5. Once the Intake Plate is removed, remove the Impeller (white, 3-bladed propeller)
which is held in place magnetically. To remove the
Impeller, use a fingernail to get underneath a blade
and lift out of Pump (Fig. 17).
6. Once the Pump is disassembled you can clean
the parts with warm water and soap. Use a cotton
swab or the "motor" brush from the Drinkwell
Cleaning Kit to get into the Pump's motor cavity
and remove any build-up (Fig. 18). For added
disinfecting and hard water removal, clean the
Pump's motor with a diluted vinegar solution (20%
white vinegar and 80% water). Be sure to rinse
thoroughly with fresh water.
7. Once the parts are clean, reassemble the Pump
for use.
a) Replace the Impeller.
b) Replace the Intake Plate.
c) Replace the Faceplate with the Flow Control Knob.
Pet Fountain Reassembly
1. Replace the Pump into its location in between the three posts on the right side of the
Pet Fountain. Gently push down to engage the suction cups (Fig. 19 & 20).

2. Thread the In-Line Plug of the electrical Power Cord through the hole located next
to the Pump. To insure the Pet Fountain Bowl is stable, run the electrical Power Cord
along the "cord channels" and through the notch in the base of the Pet Fountain
(Fig. 21 & 22).
