INSTALLATION
For your convenience we have provided two different front filter
. One has a built in flow control, that can be
used to adjust the water flow if the flow is too fast for a particular installation. It is suggested that this specific front
filter screen be used in clean water features.
The other Front Filter Screen contains a sponge filter insert. This filter is to be connected to the front of the pump to
strain out the larger particles when using a fountain kit. This reduces the frequency of having to cleaning of the
fountain nozzles as often. If using an optional fountain kit, select the filter cage with the sponge insert.
FOUNTAIN KIT SETUP GUIDE
A basic plastic fountain kit is not recommended for pumps that have flow over 1500 GPH. It’s better to use commercial
fountain nozzles for higher flow. See your dealer for examples.
For Pumps, from 250 GPH to 1200 GPH, there are a number of optional fountain kits readily available. PondMAX has
three readily available. For various suggestions of the correct model and fountain type selection see the specification
table on page (page 2).
For the purpose of these guidelines, a PondMAX #30 Jet kit has been selected. The installation principle will be
similar for the other types.
Using the 1” to ½” threaded Reducing Nipple
(1)
, attach onto the Male
Threaded outlet of the pump. Now secure the Dual-Control T Piece
(2)
onto threaded reducing nipple. Now on the top of the Dual-Control T
Piece
(2),
connect the Threaded Reducing Adaptor
(4)
on. Now extend
Telescopic Riser with Threaded Locking Nut
(10)
to the desired height,
then secure onto the top (1” thread) of the Threaded Reducing
with the threaded locking nut provided. Align Telescopic Riser with
Threaded Locking Nut
(10)
vertically.
Select the desired nozzle,
(7) (8)
or
(9)
, and screw into the Fountain
Nozzle Threaded Mount.
(6)
Then attach the Fountain Nozzle Threaded
Mount to the Telescopic Riser with Threaded Locking Nut
(10)
.
Locate the Stepped Hosetail
(5)
. Attach this to the side outlet of the
Dual-Control T Piece to facilitate an optional accessory, for example; a
small waterfall or spitter. Now, utilizing the two different
knobs
(3)
, on either side of the T-Piece, you can vary the flow to the
fountain head or the optional small waterfall/spitter outlet
.
Feel free to close off the side outlet of the Dual-Control T Piece, if it is
not required. However if it is required, connect tubing to the Hosetail
provided and direct the hose to your desired location.
Place the pump in desired location; ensure the pump is on a stable
surface that is free of sludge, sand and other debris. Position the device
in the pond horizontally, on a solid base, in such a way that it is fully
covered with water and ensure that the pump is located, at a depth,
in the water, which will not allow it to suck air from the surface. This is
known as cavitation. Cavitation is a cause of premature impeller wear.
The fountain nozzle should now be protruding out of the water. Push the
plug into the power supply outlet to switch on. Use the power supply
NOTE: PondMAX #30 Jet kit has been selected as a sample.
