Maintenance and Care Instructions
*** If the water becomes dirty and you want to put in clean water , disconnect the tubing from the Water Fall Flowmaster, and lay it away from the bath and use the pump to empty the pool out onto the adjacent ground. Then unplug the pump, and
sponge out the last of the muddy water.
* OR TO COMPLETELY CLEAN YOUR POND YOU CAN DO
THE FOLLOWING.
1. Unplug the pump, push the gravel aside off the mesh strainer, remove the strainer and pump.
2. Use a jet of water from a garden hose to wash the gravel beginning with the top cascade and working down to the
bottom pool.
3. Take a one gallon pail or equivalent sized container and dip
the muddy water out of the bottom pool and pour it on the ground.
4. Wash the gravel in the bottom pool again with the hose and
repeat dumping it out with the bucket. You can also stir the gravel by hand or with a stick to help suspend the dirt so it can be dumped out.
5. Usually 2 washings are sufficient to achieve sufficient cleanliness, but if you wish, you can do more.
6. If you suspect debris has gotten into the pump, see the pump
instructions for pump disassembly and cleaning.
7. Once complete, reinstall the pump and mesh gravel strainer,
refill with clean water and restart the pump. The water may be somewhere dingy but it should clear in an hour or two.
