USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS
WARNING
-
Risk of Electrical Shock. It is required that licensed electricians do all the
electrical wiring.
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or cause death. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do
NOT use an extension cord to connect unit to electric supply. Provide properly located outlet. All electrical wiring
MUST be in conformance with applicable local and national codes and regulations. Before working on pump or
motor, disconnect motor wiring.
WARNING
-
To reduce the risk of electrical shock replace damaged cord immediately. Do NOT bury cord. Locate cord to
prevent abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers and other equipment.
WARNING
-
Connect only to a grounding type receptacle protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
Contact a licensed electrician if you cannot verify that the receptacle is protected by a GFCI.
WARNING
-
Failure to bond pump to pool structure will increase risk of electrocution and could result in injury or death. To
reduce the risk of electrical shock, see installation instructions and consult a professional electrician on how to bond pump. Also, contact a
licensed electrician for information on local electrical codes for bonding requirements.
Use a solid copper conductor, size 6 or larger. Run continuous wire from external bonding lug to reinforcing rod or mesh. Connect a No. 6
AWG solid copper bonding wire to the pressure wire connector provided on the motor housing and to all metal parts of swimming pool, spa,
or hot tub, and to all the electrical equipment, metal piping (except gas piping), and conduit within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of inside walls of swimming
pool, spa, or hot tub.
IMPORTANT
- Reference Canadian Electrical Codes for all wiring standards including, but not limited to grounding,
bonding and other general wiring procedures.
WARNING
-
Suction Entrapment Hazard.
Suction in suction outlets and/or suction outlet covers which are damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or
unsecured cause sever injury and/or death due to the following entrapment hazards:
Hair Entrapment
- Hair can become entangled in suction outlet cover.
Limb Entrapment
- A limb inserted into an opening of a section outlet sump or suction outlet cover that is
damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached can result in a medical bind or swelling of the
limb.
Body Suction Entrapment
- A differential pressure applied to a large portion of the body or limbs can result in an entrapment.
Evisceration/Disembowelment
- A negative pressure applied directly to the intestines through an unprotected suction outlet
sump or suction outlet cover which is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or unsecured can result in
evisceration/disembowelment.
Mechanical Entrapment
- There is potential for jewelry, swimsuits, hair decorations, fingers, toes, or knuckles to be caught in
an opening of a suction outlet cover resulting in mechanical entrapment.
WARNING
-
To Reduce the risk of Entrapment Hazards:
- When outlets are small enough to be blocked by a person, a minimum of two functioning suction outlets per
pump must be installed. Suction outlets in the same place (i.e. floor or wall), must be installed a minimum of
three feet (3’) [0.91 meter] apart, as measured from near point to near point.
- Dual suction fittings shall be placed in such locations and distanced to avoid “dual blockage” by a user.
- Dual suction fittings shall not be located on seating areas or on the backrest for such seating areas.
- The maximum system flow rate shall not exceed the values shown in the “Pipe Sizing Chart” found at the bottom of page 4 of this manual
- Never use pool or spa if any suction outlet component is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached.
- Replace damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached suction outlet components immediately.
- In addition to two or more suction outlets per pump installed in accordance with the latest IAF (formerly NSPI) standards and CPSC
guidelines, follow all national, state, and local codes applicable.
- Installation of a vacuum release or vent system, which relieves entrapping suction, is recommended.
