UNDERSTANDING THE DRINKWELL
®
PARTS
1)
Housing Cover
: the cover or lid snaps in place over the
filter housing well, keeping pets out of the charcoal filter.
2)
Housing
: here the water is pumped up through the
housing to cycle through the charcoal filter and out the
spout to create a long five-inch waterfall into the bowl.
3)
Pre-filter
: a small intake grate that will catch large
particles such as hair and kibble before they reach the
filter. The pre-filter can be removed by pulling up on the lip
at the top. To replace, slide back into place over the flow
control knob and push down until it clamps around
the knob.
4)
Bowl
: the Drinkwell
®
bowl is the foundation of the
fountain. It features two handles on either side of the
fountain as well as a “cord channel” to hide the cord
from view.
5)
Flow Control Knob
: the black knob that attaches to the
motor which will adjust the rate of water flow. The pre-
filter will snap around the neck of the flow control knob
which will lock it into place. The knob is attached to the
motor and can be removed by taking the motor apart (See
section “Motor Maintenance”).
6)
Motor or Pump
: a small submersible aquarium pump
that can be dismantled for cleaning.
THE PUMP IS NOT
DISHWASHER SAFE!
Remove pump from fountain before
cleaning (See “Motor Maintenance”) The pump cord also
features a removable inline plug for easy attachment.
7)
Reservoir
: the extra capacity reservoir holds over a half
gallon of water. The reservoir cap will help to minimize
spills when you refill the reservoir.
