1 The TFH Bubble Tube Podium is made of sturdy MDF painted wood and comes with a padded seat cushion. It is available in two sizes 24 and 36. The purpose of the Bubble/Hurricane Tube Podium is to provide a comfortable seat to get close to the Bubble/Hurricane Tube and to protect the electronics of the Bubble/Hurricane Tube. Not only is the Bubble/Hurricane Tube a visual sensory tool it also is auditory and tactile (vibration from the tube, smooth acrylic surface). The 24 podium is ideal for those who are unable to leave their wheelchairs. It allows the user to get as close as possible. Podium contents 1 Wooden podium with controller access holes and interior wooden slats 2 Trap door (in two pieces) for access to the controls 3 Podium Cushion Installation Instructions 1. Place Bubble/Hurricane Tube Podium where it will be in the room. 2. Make sure the mouse hole for the Bubble/Hurricane Tube power cord is accessible when installing the tube. 3. Position the Podium so that the controller access holes are facing outward. 4. Install the Bubble/Hurricane Tube (see instructions below).

2 The following are the instructions for installing a TFH Bubble or Hurricane Tube inside the podium. Secure Bubble/Hurricane Tube Base to Wood Slats 1. Remove both sides of the trap door 2. Remove white plastic cover of Bubble/Hurricane Tube Base. 3. Set the Bubble/Hurricane Tube Base on the interior wooden slats. 4. Place the Bubble/Hurricane Tube in place and loosely screw in bolts but do not install tube just yet. 5. Replace the Trap Door pieces.

Plug in the power cord to the back of the Base and feed through mouse hole in the back of the Podium. 12. Push Podium against wall if that is where it is being positioned. We recommend that Podiums be installed against a wall for security and stability of the unit. 13. Hurricane Tube place foam beads in tube and secure white top cap BEFORE turning on. 14. Plug in and make sure you hear the Bubble/Hurricane Tube pump or fan and that the lights come on. (Don t look directly into the LED lights). Attach Accessories 15. If you have an Interactive Bubble/Hurricane Tube you can insert the cord of the 4-Button Color Controller through the controller access holes in the front of the Podium and connect to the jack in the front of the Bubble/Hurricane Tube Base. 16.

5 MAINTENANCE OF TFH BUBBLE COLUMNS DO NOT USE any premoistened wipes, disinfecting sprays or any alcohol, ammonia, peroxide or bleach based cleaners on the Bubble Column tube. This will deteriorate the acrylic and result in spider cracks which will cause leaks in the Bubble Column. Use ONLY Bubble Column Cleaner (9BCC) on the outside of TFH Bubble Columns. TFH USA recommends that you use Gold Bond Hand Sanitizer when touching our Bubble Columns. Any of the alcohol-based hand sanitizers will transfer that alcohol to the column resulting in spider cracks and leaks. Regular maintenance of the TFH Bubble Column includes MONTHLY: Add a capful of BUBBLE COLUMN ADDITIVE (sold separately - 9BCCA) monthly. EVERY FOUR TO FIVE MONTHS: Empty the entire contents of the bubble column with the DRAINAGE PUMP (sold separately - 9BCPUMP) every four or five months. Remember to add an extra two ounces of anti-algae solution (Bubble Column Additive, see above) every time you change the DISTILLED water in your Bubble Column. CLEAN INSIDE OF BUBBLE COLUMN: Empty entire contents of the bubble column with Drainage Pump. Add a couple inches of DISTILLED water and a drop or two of Dawn dishwashing detergent to the inside. Use a dedicated rag mop to clean the inside of the column. Rinse thoroughly several times to remove all soap residue. CLEAN OUTSIDE OF BUBBLE COLUMN: Recommended EXTERIOR disinfectant: BUBBLE COLUMN CLEANER (9BCC). This is a hospital-grade disinfectant that has been tested on our bubble columns and will not crack the acrylic. This cleaner may leave a cloudly residue which can be cleaned off with water and dried with a soft cloth. REFILL BUBBLE COLUMN: While Bubble Column is running, fill column with DISTILLED water. Adding tap water, even a small amount, will contaminate the Bubble Column and greatly increase the chance of algae growth. Gallons of DISTILLED Water To FILL LINE 2M column 9 gallons (approx.) 1.75M column 8 gallons (approx.) 1.2M columns 5.5 gallons (approx.) Keep extra DISTILLED water on hand to replenish when water evaporates (naturally occurring). If water is 2-3 below FILL LINE check base for leaks and call us immediately. DO NOT TURN OFF BUBBLE COLUMN. BALL SWITCH: To clean and disinfect use Bubble Column Cleaner on Ball Switch.
