NOTE:
• 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.
• When the Control Valve is set to the Backwash, Rinse, or Drain position, water will discharge from Port D on the Control Valve.
• Do not switch on or operate the sand filter with the Control Valve set to the Closed function or it will seriously damage the sand filter.
• Do not set the Control Valve between two functions, or it will lead to leaking.
• To avoid water leakage, screw the Port D Cap onto the Control Valve Port D before operating the sand filter.

WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. THE GFCI MUST BE TESTED BEFORE EACH USE.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE THE PUMP IF THE ABOVE TEST FAILS. Please contact your local Bestway Aftersales
Service.
Section I: Assembly
(You will need a Phillips screwdriver).
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 to be vertically fixed on ground
or a certain pedestal made of wood or concrete before use to prevent the sand filter
from accidentally falling. Fully assembled sand filter will exceed 35kg. The mounting holes should be 8mm in diameter and
spaced 86mm apart. Use two bolts and nuts with a maximum of 8mm in diameter to fasten the sand filter to the pedestal.
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 35kg bag should suffic If you do not use the recommended size of filter sand, filtering performance will be reduced and the
sand filter may damaged, there by voiding the warranty.
NOTE:
To avoid damaging the Skimmer when adding sand, pour some water into the Bottom Tank to submerse the
Skimmer on the Hub.
NOTE:
SAND NOT INCLUDED.
1. Place the tank base in the right place, aligning the position hole.
2. Place the tank onto the right place of tank base.
3 .Place the filter cover(4).
4. Slowly add the sand so the weight of the sand does not damage the Skimmer on the Hub, until it reaches between the
marked “MAX” and “MIN”. #20 Silica sand 0.45-0.85mm, approximately 35 kg.
5. Pull out the filter cover (4).
6. Lower the control valve over the tank slowly,and ensure the bypass pipe protruding underneath the control valve fits securely
into the hub (6).
7. Make sure Port C on the Control Valve is align Port C on the Pump. Attach the Top Flange Clamp (3) and screw into position.
8. Attach the Piping (14) to Pump Port C and to Control Valve Port C, screw the threaded locking rings into position. Make sure
the Washer is properly positioned on both ends of the Piping (14).
Section II: Hose Configuration for Backwashing and Rinsing
NOTE:
Ensure the Control Valve is set to the Closed function.
Your pool should be filled with water, make certain all of the pool’s Debris Screens (24) are fully submerged in water.
Please check if your product includes a T-Joint (25) (see Fig. E).
If yes, assemble your sand filter referring to method A;
if no, assemble your sand filter referring to method B.
Method A (see Fig.A-1)
1. Attach one end of the hose (23) to the sand filter’s Port B; screw the threaded locking ring into position.
2. Connect both ends of hoses (Φ32mm) to the pool valves marked “B”, place the loose Hose Clamps (P6124) on the end of
Hoses. Connect both free ends of hoses (Φ32mm) to the T-joint (P61408) by tightening the Hose Clamps.
3. Screw the other end of the hose (23) to the T-joint (25), screw the threaded locking ring into position.
4. Remove the Stopper Plugs from the pool’ s outlet valves (marked “B”) and insert with the Debris Screens. With the Hoses
and Debris Screens in position, tighten the Hose Clamps.
Method B (see Fig.B-1)
1. Attach one Hose (23) to the sand filter’s Port B; screw the threaded locking ring into position.
2. Screw the other end of the Hose (23) to Port B connection valve; screw the threaded locking ring into position.
3. Open the connection valve.
NOTE:
You can refer to pool manual for connection valve’s installation instructions.
Screw the other Hose (23) to Port D and place the opposite end in drain area.
Section III: Backwash and Rinsing
Backwash and Rinsing must be preformed to prepare the pump for its first use and to wash the sand.
