Operating Instructions

1. Power On: Once the nozzle kit is securely installed and the pump is submerged, connect the pump to a power source. The fountain should begin spraying water.
2. Adjusting Spray Pattern: Some nozzles may allow for minor adjustments to the spray pattern by rotating or slightly adjusting the top part of the nozzle. Experiment to achieve your desired effect.
3. Wind Considerations: Be aware that wind conditions can affect the fountain's spray pattern, especially for wider patterns like the Mushroom or Blossom.

Maintenance

• Regular Cleaning: Periodically remove the nozzle and extension tube from the pump. Rinse them thoroughly with clean water to remove any debris, algae, or mineral buildup.
• Check for Blockages: Inspect the nozzle openings and the interior of the extension tube for any obstructions. Use a small brush or wire to clear blockages if necessary.
• Pump Maintenance: Refer to your fountain pump's instruction manual for specific cleaning and maintenance procedures for the pump itself, as a clean pump is essential for optimal nozzle performance.
• Winterization: In freezing climates, remove the nozzle kit and pump from the water feature before winter. Clean and store them in a dry, frost-free location to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

Problem: Uneven or weak spray pattern.

Solution:

• Check for blockages in the nozzle openings or extension tube. Clean as described in the Maintenance section.
• Ensure the pump is operating correctly and receiving adequate power.
• Verify that the water level in your pond or feature is sufficient for the pump to operate effectively.
• Adjust the nozzle's top part if applicable, as shown in the operating video, to achieve the desired shape.

Problem: No water spraying.

Solution:

• Confirm the pump is plugged in and receiving power.
• Check for severe blockages in the pump intake or nozzle.
• Ensure the pump is fully submerged and not air-locked.

Problem: Fountain shape deforms due to wind.

Solution: This is a natural occurrence with outdoor fountains. Consider repositioning the fountain to a more sheltered area or choosing a nozzle pattern less susceptible to wind effects on windy days.
