NEVER lift or drag the equipment by the power cords. If you need to pull the unit to the side of the pond, use the 
anchoring ropes.  

 

Do not use boats that tip easily for installation and follow all boating safety rules and regulations, including wearing a 
PFD (Personal Flotation Device). Do not use waders in deep ponds/lakes or ponds/lakes with drop-offs, drastic 
slopes, or soft bottom material. 

 

For more information regarding your control panel instructions, refer to your control panel 

owner’s manual

. A control 

panel must be installed a minimum of 5 feet (3m in Canada) from the body of water unless separated from the body 
of water by a fence, wall, or other permanent barrier that will make the unit inaccessible to persons in the water. A 
complete list of control panels can be found in the Accessories section of kascomarine.com. 

Additional Notes 

During flotation operation, water is pulled from 360° around and directly below the unit. Keep these areas clear of debris as 

much as possible to decrease frequency of screen cleaning.
