directed by manufacturer. Do not allow cleaning chemicals to mix with or to
come in contact with chlorine, bromines, other chemicals, or chemical feed
devices.

SYSTEM INSPECTION

General:
Wash the outside of the filter with a mild detergent and water. Rinse off with a
hose.
NOTICE: DO NOT use solvents to clean the filter; solvents may damage plas-
tic components in the system.
NOTICE: Open the filter air release valve and release all air from the filter
each time the pump is stopped and restarted.
Weekly Inspection:
1. Remove debris from the pool skimmer basket.
2. Stop the pump; open the air release valve to release all pressure.
3. Remove the trap cover and basket; remove debris.
4. Check the pump for leaks. If found, see the pump owner's manual.
5. Replace the trap basket and the cover. Tighten the cover securely hand
tight. DO NOT use a lid wrench to tighten it.
6. Start the pump. When the filter air release valve runs a solid stream of
water, close the valve.
7. When the system has returned to normal operation, check the filter pres-
sure. If the filter pressure is 10 PSI (69kPa) or more higher than the initial
startup pressure, the filter needs cleaning. See "Cleaning the Filter", Page 9.
