pump maintenance
Important: Cleaning the Pump is essential to the longevity of the Pet Fountain as well as
the cleanliness of the water. Clean the Pump every 2 weeks. Warranty may be voided if
the Pump is not cleaned regularly.
1. Remove the Pump from the Pet Fountain as explained in the Filters and Pet Fountain
Cleaning section.
2. Remove the Faceplate by using your thumb and forefinger to gently squeeze on both
sides of the Faceplate and pull off. It may be necessary to insert a fingernail into the
seam of the Faceplate to pry it off (
fig. 12).
3. Next, remove the Stator by placing your fingernail underneath the small lip located on
the narrow side of teardrop-shaped Stator (
fig. 13) and pull out to remove.
