AN AUTHORISED ELECTRICIAN.
WARNING! Pump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown or
disembowel bathers. Do not block suction. Do not use or operate
swimming pools if a suction cover is broken, missing or loose. Two
suction covers and inlets must be provided into every pump to avoid
suction entrapment.
Caution! Do not add chemicals directly to the pool skimmer. Adding
undiluted chemicals may damage pump and filter and void warranty.
Small children using the pool must ALWAYS have close
adult supervision.
Routine Maintenance tasks – to maximise the life of your pool equipment
& personal safety, use this checklist once a week. Turn pump off first.
a. Make sure that any pressure gauges are in working condition and the
operating pressure is within limits as specified on the product.
b. Make sure that each suction inlet, and main drain has a cover that is
securely attached and in safe working condition.
c. Make sure that all skimmer covers are securely attached and in safe working
condition. These should be replaced every 3 to 4 years.
d. Remove any obstructions or debris from the main drain cover.
e. Ensure the skimmer baskets and the pump hair and lint pots are free of
leaves and debris at least once a week.
f. Remove obstructions and combustibles from around the pump motor.
g. Make sure all wiring connections are clean and that all wiring and electrical
equipment is in good condition. Damaged wiring must be repaired or
replaced by a qualified electrician as soon as damage is discovered.
h. Check water balance and sanitiser levels at your local pool shop.
i. Check for sufficient air-flow behind pump – clearance.
DANGER – Hazardous suction. Do not block water entry into filtration
system with any part of your body as the pressure can trap hair or body
parts, causing severe injury or death. Do not block suction.
Turn off pump immediately if someone becomes trapped.
