THESE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON THE SAFE, PROPER AND ECONOMICAL
OPERATION OF THE SWIMMING POOL FILTERS. STRICT OBSERVATION OF THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WILL HELP
TO AVOID DANGERS, REDUCE REPAIR COSTS AND SHUTDOWN TIMES AND INCREASE THE RELIABILITY AND
WORKING LIFE OF THE PRODUCT.
Section 1
GENERAL INFORMATION
Check carton for any evidence of damage due to rough handling in shipment. If carton or any filter components are damaged, notify
the carrier immediately.
This manual contains critical safety information that must be provided to the end user. Failure to read and to follow
instructions could result in serious personal injury and/or major property damage.
This filter operates under pressure and if assembled improperly or operated with air in the water circulation system,
the top cap can separate, blowing off, which may result in an accident causing property damage or serious bodily
injury.
Keep safety labels in good condition and replace if missing or illegible.
Failure to operate your filter system or inadequate filtration can cause poor visibility in your pool. This can result in
serious personal injury or drowning as a consequence of diving into turbid water or on top of obscured objects.
Please note that a filter removes organic matter and does not sanitize the pool. The pool water must be sanitized
and the water must be balanced for sparkling clear water.
Filters should never be tested or subjected to air or gas under pressure. All gases are compressible and
constitute a serious hazard when under pressure. Severe injury or property damage could occur if the filter is
subjected to air or gas pressure.
Operating at excessive vacuum levels can cause the vessel to crack and could cause property damage.
To prevent damage to the equipment and possible injury, always turn the pump off before changing the valve position.
Always visually inspect the filter components during normal servicing to ensure structural safety. Replace any item
that is cracked, deformed or otherwise visually defective. Defective filter components can allow the filter top or
attachments to be blown off and could cause severe injury or property damage.
Section 2
Installation
Install the filter in a dry, well-ventilated location with adequate access for servicing. Place the filter in its permanent location on a
completely level base, preferably made of concrete poured as a single slab or on a platform constructed of concrete blocks or bricks.
Pipes should preferably be made of PVC. Set the suction pipe at a slight angle to avoid the formation of air bubbles. Fit the valve and
position the filter in the correct place. Make sure that the valve on the filter can be easily accessed. Then fit the plumbing.
