For Professional Technical Support call 1-844-242-2475                                                                                                                        5 

 

1. Connecting a check valve 

 

Install the check valve to the pump outlet  

NOTE: Be sure anti-airlock hole is pointing upward. 

 

 

 

 

2. Connecting a debris strainer 

 

Install the “snap-on” debris strainer. Begin by lining up the pump base 
profile with the profile of the strainer base using the switch housing as a 
guide. Tilt the pump back and guide the rear of the pump (opposite the 
discharge) into the strainer base. Once the rear of the pump is in place, 
gently rotate the pump down until the latch engages.  

 

To remove debris strainer release latch and guide pump out of strainer in 
the reverse motion of installation 

NOTE: Always use debris strainer when placing pump on a pool cover .The 

strainer helps protect the pool cover from damage, filters debris, and increases 

pump stability. 

 

3. Connecting a 3/4 in. garden hose or 1-1/4 in. hose kit 

NOTE:

 

Be sure the 3/4 in. garden hose thread connector has a rubber gasket to 

minimize water leaks. 

 

Attach  a  garden  hose  with  a  3/4  in.  garden  hose  thread  (not  included)  to  the 
check valve.

 

 

 

 
 

 
If you would prefer to use a 1-1/4 in. hose kit (not included) in order to pump water 
away more quickly.

 

WARNING: Secure the discharge hose before plugging in the pump. An unsecured 

discharge hose may “whip” possibly causing personal injury, and/or property damage. 

 

Securely attach the hose kit (not included) to the check valve.

 

 

4. Setting the pump on the pool cover

 

 

With pump unplugged set the pump on the pool cover, where water will collect. Do not set the pump directly on mud, 
sand surfaces or in leaves. 

NOTE

For best results make sure the pump strainer is making full contact with a clean area of the pool cover. This will 

allow the strainer to properly filter debris and help prevent clogging of the pump. If necessary clear an area of the pool 

cover before placing the pump. 

NOTE: Do not place the pump on a weak, damaged, or leaking pool cover. Placing the pump on a damaged pool cover 

could cause the cover to give way, or could allow the pump to remove treated swimming water from the pool in addition 

to rainwater.
