OPERATION (CON'T)
The motor is equipped with an internal thermal protection circuit to guard
against overheating. The maximum ambient temperature for motor
operation must not exceed rating on motor model plate.
If the thermal overload protection in the motor trips or if the GFCI trips,
determine the reason and correct the problem before re-starting pump.
Do NOT operate pump with closed or partially
closed suction or discharge valves.
WATER CHEMISTRY
Proper and consistent use of chemicals is necessary to manage a water
system. Chlorine is the most commonly used chemical to provide clean,
sanitary water. Daily administration of dry or liquid chlorine (calcium or
sodium hypochlorite) is essential.
Maintain the correct level of acidity or alkalinity
of the pool water. Readings above pH 7.0 are alkaline. A
pH 7.0 is neutral. Readings below pH 7.0 are acidic. A desirable range is 7.2 to 7.4
MAINTENANCE
1. Motors are self-lubricating, no additional lubrication is required.
2. Visually inspect motor for blockage of air vents on motor shell. Remove
any debris after shutting off the breaker.
3. Replace worn seals.
Disconnect, tag and lock out
power source before attempting
to install, service, relocate or perform any maintenance.
HAIR AND LINT STRAINER
1. Switch off the power.
2. Close the valves in the suction and return line.
3. Turn strainer cover counterclockwise and remove strainer cover.
4. Lift strainer basket away from the pump.
WARNING This is the Safety Alert Symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages
that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.
Avoid Injury. Read and Understand Owner's Manual Before Operating this Product.
SHOCK HAZARD - Disconnect and lock out power before servicing. GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) required. Unit must be
properly grounded. All electrical components in the system must be bonded together for proper grounding. Location must be well-
ventilated, out of sun, out of sleeping areas, away from flammable liquids. Keep out of wet areas. Close valves before opening the
strainer cover and drain housing before opening pump housing.
ENTRAPMENT HAZARD - Pumps installed with only one suction outlet can trap, disembowel and drown swimmers. Install pump only
in a pool plumbing system that meets the ASME/ANSI A112.19.8 requirements. Two suction outlets at least 3 feet apart are required.
All suction fittings must be agency approved for anti-entrapment, anti-hair entanglement, correctly installed and not damaged. Do not
use pool if drain or outlet covers are broken or missing.
MECHANICAL HAZARD - Contains moving parts. Switch off and lock-out power before working on pump. Pump designed for
permanent pool applications only. Any other use could be hazardous.
EXPLOSION HAZARD - Use water to pressure test. Compressed air could cause pump to explode violently. Securely tighten and
center the basket clamp ring prior to pressure testing system. Bleed off all trapped air in system before pressure testing. Never use air
or gas to detect leaks. Do not use a leak test pressure greater than 25 PSI higher pressure will permanently damage pump. Use only
piping and fittings that are designed for pools. Never leave water in the pump or filter during freezing weather. Ice will cause housing
to break.
WATER UNDER PRESSURE - Water under pressure could cause serious bodily injury. Keep people and pets away from fountains,
jets and outlets while filling pool or spa.
5. Clean and then reposition the basket into the pump. Take care to seat the
basket properly.
6. Clean the o-ring and re-lubricate with petroleum jelly if necessary.
7. Clean o-ring seats on the cover and pump.
8. Refit the cover and strainer locking ring. Hand tighten only.
9. Open the valves then switch on power to return pump to operation.
WATER LEAKING AROUND MOTOR
A water leak in the area of the motor to pump connection indicates a
mechanical seal failure and a shock hazard. Take pump out of service and
replace seal immediately to avoid damage to other components and to
reduce risk of electric shock. Contact customer service at 1-800-237-0987.
WINTERIZING
Always protect system from freezing temperatures. Drain the system if there
is a possibility of freezing. To drain the system:
1. Units with a filter:
.
a. Sand filter: Backwash for 3 to 5 minutes and then set dial valve to
winterize position.
b. Cartridge filter: Clean the filter element and store in dry area.
2. Drain system by removing both drain plugs and removing strainer
cover. Removing strainer cover will facilitate draining also. Store drain
plugs in strainer basket, and re-attach strainer cover.
SPRING START-UP
1. Clean and replace drain plugs.
2. Lubricate strainer o-ring with petroleum jelly if needed.
3. Clean o-ring seat, strainer basket and install o-ring in lid.
4. Fill strainer body with water and refer to the Operation Section (Page 4).
