In start up
Once the filter system has been properly assembled, the sand
chamber filled with sand and the hoses connected as described
above, you may begin with filtration. However, we recommend that
you clean and prepare the new sand that is in the sand chamber
first
.
Cleaning the sand prior to filtering your pool will remove most of
the dust and tiny sand particles that may exist in the sand
.
If you
move straight to filtering, these particles will end up in your pool
.
To
clean the sand, please follow the instructions below.
Do not plug the system in until advised to do so below.
1) Make certain the pump is not plugged in to a power supply.
2) Start with the valve in the 5 Closed position.
3)
If you haven’t done so already, fill your pool with water
.
Ensure
that the water level is at least 2,5
– 5 cm above the top of the hose
intake
(Skimmer)
and return ports in the pool.
4)
Release the shut off valve at the intake port
(Skimmer)
in the
pool
.
If you plugged the intake port
(Skimmer)
, remove the plug to
allow the water to flow into the intake hose.
5) With the filter-pump system installed in a location level lower
than your
pool’s water level – water will automatically flow into the
pump-filter system
.
6) Allow the filter tank to fill with water.
7) Check for leaks and make any necessary adjustments. Be-
cause of tolerances (in consequence of the production process), it
is possible that it may be necessary to use a Teflon tape addtition-
ally which has to be wrapped around the connections, before the
connection tube is fixed, in order to correct these tolerances.
8) Follow the backwash process described below.
Backwash Prozess
S Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
Attach backwash hose (not included) to backwash port.
Place the Multi-
Port Valve in the “4 - Backwash” position.
Reconnect to power source.
Run filter in BACKWASH mode until discharge water is clear.
Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
Place the Multi-
Port Valve in the “2 - RINSE” position.
It is important that you read and follow the instructions on proper
power supply sources.
Reconnect to power source.
Allow filter to run for 60 seconds to remove any remaining residue
from pump and valve.
Disconnect the Motor/Pump from the Power Source.
Place the Multi-
Port Valve in the “1 - Filtration” position.
Reconnect to power source.
Your filtration system is RUNNING and ready for further operation.
To winterize the system
1) Unplug the pump from the power source.
2) Close the shut off valves or block the flow of water at the
pool inlet and
return ports.
3) Disconnect the filtration system from the pool, drain the
tank and hoses.
4) Place the handle on the central valve in position 7-
‘Winter-
ize’ to relieve the
tension on the spring and internal valve
components.
5) Store the filter system in a location protected from frost and
severely cold
temperatures
.
In a garage or insulated stor-
age shed is recommended
.
