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 finger-
nail 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.
