SECTION 1 EQUIPMENT OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
1/1 LOCATION
1. Locate the pump as close to the pool as practical.
Consult local codes for minimum distance between pool
and pump.
2. The piping should be as direct and free from turns or
bends as possible, as elbows and other fittings greatly
increase friction losses.
3. Place pump on a solid foundation which provides a rigid
and vibration-free support so that it is readily accessible for
service and maintenance.
4. Though the pump is designed for outdoor use, it is
advised to protect the pump from continuous direct heat.
Install the pump in a well ventilated location protected from
excessive moisture (flooding, sprinklers, rain downspouts,
etc.).
5. Protect the pump against flooding and excess moisture,
prevent foreign objects from clogging air circulation around
motor. All motors generate heat that must be removed by
providing proper ventilation.
6. DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this pump. DO NOT store
pool chemicals near the pump.
7. DO NOT remove any safety alert labels such as
DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION. Keep safety labels
in good condition and replace missing or damaged labels.
8. Provide access for future services by leaving a clear
area around the pump. Allow plenty of space above the
pump to remove lid and basket for cleaning.
1/2 INSTALLATION
1. This pump is designed as a direct replacement for pumps
made by several manufacturers. It can also be installed as
a new pump with easy to connect unions. Refer to Figure
1 & Table 1 for various connection options.
2. Use Figure 1 to select the appropriate suction fitting
(part# 153), discharge fitting (part# 156), pump risers
(part# 182.1 & 182.2), and motor supports (part# 920/921).
3. Install the 76 x 6mm o-ring (part #918) on the back of
suction fitting. Secure the suction fitting to the front of the
pump casing (part #101) using four (4) 6 x 22mm tapping
screws (part #917).
CAUTION: Screws should be HAND TIGHT. DO NOT
use drills or pneumatic tools. DO NOT over tighten!
4. Install the 70 x 6mm o-ring (part# 919) on the back of
the discharge fitting. Secure the discharge fitting to the top
of the pump casing (part# 101) using four (4) 6 x 22mm
tapping screws (part# 917). CAUTION: Screws should
be HAND TIGHT. DO NOT use drills or pneumatic tools.
DO NOT over tighten!
5. Insert the pump risers (part# 182.1 & 182.2) into base
plate (part# 894). See Exploded View.
6. Insert the motor supports (part #920/921) into the base
plate (part #894). See Exploded View.
7. When connecting pipework to pump with threaded ports
it is recommended that thread seal tape be used. If the
suction pipe is not sealed correctly, the pump will not prime
properly and will pump small volumes of water or none at
all.
8. When installing the pump, care should be taken to
see that the suction line is below water level to a point
immediately beneath and the pump to ensure quick priming
via a flooded suction line. The height between the pump
and the water level should not be more than five (5) feet.
BONDING: As required by National Electrical Code Article
680-22, the pump motor must be electrically bonded to
the pool structure (reinforced bars, etc.) by a solid copper
conductor not smaller than #8 AWG (8.4 mm
external copper bonding lug on the pump motor.
GROUNDING: Permanently ground the pump motor
using a conductor of appropriate size. Connect to the #10
green headed ground screw provided inside the motor
terminal box.
For more information about the motor operation
refer to the motor manual.
NOTE: DO NOT connect to electric power supply until the
unit is permanently grounded
