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.
