Instructions / Assembly

replace as necessary.
Pumps have self-lubricating motor bearings and shaft seals. No lubrication is necessary.
Keep motor clean. Insure air vents are free from obstruction to avoid damage. Do NOT use water to hose
off motor.
Occasionally, shaft seals must be replaced, due to wear or damage. Replace with genuine seal assembly kit.
See “Shaft Seal Change Instructions” in this manual.
Storage/Winterization
WARNING
Separatio n Hazard.
Do not purge the system with comp
ressed air. Purging the system with compressed air can cause components to
explode, with risk of severe injury or death to anyone nearby. Use only a low pressure (below 5 PSI), high volume
blower when air purging the pump, filter, or piping.
ATTENTION
Allowing the pump to freeze will void the warranty.
ATTENTION
Use ONLY propylene glycol as antifreeze in your pool/spa system. Propylene glycol is
nontoxic and will not damage plastic system components; other anti-freezes
are highly toxic and may damage
plastic components in the system.
Drain all water from pump and piping when expecting freezing temperatures or when storing pump for a long time
(see instructions below).
Keep motor dry and covered during storage. To avoid condensation/corrosion problems, do NOT cover or wrap
pump with plastic film or bags.
Storing Pump for Winterization
WARNING
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock hazard, turn OFF power to motor before draining
p
ump. Failure to disconnect power may result in serious personal injury or death.
1. Drain water level below all inlets to the pool.
2. Remove drain plugs from bottom of strainer body, and remove strainer cover from strainer housing.
3. Disconnect pump from mounting pad, wiring system (after power has been turned OFF), and piping system.
4. Once the pump is empty of water, re-install the strainer cover and drain plugs. Store pump in a dry area.
