Hazardous voltage.
Can shock, burn,
or cause death.
Disconnect power
before working
on pump or motor.
Water Maintenance:
Keep water level at least two inches above bottom of skimmer opening when
system is not in use. Failure to do so can allow air to enter system, causing
pump to lose prime and filter to entrap air
Maintain pH at 7.2 to 7.6 in pool.
Vacuum Pool:
1. Fill vacuum hose by submerging in water from one end to the other.
2. To vacuum, insert hose into skimmer suction manifold or into vacuum line
in pool wall. See instructions provided by pool builder or manufacturer.
Start pump, making sure it is primed and pumping.
3. After vacuuming, clean pump trap to remove accumulated debris; then
check filter pressure gauge. If reading is 5-7 PSI (35-48kPa) above starting
pressure, clean filter cartridge.
MAINTENANCE
System should only be serviced by qualified personnel.
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock hazard, disconnect power
to motor before working on pump or motor! Use only factory autho-
rized replacement parts when servicing system.
GENERAL
No lubrication or regular mechanical maintenance are needed.
Wash outside of filter with a mild detergent and water. Rinse off with hose.
NOTICE: DO NOT use solvents to clean filter; solvents may damage plastic
components in system.
Check filter pressure gauge regularly to determine when filter cartridge should
be cleaned (5-7 PSI (35-48kPa) increase over clean filter starting pressure).
NOTICE: Some pool disinfectants may clog filter media.To maximize media
life and filter cycle time, closely follow disinfectant manufacturer's instruc-
tions when cleaning pool or filter (see Pages 12 and 13).
Weekly Inspection:
1. Skimmer basket - remove debris.
2. Clean suction trap regularly.
A. Stop pump.
B. Close suction and discharge gate valves to prevent pool from draining
through open trap.
C. Remove trap lid.
D. Remove and clean trap basket. Replace in trap.
3. Check pump for leaks. If found, see Page 14 of this manual.
4. Check pump trap lid for tightness. Do not over-tighten!
