SECTION 9.
Specialty Service
Jandy strongly recommends that you call a
qualified service technician to perform any repairs on
the filter/pump system.
9.1 Blocked Impeller
1.
Turn off the pump. Switch off the circuit breaker
to the pump motor.
4.
Pull the motor and mounting bracket out of the
pump body. The impeller is connected to the
motor shaft.
5.
Using a No. 1 Phillips screwdriver, remove the
two (2) screws holding the diffuser (the cover
over the impeller) and remove the diffuser (See
Fig. 2). Remove the diffuser o-ring. It may be
stuck in the pump body cone (See Fig. 3).
Note:
At this point you have access to the inlet
and outlet of the impeller to remove any debris.
While servicing the pump, switch off the circuit
breakers at the power source. Severe personal
injury or death may occur if the pump starts while
your hand is inside the pump.
WARNING
2.
Remove the lid and basket.
3.
Look inside the pump for any debris. Remove
any debris found inside.
4.
Replace the basket and lid.
5.
Switch on the circuit breaker to the pump motor.
6.
Turn on the pump, and see if the problem is
solved.
7.
If the impeller is still blocked with debris and it
is not possible to remove the debris this way, the
pump will need to be disassembled to access the
inlet and outlet of the impeller.
9.2. Removing the Impeller
1.
Turn off the pump. Switch off the circuit breaker
to the pump motor. If you are not replacing the
motor, do not disconnect the electrical wiring.
Note:
If you are replacing the motor, Jandy
strongly recommends that a qualified service
technician or electrician properly disconnect the
electrical wiring at the pump motor.
2.
Turn off any valves to prevent pool water from
reaching the pump. Drain the water from the
pump by loosening the unions or removing the
drain plugs.
3.
Using a wrench, loosen the bolts connecting the
pump body to the mounting bracket (See Fig. 1).
