In Start Up

Once the filter system has been properly assembled, the sand chamber filled with sand and the hoses connected
as described above, you may begin with filtration. However, we recommend that you clean and prepare the new
sand that is in the sand chamber
and tiny sand particles that may exist in the
your pool. To clean the sand, please follow the instructions below.
Do not plug the system in until advised to do so below.
1) Make certain the pump is not plugged in to a power supply.
2) Start with the valve in the 5 Closed position.
3) If you haven't done so already, fill your pool with
above the top of the hose intake
4) Release the shut off valve at the intake port
mer), remove the plug to allow the water to flow into the intake hose
5) With the filter-pump system installed in a location level lower than your
tomatically flow into the pump-filter
6) Allow the filter tank to fill with water.
7) Check for leaks and make any necessary adjustments. Because of tolerances (in consequence of the
production process), it is possible that it may be necessary to use a Teflon tape addtitionally which has
to be wrapped around the connections, before the connection tube is fixed, in order to correct these tol-
erances.
8) Follow the backwash process described below.
