Carefully read, understand, and follow all information in this user manual before installing and
using the Filter Pump. These warnings, instructions, and safety guidelines address some common
risks of water filtration systems, but they cannot cover all risks and dangers in all cases. Always
use caution, common sense, and good judgment when enjoying any water activity. Retain this
information for future use. In addition, the following information can be supplied depending on the
Filter Pump type. Keep the instructions in a safe place. If instruction is missing, search it on the

When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING -
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY
, do not permit children to use
this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
WARNING -
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
. Connect only to a grounding type
receptacle. This product is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter. If replacement of the
plug is needed,use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING:
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.
CAUTION -
To reduce the risk of electric shock the pool must be installed no closer
than 6 feet (1.8 m) from any electrical outlet. Do not place portable appliances closer than 5 feet
(1.5 m) from the pool.
WARNING:
The pump is not intended to be bonded to the equipotential bonding grid.
DO NOT BURY CORD
. Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and
other equipment.
WARNING -
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
IF FILTER PUMP POWER CORD
BECOMES DAMAGED IN ANY WAY, THE PUMP MUST BE DISCARDED.
WARNING -
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use extension cord to
connect unit to electric supply; provide a properly located outlet.
CAUTION -
This pump is for use with storable pools only. Do not use with
permanently-installed pools. A storable pool is constructed so that it is capable of being readily
disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity. A permanently-installed pool
is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for
storage.
CAUTION -
For continued protection against possible electric shock this unit is to
be mounted to the base in accordance with the installation instructions.
NOTE:
• THERMALLY PROTECTED MOTOR.
• FOR USE WITH SWIMMING POOLS ONLY.
CAUTION:
TO ENSURE CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST SHOCK HAZARD,
USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS WHEN SERVICING.
WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. CONNECT ONLY TO A GROUNDING
TYPE RECEPTACLE.
CAUTION:
THIS PUMP IS FOR USE WITH STORABLE POOLS ONLY - DO NOT
USE WITH PERMANENTLY-INSTALLED POOLS.
CAUTION:
CONNECT ONLY TO GROUNDING TYPE RECEPTACLE PROTECTED
BY A CLASS A GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER.
CAUTION:
FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST POSSIBLE ELECTRIC
SHOCK THIS UNIT IS TO BE MOUNTED TO THE BASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING -
RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
- Connect Only To Properly Grounded Outlet. Do Not Remove Ground Pin.
- Inspect Cord Before Using – Do Not Use If Cord Is Damaged.
- Keep Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter Dry And Off The Ground.
- Do Not Touch Plug With Wet Hands.
- Double Insulated – When Servicing Use Only Identical Replacement Parts.
- Read Instruction Manual Before Using.
DO NOT REMOVE THIS TAG

• Loose cover/grates shall be reattached before bathers are allowed to use the pool.
• Replace suction fittings every 2 years.
• The use of adhesives or other attachment methods that prevent access to suction piping or SOFA
components requiring periodic servicing is prohibited.
• Refer to the following diagram for each SOFA component part instructions:
- Any field modification made to a SOFA not authorized by the manufacturer’s installation instructions
shall void the SOFA certification.
- No modification shall be made to a SOFA structure or flow path unless the new configuration
has been certified as new SOFA.
- Cover/grates and all other SOFA components shall be replaced at or before the end of their service
life and that service life begins the month and year in which a SOFA component is installed with
