Once encased in concrete, these rods will serve as a suitable hanger.

Remove the hardware from the PVC bracket. In this application the bracket will serve primarily as a tem- plate. Position the bracket on the pool wall where the Fastlane Pro will be placed.

It is at the junction box where these hose connections occur. The hydraulic sub hoses from the Fastlane Pro to the junction box are 3/8" (9,5mm) and the run hoses from the junction box to the Power Unit are 1/2" (13mm). The junction box MUST be above the pool's water level to avoid drainage of overfull pool water through the PVC conduit.
