Caution! The jet housing is made from ABS. If the suction and pressure connections are glued
in-situ, allow for a curing time of at least 12 hours!
The total salt concentration in the swimming pool water must not exceed 0,5% (equivalent to 5g/l).
The electrical connection must be made by a specialist!
Care must be taken to ensure that the electrical installation has an isolator, which permits disconnection
from the mains with at least 3 mm contact distance for each pole.
The countercurrent swim unit is constructed to safety class 1. The ambient temperature must
not exceed 40°.
The three-phase and ac motors installed in the countercurrent swim unit
are safeguarded by an appropriate motor protection switch in the original control box. Prior to commis

sioning, the set value must be compared to the value stated on the rating plate.
The electrical plant must be protected in accordance with the valid standard with a fault-current circuit

≤ 30 mA. The cable connecting pump and control box should be of the type H07 RNF 4G
1,5.
6. Startup
With the 3-phase motor, the direction of rotation must be checked by briefly switching on. The direction
of rotation must correspond to the arrow affixed to the fan hood.
This direction of rotation check is especially important with three-phase motors, as their pump can also
run in the wrong direction. If this is the case, 2 phases are to be swapped so that this check can be
repeated.
7. Service / maintenance
If there is a risk of frost, the water level in the swimming pool must be lowered to the bottom edge of the
jet housing so that the suction and pressure lines can be drained.
It is advised to dismantle the pump during winter and store it in a dry room.
The Badu Jet vogue cover is made of stainless steel. Dissolved substances in the water may stain the
cover and cause corrosion. Therefore the cover has to be cleaned occasionally.
8. Malfunction
The wet-end of the pump is separated from the motor by a mechanical seal. If this seal is leaking, water
drips from under the pump; in that case said mechanical seal must be replaced by an expert.
To dismantle the pump, proceed as follows:
Switch off the pump and disconnect safely from the mains. Replacement should only be effected by a
specialist. Detach the pump, which is connected to the suction line by means of a threaded union and to
the pressure line by means of a rubber elbow, from the jet housing and replace the mechanical seal.
