Technical support

WARNING — Always disconnect power to the pool pump at the circuit

breaker before servicing the pump. Failure to do so could result in

death or serious injury to serviceman, pool users or others due to

electric shock.

Read all servicing instructions before working on the pump.

WARNING — DO NOT open the strainer pot if pump fails to prime or if pump has been

operating without water in the strainer pot. Pumps operated in these

circumstances may experience a build up of vapor pressure and may

contain scalding hot water. Opening the pump may cause serious

personal injury. In order to avoid the possibility of personal injury, make

sure the suction and discharge valves are open and strainer pot

temperature is cool to touch, then open with extreme caution.
