GENERAL OWNER’S INSTRUCTIONS 

 

INSPECT THE SHIPMENT 

Immediately inspect your Kasco shipment for any visible damages.  Also cross reference the parts 
supplied with the Parts Included sheet to check for shortages.  Shortages should be reported immedi-
ately to your Kasco Marine distributor or representative and damages reported to your carrier and 
Kasco Marine. 

 

CAUTION 

WARNING:  Under NO circumstances should anyone enter the water with the unit in operation.

  

Always operate the unit in the water and keep people and objects clear of the propeller.  Do not lift or 
pull the unit by the electrical cord.  Always use extreme caution around electrical equipment and wa-
ter situations. 

 

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION 

Please see the proper Assembly and Installation Instructions enclosed in this manual.  Each is specific 
for your model and size of equipment.  

Note:  

Use the nylon tie provided 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.  

Note

: It is extremely important to test the user supplied GFI breaker upon each installation/

reinstallation of the unit to ensure proper functioning. 

 

USE AND OPERATION 

Kasco units are designed and engineered for continuous duty, such as on fish farms or other aquacul-
ture applications, or on-demand use, as needed in a recreational water feature. 

 

During flotation operation, the water is pulled from 360

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 equipment is ready for immediate use (after installation).  The motor and ball 
bearings are submerged in oil and no further lubrication is needed.  

Make sure to keep the motor hous-

ing clean from hard water deposits and/or algae. (See Maintenance Recommendations on page 20.)

 

 

It is extremely important that proper and sufficient voltage (240/208V) is supplied to the motor.  It is 
extremely important to test the user supplied GFI breaker upon each installation and reinstallation and 
every month thereafter to ensure proper operation.  

 

Kasco 50Hz units are lightweight, energy efficient, and easy to install and operate.  We strive to pro-
duce products that exceed customer expectations.  We hope you  enjoy your Kasco equipment.
