INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS LOCATION
The filter should be placed in its permanent location, preferably as
close to the pool as practicable. Position the filter tank and pump
on a level concrete slab or similar base. Allow sufficient space
around the filter for routine maintenance and provide for adequate
ventilation and drainage.
Place the pump in position on the slab and locate the filter alongside
with the appropriate pump inlet connection oriented towards the
pump. Refer to the specification section for the minimum clearance
measurements required for each model.
WEATHER PROTECTION
Monarch Series Cartridge Filters are constructed of corrosion
resistant materials. However, to ensure years of reliable performance,
it is recommended that the filtration system is adequately protected
from the weather.
ASSEMBLY
Assemble the pressure gauge to the filter lid using Teflon tape on the
male thread. Do not over-tighten.
PIPE CONNECTIONS
Piping should be independently supported and not impose heavy

If the pump and filter are located below pool water level, it is
necessary to fit isolating valves in the pipe between the pump and
the pool, and in the return line from the filter to the pool.
Barrel unions need to be hand tightened only. No sealant, glues
or silicones are required.
