The booster pump should prime. The time it takes to
prime will depend on the elevation and length of pipe
used on the suction supply pipe.
7.
If the booster pump does not prime and all the
instructions to this point have been followed, check for a
suction leak.
CAUTION
Never run the booster pump without water. Running
the pump "dry" for any length of time can cause
severe damage to both the pump and motor and will
void the warranty.

The pump must be protected when freezing
temperatures are expected. Allowing the pump to
freeze will cause severe damage and void the
warranty.

Installation and Operation Manual
®
™
Ensure that there is power to the pump using a digital multimeter set on AC
voltage. The power supplied to the pump must be within 10% of the nameplate
voltage
Check the pump wiring and compare it to the supply voltage. If the pump is wired
for 115VAC operation and the supply voltage is 230VAC it will damage the motor.
Check the capacitor. If the capacitor is bad replace it and try starting the pump.
Check the drive shaft by inserting a 1/4" hex key through the center opening in
the fan cover. If the drive shaft does not spin with ease, it may be seized and may
need to be replaced.
CAUTION
Never run the booster pump without the cleaner
connected. Running the pump without the cleaner
connected will cause damage to the pump impeller
and will void the warranty. Using this pump for any
purpose other than running a pressure side pool
cleaner will void the warranty
2.
Remove the drain plug. Store the drain plug in a safe
location and reinstall it when the cold weather season is
over. Be mindful of the O-ring. Check for damage and
wear and replace as needed, please see Section 6 for a
complete replacement parts list.
3.
Keep the motor covered and dry.
NOTE: Covering the pump with plastic will create condensation,
and this moisture will damage the pump. The best way to protect
your pump is to have a qualified service technician or electrician
properly disconnect the electrical wiring at the switch or junction
box. Once the power is removed, the two (2) quick connect fittings
can be loosened and the pump stored indoors. For safety, and to
prevent entry of contaminants, reinstall all conduit and terminal
box covers.
4.
When the system is reopened for operation, make sure all
piping, valves, wiring, and equipment are in accordance
with the manufacturer's recommendations. Pay close
attention to the filter and electrical connections.
5.
The pump is not self priming and must be filled with
water from an upstream filter pump.
