• The convenient 3-Way
Diverter fitting provides you
with the ability to connect
and adjust the flow rates to
as many as three different
pumping locations. Simply
adjust the valve on the
3-way Diverter fitting to
dial in the desired water
flow. if you are not using all
three valves, close off the
unused valve to maximize
the amount of water flow to
the remaining valves.
• If using a diameter pipe larger than the smallest section
of the Multi Hose Adapter, trim off the smaller sections
to avoid any flow restriction.
• Attach tubing to the fitting. If tubing is loose on fitting use a
hose clamp (not included) to secure tubing onto the fitting.
• Connect the other end of the pump tubing to the pond filter,
such as a biological filter, waterfall spillway or pressurized
filter or to a decorative fountain or spitter.
• Connect the pump to an
outlet that is protected by
a ground fault interrupter.
once the pump is running
and water is circulating
through the filter(s) or
waterfalls, check for
any fitting or waterfall
leaks where the external
connections are made.
operation and maintenanCe
• Filter Screens – Do not remove the pump cover-inlet screen
or filter sponge while operating the pump. operating the
pump without the front cover or filter sponge can allow
large debris to enter the pump causing the pump to fail,
thus voiding the warranty.
• Filter Screen Cleaning – we recommend inspecting your
pump on a regular basis to make sure it is functioning
properly. Always disconnect the power before performing
maintenance on the pump. if you notice the water flow rate
is diminished, it may be due to the pump’s filter screen or
sponge becoming clogged with debris. in many cases the
clogged screen can be cleaned by reaching in to the pump
and removing, by hand, any debris from the filter screen. if
there is a lot of debris and/or the debris is difficult to clean,
you may need to remove the pump from the pond or basin
for a more thorough cleaning. A garden hose can be used
to spray off any debris stuck on the filter screen or sponge.
be sure to replace both the screen and sponge and make
sure they are firmly attached to the pump body, before
lowering the pump back into the water.
