WARNING: RISK OF ENTRAPMENT HAZARD.
Pool and spa pumps produce high levels of suction, which can pose extreme danger if a person comes in close
proximity to an open pool or spa drain or if a drain cover is loose, cracked, broken, or missing:
Hair Entrapment - Hair can be entangled in suction outlet cover.
Body Suction Entrapment - A differential pressure applied to a large portion of the body or limbs
can result in an entrapment.
Disembowelment - A negative pressure applied directly to the intestines through
an unprotected suction outlet sump or suction outlet cover which is damaged, broken,
cracked, missing, or unsecured can result in evisceration/disembowelment.
Mechanical Entrapment - There is potential for jewelry, swimsuits, hair decorations, fingers, toes,
or knuckles to be caught in an opening of a suction outlet cover, resulting in mechanical
entrapment.
WARNING:
1. When outlets are small enough to be blocked by a person, a minimum of two functioning suction outlets per
pump must be installed. Suction outlets in the same plane (i.e. floor or wall), must be installed a minimum of three
feet (3') [0.91 meter] apart, as measured from near point to near point.
2. Dual suction fittings shall be placed in such locations and distances to avoid "dual blockage" by a user.
3. Dual suction fittings shall not be located on seating areas or on the backrest for such seating areas.
4. Failure to keep suction outlet components clear of debris, such as leaves, dirt, hair, paper, and other material can
result in an increased potential for suction entrapment.
5. Installation of a vacuum release or vent system, which relieves entrapping suction, is recommended.
WARNING: RISK OF PRESSURE HAZARD.
1. When pressure testing a system with water, air is often trapped in the system during the filling process. This air
will compress when the system is pressurized. Should the system fail, this trapped air can propel debris at a high
speed and cause injury. Every effort to remove trapped air must be taken, including opening the bleed valve on the
filter and loosening the pump basket lid while filling the pump.
2. Trapped air in the system can cause the filter lid to be blown off, which can result in death, serious injury, or
property damage. Be sure all air is properly purged out of the system before operating.
3. DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR TO PRESSURE TEST OR CHECK FOR LEAKS.
NOTICE: Do not start pump dry! Running the pump dry for any length of time will cause severe damage
for the pump and will void the warranty.
