GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR WATERFALL USE

1.  Unpack the product, wipe off dust with a damp cloth. Take out all 

accessories: a bag of small stones, pump, adaptor, and a cleaning pin. 

2.  Familiarize yourself with the pump. Turn valve on pump counter clockwise 

placing the handle in a horizontal position for maximum water flow. Turn the 

valve on the pump in a vertical position for minimum water flow. 

CAUTION: This pump has been evaluated for use with water only.

NOTE: It is recommended the pump be set at its highest flow during assembly

and later adjusted to a lower setting if desired. Be sure to unplug pump before

adjusting flow setting.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK

• Do not connect to any voltage other than that shown on the pump.

• This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type

attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is 

connected only to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.

• The national electric code requires that a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) 

be used in the branch circuit supplying fountain pumps and other pond equip-

ment. See your electrical supplies dealer for this device.

• If the supply cable is damaged it can not be replaced and the pump unit should 

be discarded.

WARNING: RISK OF FIRE

• Do not use with water above 30˚C.

• Do not pump flammable liquids.

3.  Ensure that the unit is balanced when placed on a flat surface. Attach the AC 

adapter jack to the base power cord and tighten. DO NOT plug into outlet at this time.

NOTE: Do not let pump run when NOT submerged in water. Doing so may damage the pump. Always submerge

the pump in water first, and then plug in the unit. 
4.  Fill base with distilled water to approximately 1/2" above pump. Use distilled water only. Tap water will create mineral 

deposits that will result in the corruption of the Waterfall and pump.. 

5.  Plug cord into 120V household outlet. Turn pump on to verify flow making sure it is not too high and everything is 

operating correctly. Arrange small stones on top of plate. 

WARNING: This is not a toy. To avoid danger of choking keep small stones away from Children and Pets.
NOTE: Ensure that the electrical cord loop below the electrical outlet.” This will prevent water from running down 

the cord into the electrical outlet.

MAINTAINING CLEANLINESS AND LIFE OF WATERFALL & PUMP

1. Ensure water pump is kept clean and free of debris. We recommend

using distilled water with this product. 
NOTE: To clean pump, first make sure pump is UNPLUGGED 

from 120V circuit and remove front plate. After removing the 

front plate, the impeller holder must be removed. Remove the 

impeller from the pump and check for debris and/or dirt. Rinse 

impeller and pump under cold water. Reassemble.

2. Periodically change water and clean the structure of the waterfall 

with a mixture of vinegar and cold clean water. 

3. Add water to waterfall periodically to keep water level at an optimum 

level (approximately 1/2” above pump) to avoid shortening the life of 

the pump. Water level should completely cover pump at all times. 

NOTE: Never let the pump run dry. This will shorten the life of the pump.

4. To store waterfall after use, unplug the waterfall from the electrical outlet, empty the water, and store in a cool dry 

place.
