Visually confirm that the pump intake strainer is in place and
free of debris (Figure 6). The pump intake strainer must be in

debris from entering the pump and causing damage. The
intake strainer may be cleaned by unscrewing the clear cover
of the strainer housing, counter-clockwise, and rinsing the
screen in clean water.

Confirm that the CB Tech WaterBox™ electrical switch is in the
