KEEP SAFETY LABELS IN GOOD

OR DAMAGED.

To prevent damage to the pump and filter and for proper
operation of the system, clean pump strainer and
skimmer baskets regularly.
FILTER CONTROL VALVE FUNCTIONS
FILTER
—Set
valve to FILTER for normal filtering. Also
use for regular vacuuming.
BACKWASH
—For
cleaning filter. When filter pressure
gauge rises 8-10 PSI (0.55-0.69 BAR) above start-up
(clean pressure):
Stop the pump, set valve to BACKWASH. Start pump
and backwash until water in sight glass is clear.
Approximately 2 minutes or less depending on dirt
accumulation. Proceed to RINSE.
RINSE
—
After backwashing, with pump off, set valve to
RINSE. Start pump and operate for about 1/2 to 1 minute.
This ensures that all dirty water from backwashing is
rinsed out of the filter to waste, preventing possible return
to the pool. Stop pump, set valve to FILTER, and start
pump for normal filtering.
WASTE
—
To bypass filter for draining or lowering water
level and for vacuuming heavy debris directly to waste.
RECIRCULATE
—Water
is recirculated through the pool
system, bypassing the filter.
CLOSED
—Shuts off flow from pump to filter.
VACUUMING
—Vacuuming can be performed directly into
the filter. When vacuuming heavy debris loads, set valve
to WASTE position to bypass the filter and vacuum
directly out to waste.
'NOTE: For new concrete or gunite pools, or where there is a large amount
of plaster dust or debris
—start filter in FILTER position (not
BACKWASH) to prevent clogging of underdrain laterals.
