5.8 Production Output Display Meter
• When the unit is turned on full (Black Output Control Knob fully clockwise) the needle
should reach the top of the GREEN, this shows that the water has the correct conductivity
and the salt level is correct.
• If the needle is slightly low (in the GREEN area below 90% mark), it may be that the water is
very cold, more salt may be needed or possibly a faulty Cell (see Troubleshooting). In cold
months it is normal to operate as low as 50% and more salt is not needed.
• If the needle reaches the RED then you have either just enough salt (if just reaches RED) or
too much salt (if it goes in to the RED). If unsure refer to your nearest Pool Pro Professional
for a water test before adding more salt.

• The platinum coating on the Cell plates may not last as long on the hard setting as a
percentage of the wear on the coating is related to the number of current switches.
5.10 Start Up Procedure
• Ensure lOamp wall outlet supply switch is turned "OFF".
• Hard/Soft Switch in "SOFT" position (or "HARD" if required - see 5.9).
• "OUTPUT" Control Knob turned fully counter clockwise.

• Turn the lOamp wall outlet supply switch "ON".
• The pump should start up and prime.
• Allow the pump to run for 2 minutes and repair any leaks if needed.
• Turn the Cell Switch to "ON" and slowly turn the "OUTPUT" Control Knob clockwise until
