Set Up Instructions (cont.)
Strainer & Plunger Valve Set Up (18' and above AGP)
The Saltwater System/Filter Pump assembly includes two (2) strainer-control mechanisms that are to
be installed in the pool liner's two (2) pre-cut holes. The strainer grid prevents large objects from
jamming and/or damaging the filter pump and the plunger valve assembly prevents water from flowing
into the filter pump while the filter cartridge is being placed or cleaned. Install the strainer and plunger
valve before inflating the pool liner top ring.

1. Grasp the strainer and plunger valve mechanism.
2. In a counter-clockwise motion unscrew plunger valve union from the threaded strainer connector
(06NF-02). Be careful not to lose the step rubber washer (06NF-05). Place the plunger valve on the
ground in a safe place.
3. In a counter-clockwise motion unscrew the strainer nut (5F04) from the threaded connector
(06NF-02). Leave the flat washer (5F03) on the connector (06NF-02).
4. From the inside of the pool liner insert the connector (06NF-02) into one of the pre-cut holes with
the washer remaining on the connector to be placed against the inside of the liner wall.
5. With the flat side of the strainer nut (5F04) facing the outside wall of the liner in a clockwise motion
screw the strainer nut (5F04) back onto the threaded connector (06NF-02). Before assembly,
lubricate the threads with a petroleum jelly.
6. Finger tighten the strainer grid (5F01) and the strainer nut (5F04) onto the threaded connector
(06NF-02).
7. Grasp the plunger valve assembly. Make sure the step washer (06NF-05) is in place.
8. In a clockwise motion screw the plunger valve union back onto the threaded connector (06NF-02).
9. Examine the plunger valve to see if the handle is pushed fully down to the "0/1" position. If not,
then grasp the handle at the top and push down turning the handle in a clockwise direction until the
plastic protruding notch anchors in the "0/1" position. This will prevent water from flowing out during
filling.
10. Repeat steps 1 through 9 for the 2nd liner pre-cut hole.
11. The pool liner is now ready to fill with water. Consult the above-ground-pool owner's manual for
filling instructions.
