5) Once the stator is removed, you
can also remove the impeller (3
white-bladed propeller) which is
held in place magnetically. To
remove the impeller, use a
fingernail to get under a blade
and lift out. (Fig. 4e)
6) Once the motor is disassembled you can clean the parts with
warm soapy water. Use a cotton bud or the Drinkwell ® Cleaning
Kit “Motor Brush” to get into the motor cavity and remove any
build-up. For added disinfecting and hard water removal, clean
the motor with white vinegar.
7) Once the parts are clean you can reassemble the motor for use.
a) Replace the impeller
b) Replace the stator
c) Replace the intake plate with the flow control knob
attached to it.

THE FOUNTAIN AND YOUR ENVIRONMENT
If you live in a humid environment and have problems with mold or
algae, soak all of the parts in a diluted bleach solution for about 10
minutes after regular cleaning. Use a 10% bleach and 90% water
solution. Pour some of the bleach solution down into the motor cavity
too. This is an excellent way to disinfect the fountain. However, you
must be sure to rinse all the parts thoroughly in only water to remove
all the chlorine.
If you have “hard water” you may start to see white mineral deposits
on or down inside the pump. This may eventually prevent the impeller
from turning properly. To avoid having to replace the pump, please
take the following steps:
1. Clean the pump more frequently than you have in the past; or
2. Clean the pump with a vinegar solution (20% White Vinegar and 80%
Water) and let the solution soak for several minutes down inside the
motor cavity; or
3. Use bottled water instead of faucet water.
