repeat with remaining
clip.
STEP SEVEN
Turn the assembly upright again. At this time, if the
cord contains a metal strain relief, you can use the
chain connector and attach it in one of the opening at
the rope placement. The chain connector will easily fi t
if installed from the bottom or top side of the opening.
