Page 8: Pump Wiring
Pump Wiring Make sure power is off from the source before installation. The pump must be wired for the proper voltage by a licensed electrician in accordance with all applicable electrical codes. The voltage, ampere draw, and frequency are listed on the pump nameplate. WARNING: Do not exceed nameplate voltage. - Page 9 Hydro Massage Pumps Installation & Operating Manual General Operating Instructions Note The Water System-equipped tub system may be operated with TOUCHSTONE® Electronic Controls. For specific operations related to a tub equipped with TOUCHSTONE, please refer to the Dual Load Controller Manual MANCIMC296, Master Bath Controller MANCMBC298 or the document supplied either with the tub or from your Sales Representative.
- Page 10 General Operating Instructions (continued) Additional Notes on Pump Operations The pump is not self-priming. In order to avoid damage to the seal in the pump, always fill the bathtub to at least 1” above the highest jet in the system before starting the pump. This will not only ensure that the pump will not run in a dry condition, but will also avoid water from being discharged outside of the bathtub and causing a slipping hazard on the floor.
