STEP THREE
Position one Top Float Bracket (Part B2) so that the
bolt holes in the bracket align with the bolt holes in
the two adjoined fl oat sections and insert two 9” Black
Coated Bolts (Part B4) through the assembly. This
may require some minor repositioning of the fl oat sec-
tions as you push the bolt all the way through. Do not
force the bolt through. Repeat for the remaining two
joints.
STEP FOUR
Turn the assembly upside down and place the Bottom
Float Brackets (Part B3) over the bolts, the ends of
which should now be extending through the assembly.
Loosely install the six Lock Nuts (Part B5) on the ends
of the bolts (do not tighten yet).
(For 8400, 2.3, 3.1, 3.3)
Connect the top and bottom brackets using three 3/8”
x 1” Bolts (Part B15) with the three 3/8” Nuts (Part
B5) and tighten using the 9/16” (14mm) wrench and
socket.
STEP FIVE (For 8400EJ, 2.3EJ & 3.1EJ, 3.3EJ)
Return the assembly to the upside down position and
place the motor assembly (Stainless Steel can side
up, black pump down) in the center of the fl oat. At-
tach the motor to the fl oat using the Unit Mounting
Brackets (Part B6). The notch in the center of the Unit
Mounting Brackets should be positioned over the top
ring of the cage and should be attached to the fl oat
bracket using the two middle holes of the fl oat bracket
on 8400EJ & 3.1EJ.
Tighten using the 1/4” x 3/4” Bolts with 1/4” Lock
Washers using the 7/16” socket and wrench. (See pic-
tures) Note: If you have trouble positioning the Unit
Mounting Bracket between the Cage and Fountain
Housing, you can use a screwdriver to gently pry open
enough space.
STEP FIVE (for 5.3E(H)JF)
Rest the fl oat on the base plate of the unit. Connect
the fl oat to the base plate using the 3/8” x 1” bolt (Part
#B15) and 3/8” lock washer (Part #B16). Tighten us-
ing a 9/16” wrench.
STEP FIVE (For 3.1EVFX, 3.3E(H)VFX models)
Return the assembly to the upside down position and
place the motor assembly (Stainless Steel can side
up, black tube down) in the center of the fl oat. Align
the 3 taller legs of the black fountain tube with the 3
fl oat brackets. Attach the motor to the fl oat using the
1/4” x 1” bolts. Attach to the fl oat bracket using the
two middle holes of the fl oat bracket. Tighten us-
ing the 1/4” x 1” Bolts with 1/4” Lock Washers using
the 7/16” socket and wrench. The 1” bolts will screw
directly into the legs of the black fountain tube.
