3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please note: there can be specific needs to use
filtration kits nearby swimming pools, garden ponds
or such places.
The pump should be placed on a flat, solid foundation,
high enough to prevent flooding of the motor.
Install the filter and pump in a sheltered location,
ensuring ventilation and adequate access for
servicing. Place the filter in its permanent loca-
tion. Make sure you can reach the valve easily. Then
fix the piping. Use only plastic piping. Size all piping
adequately and keep the number of elbows to a
minimum. Use a direct and short suction line with
continuous slope in order to avoid long priming times.
It is essential that the suction line is free of air leaks.
The suction line should always have at least the same
size as the suction inlet of the pump.
4. OPERATION
Look inside and check lower distribution system (6) on
broken or loose laterals (5). Fill tank for 1/3 with water.
Before filling the filter, sand guide (10) should be on
the pipe (4). Fill the filter with the specified quantity of
gravel, afterwards with sand. Remove the sand guide.
Put some vaseline on the O-ring (7) of the valve (8).
Assemble the valve (8) to the filter and tighten with
the clamp ring (9). Connect the piping. Turn the valve
into position "Rinse" and start the pump for at least 1
minute. Before starting the pump, the strainer basket
should be filled with water up to the level of the suc-
tion line. Lubricate the lid O-ring with silicone each
time the lid is removed. Energize the motor, the pump
will prime. The priming time depends on the suction
lift and distance to the pool. Five minutes is a reason-
able time. Pump will not lift more than 2 meter.
If pump does not prime, see troubleshooting guide.
CAUTION: NEVER SHIFT VALVE HANDLE POSITION
WHILE PUMP IS RUNNING. NEVER DISASSEMBLE
VALVE WHILE FILTER IS UNDER PRESSURE.
