RESTARTING FILTER PUMP
STARTING PUMP AFTER INSTALLATION OR CLEANING OF FILTER
1. Switch on filter pump. When pump starts, do not stand over or near filter.
NOTE: If water leakage appears at the main lock ring, immediately turn off all pumps, electrical
equipment and stand away from the filter until the water leak has stopped, before inspecting
further.
2. If closed, loosen air relief valve approximately one and a half turns and wait for a constant stream
of water to exit. Gently close valve only enough to seat the seal (do not overtighten).
7.
WINTERISING
Is it important to protect your
Oasis Aquatics Cartridge Filter
from freezing water conditions in areas
where sub-freezing temperatures can be expected. As water freezes it expands and that can cause the
internals of the Cartridge Filter to break under the intense pressure of expanding water.
It is your responsibility to monitor temperatures and take the following actions:
In mild climate areas, when temporary freezing conditions may occur, run your pump and filtration
equipment all night to maintain water circulation and prevent freezing.
If freezing conditions are expected, take the following steps to shut down your filter system and reduce the
risk of freeze damage. Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.
1. Follow the steps in
“FILTER DISASSEMBLE INSTRUCTIONS” to remove and clean the
cartridge.
2. Reinstall the cartridge in the filter.
3. Fully tighten the lock ring while storing.
4. Reassemble as per
“FILTER REASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS”.
5. Be sure to leave the drain plug unattached during the winter season to avoid cracking the filter
body.
Winter is an ideal time for any repairs that may be required during the off-season. Most pool professionals
will recommend what is needed before the next pool season, so contact them for a thorough maintenance
plan.
