IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Hazardous Pressure: Pool and spa water circulation systems operate under hazardous pressure during
start-up, normal operation, and after pump shut-off. Stand clear of circulation system equipment during
pump start-up. Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation of the
pump housing and cover due to pressure in the system, which could cause property damage, severe
personal injury, or death. Before servicing pool and spa water circulation system, all system and pump
controls must be in off position and filter manual air relief valve must be in open position. Before starting
system pump, all system valves must be set in a position to allow system water to return back to the pool.
DO NOT change filter control valve position while system pump is running. Before starting system pump,
fully open filter manual air relief valve.
DO NOT
close filter manual air relief valve until a steady stream
of water (not air or air and water) is discharged. All suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN when
starting the circulation system. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury and/or property
damage.
Separation Hazard: Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation of
pump components. Strainer cover must be properly secured to pump housing with strainer cover lock ring.
Before servicing pool and spa circulation system, all system and pump controls must be in off position and
filter manual air relief valve must be in open position.
DO NOT
operate pool and spa circulation system if
a system component is not assembled properly, damaged, or missing. DO NOT operate pool and spa
circulation system unless filter air relief valve body is in locked position in filter upper body. All
suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN when starting the circulation system. Failure to do so could
result in severe personal injury and/or property damage. NEVER operate or test the circulation system at
more than 40 PSI.
Fire and Burn Hazard: Motors operate at high temperatures and if they are not properly isolated from
any flammable structures or foreign debris they can cause fires, which may cause severe personal injury
or death. It is also necessary to allow the motor to cool for at least 20 minutes prior to maintenance to
minimize the risk for burns.
This product should be installed and serviced only by a qualified professional.
If pump is being pressure tested (40 PSI MAXIMUM), be sure pressure has been released, using the filter
manual air relief valve, before removing strainer cover.
NEVER run pump dry. Running pump dry may damage seals, causing leakage, flooding, and voids
warranty. Fill strainer housing with water before starting motor.
Match supply voltage to motor nameplate voltage. Insure that the electrical supply available agrees with
the motor’s voltage, phase, and cycle, and that the wire size is adequate for the (KW) rating and distance
from the power source.
All suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN, as well as filter air relief valve (if available) on filter,
when starting the circulating pump system. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury.
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock hazard, turn OFF power to motor before draining pump.
Failure to disconnect power may result in serious personal injury or death.
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock hazard, turn OFF power to motor before draining pump.
