Use and Care Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

This lter operates under high pressure. When any part of the circulating system (e.g., clamp, pump, lter,

valves, etc.) is serviced, air can enter the system and become pressurized. Pressurized air can cause the

lid or control valve to separate which may result in serious injury, death, or property damage. To avoid this

potential hazard, follow these instructions.

1. Before repositioning valves and before beginning the assembly,

disassembly, or adjustment of the clamp or any other service of the circulating system:

(a) Turn the pump off and shut off any automatic controls to ensure the system is not inadvertently started

during the servicing;

(b) Open manual air relief valve;

2. Whenever installing the lter clamp, follow the lter valve and clamp installation instructions exactly.

3. Once service on the circulating system is complete, follow system restart instructions exactly.

4. Maintain circulation system properly. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

Failure to operate your lter system or inadequate ltration can cause poor water clarity obstructing

visibility in your pool and can allow diving into or on top of obscured objects, which can cause serious

personal injury or drowning.

This lter operates under pressure. With the valve clamped properly and operated without air in the

system, this lter will operate in a safe manner. Air entering the lter and the valve not clamped

correctly can cause the valve to separate, which could cause serious personal injury and/or property

damage.

Always turn pump off before changing valve positions. Changing valve positions while the pump is running

can damage the control valve, which may cause serious injury or property damage.

Chemical fumes and/or spills can cause serious corrosion to the lter and pump structural components.

Structurally weakened components can cause lter, pump or valve attachments to separate and could

cause serious bodily injury or property damage.

High voltage can cause serious or fatal injury. Always install a suitable GFCI at the power source of this

unit as an added safety precaution. Article 681-31 of the NEC requires that a GFCI be used if this pump

is used with a storable pool.

Never work on the pump while it is running or power is still connected. High voltage can cause

serious or fatal injury. A suitable ground fault interrupter should always be installed at the power supply

source of this unit. Be sure to ground the motor before connecting to electrical AC power supply. Failure

to ground the motor can cause serious or fatal electrical shock hazard. DO NOT ground to a gas supply

pipe line.

FOR CORD AND PLUG CONNECTED UNITS: Connect only to a ground type receptacle protected

by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualied electrician if you cannot verify that the

receptacle is protected by GFCI. Do Not Bury Cord. Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn mowers,

hedge trimmers, and other equipment. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace damaged cord

immediately. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, Do Not Use an extension cord to connect unit to

electrical supply; provide a properly located outlet.
