Filter:

This function is used to filter pool water and should be positioned here 99% of the time. Water

is pumped through the sand filter, where it is cleaned and returned to the pool.

Backwash:

This function is used to clean the sand bed; water is pumped down through the

Connector Hub, upwards through the sand bed, and deposited out of Port D.

Rinse:

This function for initial startup, cleaning, and sand bed leveling after Backwash; water is

pumped downwards through the sand bed, up through the Connector Hub and deposited out of the
valve Port D.

Circulate:

This function circulates pool water bypassing the sand filter; use this function if the filter is

broken to collect debris in the Debris Screens.

Drain:

This function drains water from the pool; another filter bypass setting, water is pumped and

deposited out of Port D, instead of returning it to the pool.

NOTE:

When the Control Valve is set to the Backwash, Rinse, or Drain position, water will discharge

from Port D on the Control Valve.
Be sure all provisions for wastewater disposal meet applicable local, state or national codes. Do not
discharge water where it will cause flooding or damage.

WARNING:

When draining the pool or washing the sand bed, remember to unscrew the Port D Cap

from the Control Valve Port D. Ensure the sand filter is turned off before unscrewing the Port D Cap.

Closed:

This function stops water flowing between the sand filter and the pool.

NOTE:

Do not plug-in or operate the sand filter with the Control Valve set to the Closed function or it

will seriously damage the sand filter.

Sand Filter Installation

(You will need a Phillips screwdriver.)

Section I: Assembly

1. Carefully remove all components from

the package and check to ensure nothing
is damaged. If equipment is damaged,
immediately notify the retailer from where
the equipment was purchased.

2. The sand filter should be placed on solid,

level ground, preferably a concrete slab.
Position the sand filter so the Ports and
Control Valve are accessible for
operation, servicing and winterizing.

3. EN60335-2-41 TEST standard requires

the sand filter must be vertically fixed on
ground or a certain pedestal made of
wood or concrete before use to prevent the sand filter from accidental falling. Fully assembled sand filter will
exceed 18kg. The mounting holes should be 8mm in diameter and spaced 200mm apart. Use two bolts and
nuts with a maximum of 8mm in diameter to fasten the sand filter to the pedestal. (See Fig.4)

4. Load pool-grade filter sand.

NOTE:

Use only special pool-grade filter sand, free of all limestone or clay:

#20 Silica sand 0.45-0.85mm,

approximately one 25kg bag should suffice.

Use of other sands will reduce filtering performance and may

damage the sand filter, thereby voiding the warranty.

a. Turn the Nut counter clockwise to release the Flange Clamp (See Fig.5) and remove the Top Tank. (See Fig.6)
b. Center the Collector Hub in the Bottom Tank. Slowly, add the sand so the weight of the sand does not damage

the Skimmer on the Connector Hub, until it reaches the top rim of the Bottom Tank. (See Fig.7)

NOTE:

To avoid damaging the Skimmer when adding sand, pour some water into the Bottom Tank to

submerse the Skimmer on the Collector Hub.

NOTE:

SAND NOT INCLUDED.

Do not pour the sand into the pipe of the Collector Hub. (See Fig.8)

c. Ensure the O-ring is in place on the rim of the Bottom Tank (See Fig.9), and wash away any sand from around

the rim of the Bottom Tank.

NOTE:

Make sure the O-ring on the rim of the Top Tank is clean, and has no nicks, tears, or scrapes or sand

on it.
