Hayward SwimPro Series Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. WARNING - To reduce risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
2. CAUTION - This pump is U.L. listed for permanently installed pools and may also be used with hot tubs and spas if so marked.
It is not U.L. listed for storable pools. A permanently installed pool is constructed in or on the ground and cannot be readily
disassembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so that it may be readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to
its original integrity.
3. If installed within an outer enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa, adequate ventilation and free circulation of air must
be provided to prevent overheating of the motor.
4. Use motor bonding lug to connect the motor with other bonding parts using a #8 AWG conductor as required by electrical codes.
NOTE: If your pump is equipped with a 3 ft. (1 m) cord and twist lock plug, items 5 through 8 apply.
5. WARNING - Risk of Electric Shock. Connect only to a grounding-type receptacle protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI). Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot verify that the receptacle is protected by a GFCI.
6.
Do not bury cord. Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment.
7.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace damaged cord immediately.
8. WARNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use extension cord to connect unit to electric supply; provide a properly
located outlet.
For best pump performance, locate the system below the pool water line and as
close to the pool as practical. If you own an above-ground pool, NOTE:
ANSI/NSPI-4 Article V, standard for above-ground and
on-ground pools, advises that components such as the filtration
system, pumps and heater be positioned so as to prevent their
being used as means of access to the pool by young children.
Make sure suction joints are tight. Suction pipe should be as large or larger than
discharge pipe.
Damp, non-ventilated locations should be avoided. Motors require free circulation
of air to aid in cooling.
Ensure that the electrical supply available agrees with the motor's voltage, phase
and cycle, and that wire size is adequate for the HP (KW) rating and distance
from power source. Motor must always be properly grounded. If cord connected,
use only a properly grounded outlet.
including the following: Failure to follow instructions may result in injury.

NOTE: Electrical circuits must be protected by proper size ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) as required by applicable electrical
codes. All electrical wiring must be performed by qualified
personnel, and must conform to local codes and regulations.
Fill strainer housing with water to suction pipe level. Never operate the pump
without water. Water acts as a coolant and lubricant for the mechanical shaft seal.
CAUTION: All suction and discharge valves must be open when
starting the system. Failure to do so could cause severe personal
injury and/or property damage.
Turn on power and allow a reasonable time for priming. Priming time depends on
suction lift and horizontal length of suction piping. If the pump will not start, or will
not prime, see TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE on back page.
