SAFETY INFORMATION

1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS

Thank you for purchasing this product.

 You have purchased a high quality replacement pump from 

Blue Wave. All pumps covered in this manual have full-rated motors and have been manufactured and 
tested to offer many years of trouble-free service. We work around the clock and around the globe 
to ensure that our products maintain the highest possible quality. However, in the rare case of issues 
during assembly or use of this product, please contact our 

Consumer Hotline at 800-759-0977 

for 

immediate assistance before contacting your retailer. Please read the warranty information at the back 
of these assembly instructions for further details.

Please read this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate or install the product. Save 
this instruction manual for future use. This manual contains important information regarding the safe 
use, operation, and installation of this pump. The use of unauthorized replacement parts voids the 
warranty.
 

          

                      To prevent serious injury and to avoid unnecessary service calls, read this manual carefully 

and completely.

WARNING

CAUTION

To reduce risk of injury, do not permit children to use or climb on this product. 

Closely supervise children at all times. Components such as the filtration 

system, pumps, and heaters must be positioned to prevent children from using 
them as a means of access to the pool.

This pump is intended for use on permanently installed in-ground or above-
ground swimming pools and may also be used with hot tubs and spas if so 
marked. Do 

NOT

 use with storable pools. A permanently installed pool is 

constructed in- or on-the-ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily 
disassembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so that it is capable of 
being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity.
Though this product is designed for outdoor use, it is strongly advised to 
protect the electrical components from the weather. Select a well-drained area, 

one that will not flood when it rains. It requires free circulation of air for cooling. 

Do not install in a damp or unventilated location. If installed within an outer 
enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa, adequate ventilation and free 
circulation of air must be provided to prevent overheating of the motor.
