PRELIMINARY STEPS
POWER FILTER IMPORTANT NOTES:
1.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
and get a thorough understanding of what is required to
assemble your Type SFS Power Filter.
2. Before you begin to assemble the pool, identify, count, and check all parts needed for assembly.
3. It is recommended that you have some PETROLEUM JELLY on hand for lubricating the gaskets.
1. Installer shall follow written instructions provided for operation of the circulation systems.
2. All electrical components shall be installed in accordance with Article 680 of the National Electrical Code (NEC)
“Swimming Pools, Fountains and Similar Installations” or its latest approved edition.
3. The Filter Cartridge (9) 3-3/4” will hold as many as 2 of the 1” diameter chlorine tablets and the 8” will hold as
many as 6 of the 1” diameter chlorine tablets. Check your chlorine levels to determine the proper number of
chlorine tablets to add. The filter cartridge will automatically dispense chlorine into the pool as the pump runs.
You must have the type of Filter Cartridge (9) with a central core mesh divider (See page 3) to use the
chlorine dispenser. DO NOT use this to dispense powdered chlorine, shock treatment or any other type of
chemicals as damage to the pump, filter cartridge, and pool will occur.

insulated and grounded - 115 V.A.C. - 60 Hz. (Unit must have a minimum of 105 V.A.C. to start and run properly.)

DISTRIBUTED BY: POLYGROUP LIMITED (MCO)

Do not bury cord. Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment.
The unit is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI
should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner,
the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the pump without the test button being pushed, a ground
current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this pump. Disconnect the pump and
have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
