Hayward Super II Owner's Manual

Super II Pump
Your Hayward self-priming centrifugal pump has been quality-built
and engineered to give you many years of efficient, dependable,
corrosion-free service.
The advanced design reduces operation and maintenance to
simple, common-sense procedures.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. WARNING - To reduce risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
2. CAUTION - This pump is intended for use with permanently installed pools and may also be used with hot tubs and spas. It is not
intended for storable pools. A permanently installed pool is constructed in or on the ground and cannot be readily disassembled for
storage. A storable pool is constructed so that it may be readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity.
3. If installed within an outer enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa, adequate ventilation and free circulation of air must
be provided to prevent overheating of the motor.
4. Applicable electrical codes may require that motor be bonded to other bonding parts using a #8 AWG or larger conductor.
5. This three-phase pump is not equipped with a thermal overload. Protection of motor is dependent on installation of a properly sized
motor starter with pump. Consult qualified electrical service personnel.
6. Correct rotation for this pump is counterclockwise from pump end or clockwise from electrical lead end. If upon installation motor
GENERAL TIPS ON PUMP INSTALLATION
Locate the pump as close to pool as practical and run
suction line as direct as possible.
friction loss through pipe and fittings.
Never overtighten pipe connections—use only pipe sealants
formulated specifically for plastics, i.e., Teflon tape,
Permatex No. 2, etc.
Suction line should have continuous slope from lowest point
in line. Make sure suction joints are tight. Suction pipe
should be as large or larger than discharge pipe.
Damp, non-ventilated locations should be avoided. Motors
require free circulation of air to aid in cooling.
Insure that the electrical supply available agrees with the
motor's voltage, phase and cycle, and that wire size is
adequate for the HP rating and distance from power source.
Motor must always be properly grounded. If cord connected,
use only a properly grounded outlet. Electrical circuits must
be protected by proper size ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) as required by applicable electrical codes. All
electrical wiring must be performed by qualified personnel,
and must conform to local codes and regulations. Three
Phase Motors are supplied with either six (6) or nine (9)

including the following: Failure to follow instructions may result in injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This cuts down on
motor leads that must be connected according to the wiring
schematic provided on the motor data plate for the correct
field supply voltage. Three Phase Motors require the
installation of a properly sized magnetic motor starter to
provide overload protection for the motor. Consult qualified
electrical personnel.
STARTING AND PRIMING INSTRUCTIONS
Fill strainer/housing with water to suction pipe level. Never
operate the pump without water. Water acts as a coolant
and lubricant for the mechanical shaft seal.
Open all suction and discharge lines and valves, as well as
air bleed (if available) on filter. (The air that is to be
displaced from the suction line must have some place to go.)
Caution: All suction and discharge valves must be open
when starting system. Failure to do so could cause
severe personal injury and/or property damage.
Turn on power and allow a reasonable time for priming. Five
minutes is not unreasonable. (Priming time depends on
suction lift and horizontal length of suction piping). If the
pump will not start, or will not prime, see TROUBLE
SHOOTING GUIDE on back page.
