Booster Pump Installation

Please refer to the instructions included with your 
booster pump for installation information.  

Please follow these instructions carefully. 

  IMPORTANT!

 Before starting this procedure

  be sure to switch off the filter pump and 
 booster pump.

1.  Attach the flow gauge to the wall fitting by aligning the two 

tabs on the flow gauge with the grooves in the wall fitting.  

See figure 4. 

Push and turn the flow gauge clockwise until 

it stops, then slightly pull it out away from the wall.   Be 
sure the flow gauge is securely locked in place by turning 
it counterclockwise while slightly pulling out on the flow 
gauge. 

See figure 5. 

 Note: 

 Flow gauge will not turn when locked in place.

2.  Switch on the filter pump and then the booster pump.

3.  Verify the white plunger (inside the flow gauge) is aligned 

within the box on the flow gauge.  

See figure 6.

4.  Adjust the valve on the wall fitting using a flathead screw 

driver by turning the valve clockwise (to reduce flow) or 
counter-clockwise (to increase flow) so that the white 
plunger aligns with the arrows on the flow gauge markings. 

See figure 7.

5.  Switch off the booster pump and then the filter pump.

6.  Remove the flow gauge from the wall fitting by pushing in 

and turning counterclockwise and pulling the gauge out.

7.  Attach the hose assembly to the wall fitting. Turn clockwise 

then push in one quarter turn to secure in place (as 
described in Step 2).
