starting the circulation system. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury and/ or damage. – Separation Hazard. Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could WARNING result in violent separation of pump components. Strainer cover must be properly secured to pump housing.
Other factors affecting the selection of a filter are the materials used for its construction, the working temperature, and the operating pressure. Hayward® Filters Manufactured from proprietary resins and fiberglass, they are virtually corrosion-proof. The internal fittings (diffuser and lateral system) are manufactured from PVC and ABS.
Disposal of “waste water” must meet local, state and national codes. See Chart on Page 7 for vertical and horizontal clearance. 2.3.3 Piping Connection Kits Hayward Recommended Filter Piping Connections: Filter Model: Port Size Multi-Port Valve Piping Kit Flange P/N 2”...
Damages to filters from transportation that are not noted on the bill of lading are not covered by Hayward’s warranty policy and all costs to repair will be the responsibility of the owner. Never put the sand into the filter until it is in its final working position and all prior steps are complete.

4.2.1 Tank Positioning Chalk lines are recommended for multiple tank installations and should be laid for positioning each tank. The shipping pallet for the filter also serves as an anchor bolt hole template(s) to aid in positioning the filter tank(s). Attention must be paid to the location and routing of the influent, effluent and waste line plumbing when planning the proper location of the filter system.

Installation of the Pressure Gauge The pressure gauge assembly will come in a bag hanging from a diffuser within the filter. Remove all the parts from the bag and apply Teflon tape to all threaded connections. Thread the pressure gauge (1) into gauge tee (2).
Run system as normal and check for leaks. If there is a problem with the test, contact Hayward customer service immediately. If sand is added before the test and there is a problem with the filter, the sand will need to be evacuated in order to inspect for potential damage.
Use the Hayward 3” Multi-Port valve (HCV375) for the HCF343T and HCF363T filters. Use the Hayward 3” Flange Kit (HCF375KIT) for the HCF343F and HCF363F filters. See section 2.3.3. With the pump turned OFF, arrange the valve(s) for filtration. Start pump, open air relief vent valve until solid stream of water is coming out.
