  • Page 3 DANGER:Risk of hazardous pressure. Stand clear of pump and filter during start-up. Pool and spa circulation systems operate under high pressure. When any part of the circulating system (i.e. locking ring, pump, filter, valves, etc.) is serviced, air can enter the system and become pressurized. Pressurized air can cause the pump housing cover filter lid and valves to violently separate which can result in severe personal injury or death.
