This procedure is the best and simplest method of winter storage, if a boat is available. By sinking the unit, the motor has no possibility of losing some

of its internal motor fluid, it cannot freeze, the unit is not damaged by handling, seals do not dry out and it saves the work of removing and re-installing

the unit. To sink a unit for winter storage, the pond depth must be 4 to 6 feet plus the height of the unit itself. Get the minimum water depth from the

Aqua Control brochure, add 4 to 6 feet plus the normal depth of ice on the pond. If the pond does not have sufficient depth, then sinking is not an

option for winter storage. Any Aqua Control unit can be stored by sinking with enough depth in the pond.

Attach poly rope for retrieval. Use a rope that floats for finding and retrieving the unit. Attach a small marker float to the rope end if desired.

Determine how many inches of float are above the water when the unit is off. Use the information under flotation, page 12, to determine the

amount of weight it will take to sink the unit.

Weight lifting weights are a convenient and economical source of such weight. Do not use concrete blocks as weights. They are bulky and weigh

only about ½ their normal weight when in water.

Secure a 25 lb. weight to each eyebolt on the float. Tie a rope thru the hole of one weight. Tie the other end of the rope to a float eyebolt or

tie it to a snap hook and snap the hook over the eyebolt (the snap must fit over the 3/8" diameter eye of the eyebolt). Repeat for the other float

eyebolt. The ropes must be long enough so that these weights hang down below the bottom of the unit. Attach a poly rope for retrieval. Use a

rope that floats for finding and retrieving the unit. Attach a small marker float to the rope end if desired or if a non-floating rope is used.

Using another rope 6' to 8' long, secure additional weights to the unit as needed. Keep the weights clear of lights or cord. These weights do not

need to hang down past the lower tube.

Repeat until all the weights have been added. When the last weights are added the assembly should gently sink until deepest weights rest on the

bottom. The unit will then float upright in this position until pulled back up in the spring.

Spring retrieval will require very little effort since just enough weight has been added to sink the unit.

When properly submerged, the top of the unit should be at least 2' to 3' below the surface of the water so that it is out of the ice layer.

Be sure to follow the instructions so that the unit is not driven into the mud.
