WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury and product damage:
Feeders are designed to use only Chlorine (Trichloro-s-triazinetrione) or Bromine
(Bromochloro -5, 5 Dimethylhydantoin) tablets, slow dissolving type. UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES MIXTrichlor OR Bromine with Calcium Hypochlorite, with other forms of
concentrated chlorine, or with other chemicals FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT.
NEVER use oils or grease to lubricate 0-ring. Oil in contact with Trichlor OR Bromine may result
in FIRE. Caution should be used when removing feeder cap. Do not inhale fumes.
If shock treatments or Algaecides containing chemicals other than sanitizer tablets in feeder
must be used, then turn o feeder OR remove tablets until the shock or algae treatment is
complete and all granules have dissolved. Failure to do so may result
in granules mixing in feeder causing FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION.The shock or algae treatment
dissolved in water is safe with tablets.

not smoke and avoid sparks and open ames.Turn o pump and control valve before opening
