Section 5. Service & Maintenance
To avoid damage to the plastics, do not use lubricant or
sealant on the o-ring. Only soapy water should be used to
install and lubricate the o-ring.
Clean Pump Basket
Debris that accumulates in the pump filter basket
will begin to block the flow of water. For optimal
pump performance, the pump filter basket needs to be
inspected and cleaned on a weekly basis. Depending on
the location and environment of the pool, more frequent
inspection may be required.
1. Inspect the pump filter basket for debris by looking
through the clear pump lid. This can be done
with or without the pump running. If debris has
accumulated, proceed to step 2.
2. Turn off the power to the pump. If the pump is
located below the water level, close the isolation
valves on the suction and discharge sides of the
pump to prevent backflow of water.
3. Turn the locking ring counter-clockwise until
'START' aligns with the ports. Remove the lid.
4. Lift the basket out of the pump.
5. Dispose of the debris and thoroughly clean the
basket, making sure all the holes are open. Using
a garden hose, spray the basket from the outside to
help clear the holes. Remove any remaining debris.
6. Replace the basket in the pump by aligning the
opening with the suction pipe. If aligned properly,
the basket will drop easily into place. Do not force
it into place.
A misaligned basket will cause the lid to be improperly
seated, allowing an air leak, which could result in pump
damage.
7. Remove the lid seal and remove debris around the
lid seal seat, as this can allow air to leak into the
system. Clean the lid seal and place it on the lid.
8. Replace the lid with locking ring. Hand-tighten the
lid to make an air-tight seal. Do not use any tools to
tighten the lid: hand-tighten only.
9. Verify that all valves have been returned to the
proper position for normal operation.
10. Open the pressure release valve on the filter, and
make sure it is clean and ready for operation.
11. Turn on the power to the pump. Once all the air has
been evacuated from the filter, close the pressure
release valve.
