cords into the stopper’s holes (large hole for the pump cord), and press down into the corner hole
to create a water-tight basin.
6) Push the water tube onto the pump within the basin. Place the flow restrictor on the water
tube, turning the restrictor just tight enough to hold in place roughly 12” above the pump. Push
the other end of the tube through the rest of the fountain … the 4875C, 6” Square Tube, 4875B,
5” Square Tube, and onto the barb under the 4875D top plate.
7) With help, it is time to stack the fountain pieces onto the Basin. As you do, make sure to not
scrape, crush, or pull on the light power cord and water line which run through all these pieces.
Place the 4875C Plate onto the Basin. Make sure the drain slot in the middle faces sideways in
contrast to the front and back side of the Basin. In other words, the slot should not point toward
the lower, back portion of the Basin.
8) Set the 6” Square Tube over the slotted drain of the 4875C. Set the 4875B on the 6” Square
Tube, followed by the 5” Square Tube, and finally the 4875A Top Plate.
9) Read your pump and light instructions. Fill the Basin with water. Connect your power cords
to start your fountain. (If your pump does not push water immediately there may be an “air-
lock” within the pump’s impeller chamber. You can remedy this by simply unplugging and re-
plugging the pump a few times.)
10) Use the shims included to adjust any of the plates to a level position to help the fountain
flow evenly.

IMPORTANT – WINTER CARE
Winter ice build-up can cause damage to concrete statuary. Follow these tips to reduce winter weathering to your fountain:
* Disconnect power to pumps and lights.
* Remove plugs / stoppers in all fountain bowls to open drains and let all moisture out. Keep drains open throughout winter.
* Place an absorbant material like burlap, blankets, etc. inside vases/bowls and cover all with a Henri fountain cover.
* Do not allow snow or ice to build up on or against the concrete. Remove snow before it turns to ice. Do not use antifreeze, salt or chemical
ice removers as these may damage concrete.
