RESTARTING INSTRUCTIONS & PRIMING THE PUMP
CAUTION: DO NOT run the pump dry. If the pump is run dry, the mechanical seal will be damaged and the pump
will start leaking. If this occurs, the damaged seal must be replaced. ALWAYS maintain proper water level in
your pool. If the water level falls below the skimmer opening, the pump will draw air through the skimmer,
losing the prime and causing the pump to run dry, resulting in a damaged seal.
If the pump is installed below the water level of the pool, close
return and suction lines prior to opening hair and lint pot on
pump. Make sure to re-open valves prior to operating.
The pump strainer pot must be filled with water before the pump
is initially started. Follow these steps to prime the pump. For
2-speed pumps: Pump should run on high-speed for priming.
1. Remove the pump lid.
2. Fill the pump strainer pot with water.
