“READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS” Failure to follow these important
safety instructions and other basic safety precautions may result
in serious personal injury.
Before you begin installing your filter, refer to your pump
owners guide for very important installation and electri-
cal information related to your filter.
ELECTRICAL/BUILDING PERMIT
Local building codes may require obtaining an electrical
or building permit and may have regulations on set
backs and barriers that must be followed.
ELECTRICAL
We recommend you have a qualified electrical contrac-
tor install the electrical power supply as specified in your
pump instructions.
INSTALLED LOCATION
Position filter, pump and any other related components
a minimum of 5 feet from pool to prevent their being
used as a means to climb into the pool by young chil-
dren.
DO NOT
store toys, chairs, tables, containers or
other objects within 5 feet of the pool for the same
reason.
WARNING
SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK
could result if you
install your filter and pump on a deck or above pool
water level. They could fall into the water, causing
severe shock or electrocution.
DO NOT
install on a
deck or other surface at, above or slightly below the top
rail of the pool.
PROPERLY SUPPORTED
Filter, pump and any other related components should
be properly supported to prevent damage from misalign-
ment, settlement, vibration and mounted so as to
minimize the potential for the accumulation of debris and
moisture.
ACCESSIBILITY
The circulation system components should be installed
to allow accessibility for inspection, repair or replace-
ment.
DO NOT
alter the pump electrical cord in any way or
change the plug end to any style.
DO NOT
use an extension cord(s). Severe electrical
shock may occur.
PREVENT SEVERE SHOCK
To prevent the risk of severe electrical shock, plug your
pump cord end into a grounding type receptacle pro-
tected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot verify that
the receptacle is protected by a GFCI.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT
allow children to operate or play around this
product unless they are closely supervised by adults at
all times.
Replace damaged cord immediately to reduce the risk of
electrical shock.
DO NOT BURY CORD
An exposed cord may accidentally become damaged or
severed by a sharp object or shovel resulting in severe
electrical shock. Position cord to prevent accidental
damage from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers or other
equipment.
BARE FEET/WET GROUND
This is a dangerous combination around electrical
equipment. Always be sure the ground under your feet
and body is dry before you touch electrical equipment.
Failure to heed this warning may cause severe personal
injury or electrocution due to severe electrical shock.
WARNING
Avoid direct water spraying with a garden hose around
electrical outlets, pump or any other electrical devices.
Severe electrical shock or electrocution may occur.
SERVICING YOUR PUMP
Always unplug your pump from the receptacle before
servicing, adjusting or repairing.
HAZARDOUS PRESSURE
Pumps, filters and other equipment/components of a
swimming pool filtration system operate under pressure.
Incorrectly installed and/or improperly tested filtration
equipment and/or components may fail resulting in injury
and/or property damage. A qualified pool professional
MUST conduct all pressure tests. This product is
intended for above-ground/on-ground swimming pool
applications only. DO NOT connect to a high pressure
system such as a municipal water main. To prevent
explosion caused by entrapped air in the filtration
system, bleed all air from the system. Confirm that ALL
filtration system component clamps, bolts and covers
have been properly tightened.
