IMPORTANT:

  

Over chlorination or damage to the 

Prevail Cycler or other equipment could result if special 
installations A, B or C are not used in these situations.

1) If using a multi-speed pump, run pump for at 
least 6 hours per day at high speed (at least 40 
gpm). 

If the pump will run on low speed 24 hours per day 
or less than 6 hours per day on high speed, you must 
bleed the air while the pump is on by 
unscrewing the back knob until water 
appears. Then screw the knob back in. 
Repeat this process each time the cap 
is removed for any reason.

2) Install Cycler with 4-8 psi back pressure.

Lower back pressures could result in under 
chlorination. Change the eyeball fittings in 
the return jets to a smaller size to increase 
back pressure. Contact King Technology at 
800-222-0169 for a specially designed 
Cycler pressure gauge to determine back 
pressure at pool start-up.

3) Special installation Requirements:

  If water flow is higher than 80 gallons per minute (gpm),  

  see diagram A.

  If an in-floor cleaner is included with pool,   

 

  see diagram B, with two options. Preferred 
  installation is Option 1 with two separate lines.

  If set-up is a pool and spa combination with  

 

  common equipment, see diagram C.
