and allow the unit to hang at a slight angle.  After installation and the unit is turned on, your Kasco De-Icer 
will swing up to an angle (the angle is dependent on how many cage wires you move the line) and the De-Icer 
will hold that angle during operation.  This allows you to aim the flow of warmer water in the desired location.  
If the Universal Dock Mount or Horizontal Float were purchased, see their Assembly and Installation Instruc-
tions later in this manual. 
 

STEP FIVE 

Once your De-Icer is properly installed and secured, you can now plug the unit into a properly grounded and 
GFI protected circuit.  If a C-10 Thermostat or C-20 Timer/Thermostat Controller was purchased, they can be 
plugged into the outlet receptacle and the De-Icer plugged into the controller.  See Controller Instructions later 
in this manual. 
 

STEP SIX (OPTIONAL) 

On installations where open water area is required or de-
sired to be limited/controlled, a curtain technique can be 
used to block the flow of water and restrict the open wa-
ter area.  By draping a canvas tarp as a curtain in the wa-
ter, you can successfully disrupt the flow of water from 
the De-Icer.  The canvas can be tied above the water 
level and weighted at the bottom (easiest if you fold the 
tarp in half and lay a chain in the fold as the weight).  
The curtain needs to hang into the water a few feet.  This 
curtain will allow you to protect only the area you need.  
As always, we recommend the ice-free area is well 
marked.
