HOSE ASSEMBLY
Connect hoses from pump

shown using stainless steel
hose clamps (not supplied).
We recommend using an
in-line check valve before
the pump connection.

Unpack the Main filter unit. Open the cover by pulling latches out at bottom then
pivoting them outward at the top. Then pull straight up on cover.
If your filter includes the UV Clarifier, carefully lift the cover and check that UV bulb
is connected to the fixture inside the quartz sleeve. If it has become dislodged
during shipping see separate sheet included with UV units
for instructions to access bulb. Carefully place the cover
aside.
Debris Filter Media Pad fits into the top tray.
BioMatrix filter ball media is used in the bottom tray or trays
depending on your model. If your BioMatrix filter ball media
is packed in plastic bags, empty them evenly into the
bottom tray(s) and dispose of the bags.

Once hoses are connected, the filter should be checked with the pump
running. Check that hoses are supported well enough to avoid
stressing the plastic intake and outlet ports once they are weighted
with water during operation. Supporting the hoses will help prevent
kinked tubing. Check for leaks and tighten hose clamps if needed.
