cal cord. Always use extreme caution around electrical equipment and water situations. ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Please see the proper Assembly and Installation Instructions enclosed in this manual.

UNIT SPECS Model Voltage 1400JF 120 volts Amps 3.
STEP THREE Locate the 5 nozzles included with the shipment (the Osprey nozzle is already installed on the fountain, along with the Upper Pump Housing). Using the Nozzle Options diagram on page 7, determine which pattern is desired and the corresponding nozzle. If the Condor or Falcon patterns are desired, you must remove the Osprey Nozzle by removing the 1” Self Tapping Phillips Head Screw.
STEP SIX Use the ropes to position the Fountain in the desired location in the pond/lake. Anchor the ropes or secure them to the shoreline so the ropes are free of slack, but not tight. To prevent twisting of the unit due to torque, you should place the anchor at least 3 feet from the float for each foot of depth (Ex. A 3 foot deep pond would require an anchor 9 feet horizontally from the float.
STEP NINE Set C-25 Timer to desired ON and OFF times per the C-25 Instructions on page 8. Make sure to test the GFI using the Test Button located on the outlet before turning the equipment on and every 30 days thereafter. Plug the 1400JF cord into the C-25 outlet labeled “UNIT”. If lights are included, plug the Transformer cord into the C-25 outlet labeled “LIGHT”. STEP TEN Plug the C-25 into the 120V power supply on post and ENJOY YOUR NEW KASCO 1400JF AERATING FOUNTAIN.

CONTACT A QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN! Failure to use the C-25 with Kasco Fountains will void the warranty and cause the Fountain to not be listed to UL and CSA standards via ETL. The following maintenance procedures can be utilized to ensure many years of quality performance from your Kasco Fountain and reduce the need for more costly repair work. PROPER INSTALLATION: Proper installation of Kasco equipment will include a power source with ground fault interruption.
WINTER STORAGE: In regions where there is significant freezing in the wintertime, the fountains should be removed from the water to protect them from the expansion pressure of the ice. In many areas, fountains will keep some amount of ice open through the winter. However, when the water is thrust into the air, it is exposed to the colder air temperatures longer and can actually make ice thicker on the pond/lake. Storage over winter is best in a location that is out of the sun and cool, but above 32OF.
The Fountain is returned for repair without the power cord or if the unit, control box, or power cord are altered in any way from original shipment. Cuts in the power cord are not covered under warranty. Fountain must be connected to the supplied GFI control box to be covered under warranty. The Fountain is damaged by unauthorized tampering.

“My Fountain hums, but will not start. When I spin the prop with a stick, it starts up.” This indicated a problem with the Starting Capacitor. Each Kasco Fountain is equipped with a Starting Capacitor to get the unit going when it is first plugged in. If it is operating, but not spinning and can be started by spinning the prop with a stick, the Starting capacitor needs to be replaced by an Authorized Repair Center.
