GENERAL INFORMATION
• Clean a new pool as well as possible before filling pool and operating filter.
• Excess dirt and large particles of foreign matter in the system can cause serious damage to the filter and pump.
• With a cartridge filter system in place and operating correctly, clean water is returned to the pool faster than the pool water is being
contaminated. A typical pool installation will require approximately one week to obtain and maintain the sparkle that your filter
is capable of giving you.
• Keep pool water pH at recommended level (7.2 to 7.6).
• Be sure both clamps are in place and knobs are securely tightened before starting filter.
• Maintain pressure gauge in good working order. Replace gauge if it fails or is damaged.
• Cleaning interval is based on pressure differential, not on length of time filter is operated.
NOTICE
Some pool disinfectants may clog filter media. To maximize media life and filter cycle time, closely follow
disinfectant manufacturer’s instructions when cleaning pool or filter.
Hazardous pressure. If filter is improperly disassembled or assembled, it will explode under pressure.
To avoid danger of severe injury or major property damage, always follow service instructions in this
manual (Pages 11 to 13) when working on filter.
Risk of explosion. Never operate this filter system at more than 50 pounds per square inch
(50 PSI/345kPa) pressure!