CAUTION:
DO NOT DRY RUN THE SAND FILTER
1. Press down on the Control Valve handle and rotate to the Backwash function.
2. Insert the plug into a residual current device, and run the sand filter for 3-5 minutes, or until the water runs clear.
3. Switch off the sand filter and set the Control Valve to the Rinse function.
4. Switch on the sand filter and run the sand filter for 1 min. This circulates water backwards through the sand filter and drains
water out Port D.
5. Switch off the sand filter. Set the Control Valve to the Closed function.
6. Top up pool water.
IMPORTANT:
This procedure removes water from the pool, which you’ll need to replace. Switch off
the sand filter immediately if water levels near the pool’s Inlet and Outlet valves.
DO NOT DRY RUN THE SAND FILTER.
Section IV: Complete Sand Filter Installation
Connect the Second Hose
NOTE:
It is imperative to check that the hydraulic connectors are not obturated.
NOTE:
Ensure the Control Valve is set to the Closed function.
Assemble your product referring to Fig. A-2 if there is a T-joint (Fig. E), and referring to B-2 if not. The assembly methods are
the same.
1.Detach the Hose (23) from Port D.
2.Attach the Hose (23 )to the Control Valve’s Port A ; screw the threaded locking ring into position.
3.Connect the other end of Hose (23) to the pool’s Inlet A.
4.Open the connection valve.
NOTE:
You can refer to pool manual for connection valve’s installation instructions.
Section V: Sand Filter Operation
1. Now the sand filter is ready for use. Set the Control Valve to the Filter function.
NOTE:
To prevent the risk of electrical shock dry any excess water from yourself and the
sand filter.
2. Switch on the sand filter to run it.
NOTE:
The sand filter has now started its filtering cycle. Check that water is returning to
the pool and take note of the filter pressure on Pressure Gauge. Generally, the recommended
sand filter pressure is less than 0.56Bar (8.0PSI) when it is running.
Sand Filter Maintenance
CAUTION:
You must ensure the sand filter is switched off and unplugged before any
maintenance begins or severe risk of injury or death exists.
As dirt builds up in the sand filter, the pressure reading on Pressure Gauge will increase. When
the Pressure Gauge is 0.56Bar (8.0PSI) or higher, or water flow to the pool is too low, it is time to
clean the sand.
To clean the sand bed, follow all instructions outlined previously in
Section II and Section III:
Backwash and Rinsing.
NOTE:
1. The Pressure Gauge is just used for measuring the water pressure, not used for precision
measurement.
2. We recommend you clean the sand bed once a month or less regularly depending on how
often the pool is used.
Do not clean the sand too frequently.
Cleaning the Strainer
1. Switch off the sand filter and set the Control Valve to the Closed function.
2. Close the connection valves.
3. Remove the Strainer Cover by unscrewing it.
4. Take out the Strainer, remove any debris.
5. Put the Strainer back into position. Ensure the hole in the strainer is aligned.
6. Ensure the Seal Ring is in place. Secure the Strainer Cover back.
7. Open the connection valves.
NOTE:
The Strainer must be emptied and cleaned periodically.
A dirty or blocked strainer will reduce the performance of the sand filter.
Lowering or Draining Pool Water
1. Switch off the sand filter and set Control Valve to the Drain function.
2. Detach the Hose from the connection valve’s Port A and sand filter Port A and attach to Port D.
3. Switch on the sand filter to remove pool water.
WARNING:
DO NOT DRY RUN THE SAND FILTER.
Winterizing
In areas that have freezing winter temperatures, pool equipment must be winterized to protect against damage. Allowing water
to freeze will damage the sand filter and void warranty.
1. Backwash the sand filter as previously outlined in Section II and Section III.
2. Drain the pool according to the pool owner’s manual.
3. Unscrew the drain valve cap at the bottom of the tank and release the remaining water.
4. Disconnect the two Hoses from the pool and the sand filter.
5. Completely pour the sand out of the tank and dry all components.
6. Store the sand filter in a dry location out of child’s reach.
