Filter mount must:
Provide weather and freezing protection.
Provide space and lighting for easy access for routine
maintenance. (See Figure 1 for space requirements.)
Provide ventilation and drainage for pump.

FIGURE 2 – Assemble Air Bleed Tube as shown.
Piping:
NOTICE: Make sure that the lter and all piping can be
drained for winterizing. See "Winterizing", Page 6.
NOTICE: Overtightening can crack lter ports.
Use thread seal tape, on all threaded connections
of plastic pipe and ttings.
DO NOT use pipe compounds on lter; it will cause the
connection to crack. Do not use sealant on unions –
assemble them dry and hand tight.
Support pipe independently to prevent strains on lter.
Keep piping tight and free of leaks: pump suction line
leaks may cause trapped air in lter tank or loss of prime
at pump.

INITIAL START-UP
Be sure pump is OFF before starting procedure.
Do not operate lter at more than 50 PSI
(345 kPa).
1. Securely lock the Posi-Ring
CLOCKWISE until it "clicks" past the safety latch (see
Figure 3). Stop turning as soon as the ring clicks past the
latch. The ring may feel slightly loose, but it will tighten
up when pump is on and lter is under pressure.
2. Install the pressure gauge and the air release valve
(See Figure 3) on the tank lid.

the safety latch.
3. Fill the trap on the pump with water.
4. Open the air release valve on top of the lter.
5. Open valves separating lter from the rest of the
system.
6. Start the pump to purge air from the system.
7. When a steady stream of water comes from the air
release valve, close the valve.
NOTICE: Leaking around the Posi-Ring
that the ring is not fully locked. In this case, proceed
as follows:
A. Stop the pump and open the air release valve to
release any pressure within the lter.
B. Remove the drain plug and drain all water from
the lter.
C. Rotate the Posi-Ring
behind the safety latch (see Figure 3).
