Instruction

  • Assembly Required?: Yes
  • Assembly Instructions: The waterer is shipped with the float assembly installed on the right side of the waterer bowl. The float assembly can be installed on either side of the waterer to best suit your application. Carefully remove the square plastic plug and the mounting nut and fiber washer from the float assembly. Reinstall the float assembly on the left side and the square plastic plug on the right side of the waterer before proceeding.1. Mount the waterer to a flat rigid surface like a stall, fence, or post with the mounting surface (back) of the waterer bowl as vertical/plum as possible. For additional protection against damage from animals, mount the waterer near an inside corner if possible. The waterer must be properly mounted to a vertical surface. The waterer will not work properly laying on the ground.2. Remove the float pin and float/arm assembly from the waterer to gain access to the mounting holes.3. Use the water bowl to measure and mark the mounting holes at the desired mounting location.4. Drill a hole in each of the two (2) marked locations. a. If mounting the waterer with 3/8” lag screws, use a 1/4” dia. drill. b. If mounting the waterer with 3/8-16 through bolts, use a 13/32” dia. drill.5. Install the waterer. Always use the mounting plate provided.6. Tighten the lag screws or through bolts securely and reinstall the float/arm assembly and pin.7. Wrap all supply line pipe thread connections (including the threads on the valve) with Teflon thread sealing tape and connect the water supply to the float assembly. DO NOT overtighten any fitting or supply line connection.8. Check to make sure the waterer fills and shuts off properly.9. The water level is pre-set at the factory; however, minor adjustments can be made to increase or decrease the water level in the waterer if desired. To adjust the water level, remove float arm assembly by pulling out the connecting pin, loosen the float mounting screw and nut with a screwdriver, then rotate the float arm up or down to achieve desired water level. Make sure you retighten the mounting screw and nut securely.
