INSTALLATION NOTES:
1. Make sure the filter is worked under the work pressure, and using a pressure cont
rol valve when the system
using a booster pump.
2. If the pump position is higher than the water level, it requires to install the back water control valve.
3. If the pump position is lower than the water level, it requires installing an isolation valve. It could stop
the water return back when people do the general inspection.
4. Reducing the connect adapters and hose connecting bending as less as possible. Decreasing the water flow
scrub, it could reach the maximum effective.
5. Ensure solvents are not excessively applied to fittings as this could run into O-ring and create sealing
problems.
6. Do not over tighten fittings or adapters.
H
OW TO USE
1. Inspect that all t
he connections have been made are correct and secure.
2. Depress the top mount valve handle and rotate to the BACKWASH position.
3. Prime and start the pump according to the pump instructions.
NOTE: ALL SUCTION AND DISCHARGE VALVES MUST BE OPENING WHEN STARTING THE SYSTEM. FAILURE TO
DO SO COULD CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY.
MAKE SURE THE FILTER
VESSEL ARE FULL FILL THE WATER BEFORE START UP THE PUMP. OR IT WILL CAUSE
THE PUMP DAMAGED.
4. Once water flow is steady out the waste line, run the pump for at
least 2 minutes. The initial back-
washing of the filter is recommended to remove any impurities of fine sand particles in the sand media.
5. Turn pump off and set valve to RINSE position. Start pump and operate until water in sight glass is clear----
about 1/2 to 1 minute. Turn pump off, set valve to FILTER position and restart pump. Your filter is now
operating in the normal filter mode, filtering particles from the pool water.
NOTE
S:
1. Note the init
ial pressure gauge reading when the filter is clean. (it will vary from pool depending upon the
pump and general piping system). As the filter removes dirt and impurities from the pool water, the
accumulation in the filter will cause the pressure to rise and flow to diminish. When the pressure gauge
reading is 8-10 PSI(0.55-0.69 BAR) higher than the initial “clean” pressure you noted, it is the time to
backwash (clean) the filter.
2. IMPORTANT: To prevent unnecessary strain on piping system and valving, always shut off pump before
switching filter control valve position.
3. To prevent damage to the pump and filter and for proper operation of the system, clean pump strainer and
skimmer baskets regularly.
