You can typically adjust the water flow on a fountain pump using a control located directly on the pump itself. This control can be a switch, a dial, or sometimes even require a tool.
Here's a breakdown of how to adjust the water flow:
-
Locate the Flow Rate Control: Look for a switch or dial on the pump body. This is the primary control for adjusting the water flow rate.
-
Types of Controls:
-
Switch: This usually slides up or down and has marked settings, often ranging from "Slow" (S) to "Fast" (F), with several options in between.
-
Dial: Dials can be adjusted manually by clicking them to different speed settings.
-
Screwdriver Dial: Some dials require a flat-head screwdriver for adjustment. Locate the small slot on the dial and use the screwdriver to turn it to your desired flow rate. Be careful not to overtighten or force it.

Adjusting the Flow: Depending on the type of control, adjust it accordingly:
- Switch: Slide the switch to your preferred flow setting.
- Dial (Manual): Turn the dial to the desired speed.
- Dial (Screwdriver): Insert the screwdriver into the slot and gently turn the dial to adjust the flow.
By identifying the type of control on your fountain pump and carefully adjusting it, you can easily manage the water flow to achieve the desired effect for your fountain.
