3.3 STARTING UP AND PRIMING
▪ Position of valves: suction closed, delivery closed.
1 - Cut off the electricity supply to the pump.
2 - Fill the pump body with water (imperative)
3 - Switch the electricity back on.
4 - Start the pump
5 - Immediately, open the suction valve and slowly the delivery valve
▪ The pump should be primed within a few minutes; if not, start again.

3.4 OPERATION

▪ The pump should operate without making any noise or vibrations.
▪ Check for any leaks on a regular basis.
▪ Clean the prefilter basket on a regular basis.
▪ Always stop the pump before handling the valve on your filter (6-way) on the swimming pool's hydraulic circuit.
▪ This electrical pool pump is fitted as standard with a flexible filter bag inserted in the pre-filter basket. This is intended
to trap fine impurities (gravel, sand, pine needles, etc.) which can often prevent pumps from operating correctly. When
using the pump for the first time, when there is sand or pine needles present in the pool, or if a manual broom has been
used, these are situations where the use of the flexible filter bag is essential. We therefore advise you to leave this option
permanently in position and, of course, to check and clean it regularly (at least once a week). If the electrical pump is
returned to us for after-sales service due to a blockage of the turbine from impurities larger than the flexible filter bag's
straining capability, the item will not be repaired under warranty.
You can obtain additional flexible filter bags from your usual supplier.
3.5 INTERVENTION
Risk of injury to persons without the required qualifications. Repair and maintenance work must be carried out by
specially trained personnel.
▪ When working on the pump:
- Cut off the electricity supply
- Make sure the switch is set to "off"
- Wait for the motor to have come to a complete stop.
▪ The mechanical seal is a vital component of the pump. It should be replaced with the utmost care. It is advisable to
contact a specialist for this task.
▪ Disassembly/Re-assembly: Take the necessary precautions to avoid trapping your hands or feet.
- Clean and check all parts before reassembling them.
- Replace all worn or damaged parts (imperative).
- Make sure the seals are clean and in the correct position. We recommend you only reposition new seals.
