WARRANTY
Kasco aerators are the result of over 35 years of design
and engineering. Kasco products are built to with-
stand the toughest conditions. Kasco Marine backs
each VFX model aerator with either a 2 Year or 3 Year
Warranty depending on the model. This warranty cov-
ers any and all manufacturers defects within the war-
ranty period from the date of purchase (See Warranty
Section). Please register your aerator online at:
www.kascomarine.com (under the technical tab)
USE AND OPERATION
Kasco aerators are designed and engineered for con-
tinuous duty, such as on fish farms or other aquacul-
ture applications, or on-demand use, as needed in a
recreational water feature.
During flotation operation, the water is pulled from
360
O
around the unit and from below the unit. The
water is pulled upward and thrust through the flotation
collar into the air.
Your Kasco Marine aerator is ready for immediate use
(after installation). Make sure to keep the motor hous-
ing clean from hard water deposits and/or algae. (See
Maintenance Recommendations.)
It is extremely important that proper and sufficient
voltage is supplied to the aerator motor. Unit should
be protected by a GFCI. Control panels must be
installed by a qualified electrician. (See Installation
instructions).
Kasco aerators are lightweight, energy efficient, and
easy to install and operate. We strive to produce prod-
ucts that exceed customer expectations. We hope you
enjoy your Kasco aerator.
UNIT STORAGE
When storing units during the offseason, it is impor-
tant to store them upside down if they are going to be
sitting for long periods of time. Units that sit upright
on a shelf for many months, or even years have a
greater likelihood of seals drying out. Storing upside
down will ensure oil is lubricating the seals and pre-
vent drying.
