FILTER PUMP STATIONARY MOUNTING OPTION
There are three mounting holes located at the bottom of the filter pump base. These holes are
provided because various country's regulations, especially in the European community, require the filter
pump to be secured to the ground or to a base in a permanent upright position.
For model 604, these three holes form a triangle pattern and are 135mm from each other. For model 638R,
these three holes form a triangle pattern and are 145mm from each other. The holes are slotted with a 7mm
width.
The filter pump can be mounted on a cement base or onto a wooden structure to prevent accidental falling
over. Total assembly must exceed 18kg. The drawings on the following show two possible ways of upright
mounting.

CLEANING OR REPLACING FILTER CARTRIDGE
It is recommended that the filter cartridge be replaced at least every 2 weeks.
Regularly monitor the filter clogging level.
1. Make sure filter pump is not operating. Disconnect line cord.
2. To prevent water from escaping the pool, unscrew the pool inlet nozzle (10) and strainer grid (11) from
the strainer connectors and insert the hat-like plugs into the strainer connectors.
3. In a counter-clockwise motion, remove the filter housing collar (12) and threaded cover (3). Be careful
not to lose the cover seal (4).
4. Remove filter cartridge (5) to clean it. The filter may be cleaned from the spray from a water hose.
5. Use judgement as to whether cartridge needs to be replaced. Only use the original Intex cartridge for
replacement. See "Parts Reference" section for detail.
6. Return cartridge to filtering position.
7. Return the seal (4) and threaded cover (3) to their original positions and in a clockwise direction
rescrew the housing collar (12) onto the filter housing.
8. After service, open the air release valve, remove the plugs, allow any air to escape through the valve
before tightening the valve again and replace the pool inlet nozzle (10) and strainer grid (11). The pump
is now primed with water again and may be turned on.
9. Check the inlet and outlet openings regularly to ensure they are not obstructed thus preventing a good
filtration.
10. The disposal of any used filter media should be in accordance with applicable local regulation and
legislation.
