IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR ALL MODELS:
When installing and using this electrical equipment,
basic safety precautions should always be fol-
lowed, including the following:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not
permit children to use this product unless they are
closely supervised at all times.
3. WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Connect only to
a grounding type receptacle protected by a Ground
Fault Interrupter (GFCI).
Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot verify that
the receptacle is protected by a GFCI.
4. Do not bury cord. Locate cord to minimize abuse
from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equip-
ment.
5. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock,
replace damaged cord immediately.
6. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do
not use an extension cord to connect unit to the

7. CAUTION: This pump is for use with storable pools
only. Do not use with permanently installed pools. A
storable pool is constructed so it may be readily disas-
sembled for storage and reassembled to its original
integrity. A permanently installed pool is constructed in
or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be
readily disassembled for storage.

8. CAUTION: This pump is for use with permanently
installed pools and may also be used with hot tubs and
spas if so marked. Do not use with storable pools. A
permanently installed pool is constructed in or on the
ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily
disassembled for storage. A storable pool is con-
structed so that it may be readily disassembled for
storage and reassembled to its original integrity.

ELECTRICAL SOURCE
FOR UL MODELS:

Your pump is supplied with a 25 foot, 3-wire electrical
cord and a 3-pronged plug. The pump is double insu-
lated and grounded. The pump electrical cord must be
connected to a grounded, 3-wire, 115 VAC electrical
receptacle.
The pump should be connected to a receptalce on a
dedicated circuit protected by a 20 AMP circuit breaker.
DO NOT use a grounding adaptor.
The receptacle must be protected by a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) in accordance with Article 680-
31 of the National Electrical Code (NEC), (Section 68-
204 of the Canadian Electrical Code (CSA) and local
codes or ordinances. For runs greater than 25 feet,
consult your local licensed electrical contractor.
FOR NEC/UL MODELS ONLY:

Your pump is suppplied with a 3-foot, 3-wire electrical
cord and a 3-prong flanged, twist-lock plug.
The pump electrical cord must be connected to a single
twist lock, grounding type receptalcle that is located a
minimum of 5 feet from the inside pool wall.
A qualified electrical contractor must install this recep-
tacle in accordance with Article 680-6 of the National
Electrical Code (NEC). A Ground Fault Interrupter
(GFCI) must be used. An ON/OFF Switch must be
installed at the receptacle.
Use a Hubbell No. 2310 Receptacle, 20 AMP 125 Volt
A.C. or an equivalent receptalcle that meets NEMA
Configuration L5-20R.
This pump is double insulated and grounded. Dead
metal parts are not in contact with pool water.
CAUTION
1. DO NOT install the pump on a deck, it could fall into
the water, causing severe electrical shock. Do not
install on any surface at, above, or slightly below the
top rail of the pool.
2. DO NOT allow children or adults to climb, sit, or
stand on the pump unit. They could easily fall.
Position the filter and pump approximately 4 feet
from the pool wall so they may not be used as steps
by children.
3. Always keep the water level in your pool between the
water level markers on the skimmer face plate. If the
pump is run with water level too low, the pump seal
may overheat and cause permanent damage to the
pump.
4. Your Pool Power Pak must sit in it's pump base, on
a patio block, or on any firm surface that slightly
elevates the pump off the ground. This keeps water
away from the motor and prevents the vents of the
Power Pak from becoming blocked, which could
cause the motor to overheat.
SUCTION AND DISCHARGE CONNECTIONS
Your Pool Power Pak is provided with two union socket
connections for hard plumbing to 1-1/2" PVC pipe or flex
pipe and two union hose adaptors for connecting to 1-1/2"
inside diameter hose. Install o-ring into groove on end of
the body outlets, then position either the union socket or
hose adaptor and secure in place with the union nut.
