Troubleshooting
• If water of rainfall holes fails to flow:
Open the lock, take off the lid, and remove the black cover. Take cleaning pin
out and stick through holes several times (Fig 5). Then replace cover and lid in
place.
• If the pump fails to operate, check the following:
Check the circuit breaker, or try a different outlet to make sure the pump is
getting electrical power. NOTE: Always disconnect from electrical outlet before
handling the pump.
Check the pump discharge and tubing for kinks and obstructions. Algae build
up can be flushed out under a heavy faucet.
Remove the pump inlet to access the impeller area. Turn the rotor to ensure
it is not broken or jammed (Fig 6).
Monthly maintenance will add to your pump's life.
NOTE: Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the electrical outlet to form
a 'Drip Loop'. This will prevent water from running down the cord into the
electrical outlet.
• If the pump gurgles, spews or "burps":
Check the water level to make sure the pump has enough water to function.
• Obtaining a desired water level:
Check the water level daily the first week to measure the rate of evaporation;
refill with water as needed.
