Filter Pump Draining
To use the filter pump to drain the water from the filter canister
you will need to prepare a drainage hose using the third
Aquastop Valve (drainage hose and clamp not included).
1. To prepare the drainage hose attach the third Aquastop
Valve to a 1” (2.5cm) diameter hose securing it to the
valve with a hose clamp.
Follow the instructions in the
“Installation and Use” section Prepare intake connections
Step 1.
2. Turn the IN and OUT valves to the closed
(horizontal) position.
3. Unplug the pump from the electrical power supply.
Note:
It is a good idea to have a cloth handy as some
water will escape when removing the AquaStop Valve.
4.
Disconnect both the Intake and Output Aquastop valves
from the canister.
5. Attach the third Aqua-Stop valve with attached drainage
hose (prepared in Step 1 above) to the OUT connection
on the canister.
WARNING:
Be sure the Drainage Hose and
AquaStop Valve is connected to the OUT connection.
6. Position the hose opening in an appropriate
drain basin.
7. Plug the power cord into and electrical outlet.
8. Open the Aquastop to the open vertical position.
Let the filter pump run until all the water is drained
from the canister.
9. Once the filter is drained unplug the unit.
10. Disconnect the drainage Aquastop Valve
and move
canister to appropriate work area.
