If your pump has threads on the
outside
of the outlet
(top of the pump) then you will thread one of the
connection fittings directly onto it. Thread opposite
side directly onto the “FROM PUMP” port of the filter
and hand tighten connection (see Figures 21 & 22).

If your pump ONLY has threads on the
inside
of the
outlet (top of the pump) then you will need to use the
union adapter
(J)
. Cover the male threads of the
union adapter with Teflon tape and thread the union
adapter directly into the outlet on the pump. At this
point you may thread one of the connection fittings
directly onto the union adapter and the other onto
the “FROM PUMP” port of the filter and hand tighten
the connection (see Figures 21 & 22).
Finally, attach second 6’ filter hose
(B)
using clamps
(D)
to the fitting on the
bottom of your thru wall skimmer and the
other end onto the front of your pump
(see Figure 23a and 23b). Once clamped
in place you are done installing the filter
system.
