  • Page 3: How Your Filter Works

    WARNING THIS FILTER OPERATES UNDER HIGH PRESSURE. WHEN ANY PART OF THE CIRCULATING SYSTEM (e.g., LOCK RING, PUMP, FILTER, VALVES, ETC.) IS SERVICED, AIR CAN ENTER THE SYSTEM AND BECOME PRESSURIZED. PRESSURIZED AIR CAN CAUSE THE LID TO BE BLOWN OFF WHICH CAN RESULT IN SEVERE INJURY, DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
  • Page 4: Installation

    The filter’s function is to remove suspended matter from the water, but it does not sanitize the water. For sparkling clear water, the water must be sanitized as well as balanced. Pool chemistry is a specialized area, and you should consult your local pool service specialist for specific details. In general, proper pool sanita- tion requires a free chlorine level of 1 to 2 PPM and a PH range of 7.2 to 7.6.
  • Page 5: Initial Start-Up And Restart Instructions

    WARNING This filter operates under high pressure. When any part of the circulating system (e.g., lock ring, pump, filter, valves, etc.) is serviced, air can enter the system and become pressur- ized. Pressurized air can cause the lid to be blown off which can result in severe injury, death, or property damage.
  • Page 6: Cleaning Filter

    Your filter has now started its filter cycle. You should check that the water is returning to the pool. Check the system for water leaks. If a leak is found, shut off pump before correcting the leak. As the filter removes the dirt and impurities from the pool water, the accumulation will cause the filter flow to diminish.
  • Page 7: Winterizing The Filter

    WARNING If the filter lock ring is damaged, replace it immediately. This filter operates under high pressure. Replace locking ring if damaged or worn. Failure to replace locking ring can result in the lid separating from the filter which can cause severe injury or death.
