Sep 12): START-UP
Follow your filter and pump’s start-up instructions. Check all fittings and
hose connections for leakage. Tighten clamps and/or fittings as required to
stop any leaks.
Step 13); MAINTENANCE
Preventative maintenance will provide continued smooth operation of your
pool and filter system extending its life for many years. Many potential
problems can be avoided by routinely inspecting the pool. Filter, pump, and
accessories. Keep moving parts lubricated and maintain a clean tidy
environment around the pool.
Step 14): VACUUMING
Regular vacuuming helps to maintain clean pool water and is an important
factor in maintaining proper water chemistry. Vacuum performance will be
poor when vacuuming with a dirty filter. Clean your filter prior to vacuuming
if return water flow is low. To connect the vacuum hose, stop pump and lift
out the skimmer basket and set it aside. Insert the VACUUM TUBE into the
skimmer port as shown above image. Rotate the tube to allow key tabs to
pass through skimmer port slots and continue rotating to lock into place.
NOTE: If using 1-1/4” diameter hose. Insert the VACUUM ADAPTOR into the
VACUUMTUBE prior to installing the vacuum hose.
To expel trapped air in the vacuum hose (not provided), turn pump on and hold one
end of the hose over the return port. After air in expelled, turn pump lf and install
the hose end over the vacuum tube. To vacuum, follow the operating instructions
provided with the vacuum and filter units. Stop pump when finished vacuuming.
Remove the vacuum tube(s) and replace the skimmer basket prior to resuming
filter operations.
