Hook up and level the MicroFalls
• The first step is to install the bulk-
head fitting in the hole provided
in the back of the MicroFalls
rubber washer should be located
on the inside of the MicroFalls
Tighten the nut on the outside until
the rubber washer begins to bulge.
This should only be approximately
one turn past hand-tight. Be
careful not to over tighten the
nut, which could possibly crack
the bulkhead. Please note that
the bulkhead fitting is reverse
threaded. So, in other words,
turn the nut counterclockwise to
tighten! (See figs. 4 & 5)
• Now install the barb fitting
included with your kit into the
bulkhead fitting. A PVC slip fitting
has also been included in case you

are using flexible PVC pipe. Use
some of the silicone sealant to coat
. The
the threads of the fitting, in order
®
to help provide a watertight seal.

• Now it's time to position the Micro-
Falls
in the desired location.
®
• The MicroFalls
should be set at
®
or slightly below the grade of the
yard. Simply remove a section of
sod or a few inches of soil in order
to create a firm foundation for
the MicroFalls
to sit. Design tip
®
- Keep the waterfall to the scale
of the yard! The goal should be to
create the perception that Mother
Nature herself has constructed
the waterfall. Avoid creating a
"volcanic look" by trying to raise
the MicroFalls
in a flat backyard.

• Be sure to compact the area
beneath the MicroFalls
box using
®
a hand tamper or some other heavy
flat object that can be pounded
onto the soil. This will help prevent
any future settling.
• Use a 2' bubble level in order
to make sure your MicroFalls
®
is properly set into position. Your
MicroFalls
should be level from
®
side-to-side and tilt forward ¼ of a
bubble on a 2' level. This will make
sure the water comes over the front
of the MicroFalls
and covers the
®
entire spillway.
(See fig. 6)
• The filter is now ready for the
kink-free pipe and hose clamp to
be slipped onto the pipe fitting.

The connection is designed to be
tight and it may take some force
to get the pipe on the barb fitting.
Twisting the pipe clockwise may
help thread the pipe onto the
fitting. Have someone hold the
MicroFalls
in place in order to
®
prevent it from shifting out of level.
Once installed, the hose clamp can
be tightened to secure the pipe on
the fitting. (See figs. 5 & 7)
• Double check to make sure the
MicroFalls
is still level after
®
installing the plumbing.
