 For the operation of this filter system with Above Ground pools, you need a skimmer installed in your
pool. Either an integrated skimmer (built into the pool wall) or a suspended floating skimmer (attachment
to the pool wall).
 The installation area must allow an adequate safety margin to the pool wall. Refer to local and national
codes for required distance between the filter system and the pool wall.
 We recommend putting the filter system on a concrete slab or similar. Be sure the
Installation site is level.
 Additional installation accessories such as hoses, hoses clamps, and filter sand
(not included) are available from your pool dealer.
K. Filter-Pump Assembly (Figures 1-3)
1. Filter pump & Base Plate assembly
a. Secure water pump to the base plate with the provided pump mounting hardware. Orient as shown.
(Figure1)
b. Place the base plate and pump in the location where the Pump Filter System will be located for normal
operation and within reach of the pool filter and return hoses but with a sufficient safety margin from the edge
of the pool. Attach the filter tank to the base plate as shown. The feet on the bottom of the filter tank fit within
the holes provided on the base plate (Figure 3).
c. Filling sand chamber with sand (Figure 4-7)
 Position the filter pump assembly to the location you have dedicated for its operation. NOTE: Do this
before you fill the chamber with sand as the unit will become heavy and difficult to move around.
 Check to ensure that the bottom strainer is correctly positioned.
 Check to ensure that the tank separator plate is seated properly.
 Check to ensure that the upper distributor is located under the tank cover.
 Fill the sand chamber half full with water.
 Pour #20 Pool Filter Grade silica sand into the SAND FILTER CHAMBER being careful not to allow any
sand to enter the FILTERED WATER CHAMBER.
NOTE: Installation of sand other than #20 Pool Filter Sand will NOT function properly,
and may void your warranty.
d. Secure the lid/valve to the filter tank (Figure 8)
 Ensure the main tank seal around the top of the filter tank is in good condition and securely seated in the
groove. Be sure groove is free of sand.
 Carefully place the tank cover onto the filter tank. The tank cover should be oriented so that the notch on
the cover is aligned with the matching tab on the filter tank-this ensures proper alignment.
 Secure tank cover and filter tank with the tank cover lock ring assembly and tighten with the knob and
bolt.
2. Pump hose connections (Figure 9-18)
a. Attach the 1¼” / 1½” hose connector & collar onto the intake port of the filter pump. Ensure that the
O-ring is installed between the port and the connector.
b. Skimmers: Connect hose from pool skimmer to the intake fitting on the filter pump. Secure with a hose
clamp.
c. Pressure line: Connect the flexible 1½” hose from the upper discharge point on the top of the filter pump to
the connector with designation “PUMP” on the 7-way valve. (Figures 13&18)
d. Return line: Connect a flexible hose (not included with your system) from the 7-way valve port with the
