GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

INSPECT THE SHIPMENT: Immediately inspect your Kasco Aerator shipment for any visible damages�  Also cross-reference the parts 

supplied with the Parts Included sheet to check for shortages�  Shortages should be reported immediately to your Kasco Marine distrib-

utor or representative and damages reported to your carrier and Kasco Marine�

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION: Please see the proper Assembly and Installation Instructions enclosed in this manual.  Each is specific 

for your model and size of aerator� 

•  Use a nylon tie to help keep the power cords for the unit and lights free of the propeller by tying each cord to either side of 

the float. If you have a light kit, make sure that the unit cord is tied to one side of the float and the light cord to the other for 

balance�  

•  It is extremely important to test the GFI breaker in the control panel upon each installation/re-installation of the unit to ensure 

proper functioning�

USE AND OPERATION: Kasco aerators are designed and engineered for continuous duty, such as on fish farms or other aquaculture 

applications, or on-demand use, as needed in a recreational water feature. During flotation operation, the water is pulled from 360 de

-

grees around the unit and from below the unit. The water is pulled upward and thrust through the flotation collar into the air. Your Kasco 

Marine aerator is ready for immediate use (after installation)� Make sure to keep the motor housing clean from hard water deposits and/

or algae. (See Maintenance Recommendations.) It is extremely important that proper and sufficient voltage is supplied to the aerator 

motor. Unit should be protected by a GFCI. Control panels must be installed by a qualified electrician. (See Installation instructions).
