The following documentation will walk you through how to uncrate your waterfall Tools You Will Need Safety gloves Electric drill No 2 Phillips bit Bit holder Glass holders Pair of flat/ platform dollies Instructions 1. Your container will be marked to indicate which side is the front of the water feature. 2. Position the package so that the indicated front face is facing towards the ceiling. 3. Starting from the marked front face of the panel use the drill with the No2 Phillips bit to begin undoing all of the screws. Remove the cardboard. 4. The waterfall is wrapped in plastic and surrounded by protective insulation foam. 5. Remove the top layer of insulation foam, but do not throw it away. You can re-use the foam to protect the stainless steel while you move it into is final position. 6. Remove the cardboard from the other sides of the shipping container. Also, remove the wooden frame pieces from all sides. 7. Once all of the wood is removed, use the assistance of a few colleague to help pivot the base from its current horizontal orientation into a CAUTION: WHEN SERVICING YOUR WATER FEATURE MAKE SURE THAT YOU DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL AND LIGHTING.

If not, refer to page 4 of this document. The pump, filter, UV sterilizer, control valves will all be accessible by removing the lid top. The plumbing connections are completed prior to your receipt of the unit. Please remove all packaging inside the base prior to filing the basin with water. Run all electrical cords out of the chase hole on the side of the tank, do not plug in any components until you’ve filled the base with water. Tools You Will Need Liquid level Shims Ladder or scissor lift Microfiber cloth Phillips screw driver Pair of low profile dollies Mallet It is highly recommended that a party of 3 or more are available to assist in installation. The unit will will need access to 120VAC 20 AMP Duplex outlet (US Standard outlet). Step 1: Prepare Installation Location Before moving the water feature into place, you must ensure the floor is perfectly level and flat. Step 2: Position The Water Feature Use a dolly under each end of the water feature to afford the ability to move the waterfall around easily. Remove any debris from the area surrounding the final placement of the water feature. Use a liquid level to check the floor for level. Pivot the basin on one of the short edges. Roll one of the dollies under the basin. Next, carefully, tilt the waterfall so that the other dolly can be rolled underneath. Move the waterfall nearest to the final location as possible. To remove from dollies: Lift one side of the waterfall, remove a dolly then rest the base onto the floor. Do the same for the other side. Now you must slide the waterfall into its final location. After the water fall is in position, check that it is level. Note* An unleveled waterfall will cause the water to flow improperly.

To use the shims: Keep the level on the top of the basin of the waterfall. Slightly tilt the waterfall and insert a shim starting from the thinest end of the shim into the gap between the floor and the bottom of the waterfall unit. Allow the waterfall to rest on the shim. Check the level again. You may have to use the mallet to tap the shim further into underside of the base. Repeat the process until the base is level on all sides. Once the base is level break off or cut the exposed ends of the shims. Remove Lid tops on the base Step 3: Chase Cables Chase the cables for the water pump and UV sterilizer out of the small hole on the side of the water fall base make sure they reach the outlet. Step 4: Fill With Water Your unit requires approximately 36 gallons of water. (We Recommend using distilled water.) Fill the base directly, do not overfill, The water surface should be at least an inch below the electrical chase hole.

For more water onto the glass turn the valve handle towards perpendicular to the PVC piping. Avoid turning the valve completely perpendicular to the piping as that will decrease the efficiency of the UV sterilizer Primary control valve Step 6 First Run Water Pump Connect all cables. The water fall will begin to run. Adjust the primary control valve to achieve the desired speed/ flow of waterfall. Replace the lid tops and header.

To make sure that it operates and looks as new as possible, perform regular maintenance. Pump and UV Sterilizer Oase® Waterfall Pump Cleaning the unit ● Regular cleaning of the pump may be necessary depending upon the environment in which it is operated. Clean the pump when it is visibly soiled or when a drop in performance is detected. Clean the unit with warm water using a soft brush. ● Never use aggressive cleaning agents or chemical solutions. These could attack the housing surface or impair the function. ● In the event of stubborn furring (calcium deposits), a common household cleaner free from vinegar and chlorine can be used. Subsequently, clean the pump thoroughly using warm water. Pondmaster® UV Clarifier The bulb has a life of 9000 hours before the UV output drops below a useful level. It should remain on 24 hours per day throughout the season. For the best possible performance, it is recommended that the bulb be replaced every year. Remember, the bulb will produce visible light long after it has stopped producing UV wavelength. The quartz sleeve should be cleaned periodically of dirt or lime scale build-up since this will block the UV light and reduce efficiency. Clean the quartz sleeve with vinegar and a scrub pad. Please dispose of the used bulb in accordance with state hazardous waste laws since it contains mercury.

We recommend using Protec® for removing and preventing white scale build up and stains from contaminants in the water. We also recommend using Fountec® to kill all types of algae and prevent re-growth in the water. It also clarifies the water. Replace the water once a year or as needed. Fountec® Algaecide, Clarifier Before You Start: The most effective use of Fountec is best achieved when fountain and water garden equipment has been checked and is working properly. If needed, backwash or clean the filter according to instructions. Occasional small use of chlorine product to non-chlorine shock helps remove organic waste and excessive algae growths. Follow recommended dosage for your water feature size. CAUTION: WHEN SERVICING YOUR WATER FEATURE MAKE SURE THAT YOU DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL AND LIGHTING.

The addition of Fountec “Weekly Dosage” makes for easier maintenance by keeping water clear and algae-free. Cleanup: For maximum effectiveness, water containing heavy algae growth should be cleaned of excess debris. Add and dispense proper Fountec dosage under “Visible Algae” directly to water. Super chlorination or shock treatments synergize with Fountec to improve the control of algae. In fountains; a non-chlorine shock is recommended. Follow label instructions. Operate circulation pump during algae clean-up period to ensure thorough distribution and maximum cleanup effect. Protec® Scale & Stain Remover Before You Start: Best use of Protec® is achieved when fountain is clean of debris and freshly filled with clean water. Water fountains with normal loss of water due to evaporation require only the “Preventative” Treatment after initial filling. Fountains with some loss of water due to splashing (leakage) require “Optional Monthly dose.” CAUTION: WHEN SERVICING YOUR WATER FEATURE MAKE SURE THAT YOU DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL AND LIGHTING.

If that doesn’t resolve the issue. Check if base is level. Water flow is too low, adjust the control valve. Pump not operating at full power Air may be trapped inside the pump or piping. To resolve, disconnect all cables, disconnect pipes from the water pump and remove pump out of the water, allowing the air to escape. Next, submerge the pump back into the base and reconnect the plumbing from underwater. Spitting/Misting from panel Decrease water flow with the primary control valve Spray Bar clogged Open door on the header. Clogged spray nozzle. Unscrew the troubled, black nozzle by twisting counter clockwise, and run warm water through nozzle. Disengage the Spray Bar from the glass and rinse with CLR. Use a Pipe cleaner to dislodge any obstructions inside the nozzles Pump Is Loud/ Can Hear A Sucking Sound There is not enough water in the base Fill with more water. Leaking Water Leaking water DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL CABLE. Black Nozzle Check if water level is above electrical chase hole CAUTION: WHEN SERVICING YOUR WATER FEATURE MAKE SURE THAT YOU DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL AND LIGHTING.
