Catania Fountain
TM
Pre Assembly Preparation:
1. Note: The Catania Fountain is designed for
easy assembly but the fountain is heavy. Please
use caution and it is reccommended to use 2 people
when assembling, lifting or moving fountain.
2. Prior to assembly take time to find a suitable location
for your fountain and make sure to place the Base of
your Fountain on a flat, firm surface.
3. Use Diagram 1 for reference on part names,
connecting and how all the individual parts fit together
for this fountain.
4. Use all electrical safety precautions, always use
properly grounded outlets. Please make sure that the
electrical plug is dry and clean before inserting into the
outlet. Never remove the ground pin from the electrical
plug. Always unplug before filling with water or
servicing your fountain.
5. Due to evaporation check and fill water level
periodically.
1. Prior to assembly take time to find a suitable location for your fountain and make sure to place the Base of your Fountain on a flat, firm surface (Figure 1).
2. Pass the cord from the pump down the pipe located in the middle of the reservoir (Figure 2 and 3). Place the water pump in the reservoir (Figure 4).
3. Find notch on bottom of base (Figure 6). Make sure to place the water pump electrical cord into this notch (Figure 7). Ensure cord is not pinched, which could cause an electrical short.
4. Fill the fountain reservoir with water (Figure 8). Water level must be about 2 inch above the Water Pump and about 2” below power cord discharge pipe. Due to evaporation check and fill
water level periodically.
5. Have a second person assist and set the Fountain Ball on the side of the base (Figure 9) while you locate the tubing inside the Fountain Ball and attach it to the water pump (Figure 4 &
5). Ensure pump is sitting on the bottom of the reservoir and not hanging, this can cause the water pump to be out of the water and cause pump damage. While the Water pump is
submerged under water shake the water pump to remove any air bubbles that may be present inside the water pump housing. Lower the Fountain Ball into place on the reservoir (Figure
10).
6. Plug in your fountain and enjoy.
OPERATING YOUR FOUNTAIN:
Turn on/plug in Fountain: If having trouble with the water flowing evenly out of the sphere, or in the event you need to level the surface of your fountain, you can use shims to
even out the water flow. To use shims, place the shim{s} underneath the base opposite the side that that is not flowing evenly.
Water Level: Due to evaporation, clean water must be added periodically. You can use a funnel to add water or you can use help to lift up or tilt the Foutain Ball and ad water. Water level
must be maintained between 2” above the Water Pump and 2“ below power cord discharge pipe. Failing to do so could cause the water pump to run dry, resulting in a damaged pump.
Damage to the water pump due to an inadequate water level in the fountain base will void the limited warranty.
