1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Congratulations on your recent purchase of a HY-CLOR Pump. Please take a moment to read
through the entire manual before installing your new pump. Your pump must be installed and
operated as specied.
2.0 SAFETY INFORMATION
2.1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS. SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2.1.1 WARNING: Hazardous Suction. Pump suction is hazardous and can trap hair and body parts
resulting in severe injury or death. Do not block ltration suction lines with any part of your body. If
someone becomes trapped, immediately turn the pump off.
2.1.2 WARNING: Two suction inlets (minimum 500mm apart) must be provided into every pump
to avoid suction entrapment. If a suction cover is broken, missing or loose, do not operate the
swimming pool or spa.
2.1.3 A qualied technician should carry out the pump installation.
2.1.4 Always wear protective clothing and gloves when handling adhesives.
2.1.5 The pump must be installed and operated in accordance with national wiring rules.
2.1.6 Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
2.1.7 If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
2.1.8 This appliance is not intended to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
2.1.9 The pump power must be supplied through a residual current device (RCD) having a rated residual
operating current not exceeding 30mA.
2.1.10 Routinely check the pump basket, skimmer and entire pool system to maximise the life of the
pool equipment and personal safely. Always turn the pump off before carrying out checks and
maintenance.
2.1.11 DO NOT remove any safety alert labels on the pump such as DANGER, WARNING or CAUTION.

3.0 INSTALLATION
3.1 LOCATION
3.1.1 Locate the pump as close to the pool as practical and in accordance with any relevant regulations or
recommendations.
3.1.2 The pump must be installed in a dry and well-ventilated position protected from the elements.
3.1.3 A clearance of 250mm is required behind the motor for ease of removal and ventilation.
3.1.4 The pump must be installed horizontally, at 3 metres maximum below or maximum 0.3 metres
above the pool water level without consulting manufacturer.
3.1.5 DO NOT store or use gasoline or other ammable gases or liquids in the vicinity of this pump. DO
NOT store pool chemicals near the pump.
3.1.6 Flooding or moisture in the motor voids warranty. Ensure the pump is elevated and kept dry and
free from ooding.
3.2 PLUMBING CONNECTION
3.2.1 The piping should be as direct and free from turns or bends as possible as elbows and other ttings
can greatly reduce ow efciency.
3.2.2 If the pump is located below water level, isolation valves must be installed on both sides of the
pump to prevent the back ow of pool water during any routine or required servicing.
3.2.3 Use PVC ttings for all connections. A 50mm (2”) suction inlet/outlet union is provided to suit 40mm
pipe. The suction and discharge pipes must not be smaller in diameter than the pump ttings
(otherwise ow rates may be affected).
3.2.4 Use plumbing cleaner primer to clean and prepare the pipe ends and union sockets.
Place the union collars over the pipe ends. Using plumbing solvent cement glue the union sockets
to the pipe ends. Allow at least 24 hours for any adhesive to dry thoroughly before starting the
pump.
3.2.5 Ensure that the o-rings are tted to the union sockets and apply a suitable o-ring lubricant
as required. Also check that the pump basket lid o-ring is sufciently lubricated.
3.2.6 Suction and discharge lines should be independently supported at a point near the pump
to avoid strain being placed on the pump.

3.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
3.3.1 HY-CLOR pumps are suitable for connection to a nominal 220-240VAC 50hz power supply.
3.3.2 The motor is equipped with a exible cable and 3-pin plug. If a power outlet is not available within
2 metres of the pump, a 3-pin power point in a safe dry place will need to be provided
by an electrician.
3.3.3 The pump power must be supplied through a residual current device (RCD) having a rated residual
operating current not exceeding 30mA.
3.3.4 Extension cords are unsafe around pools and must be avoided
4.0 OPERATION
4.1 GENERAL START UP GUIDE
4.1.1 CAUTION: Never run the pump without water. Running the pump “dry“ for any length of time can
cause severe damage to both the pump and the motor and will void the warranty.
4.1.2 If it is a new pool installation, make sure all piping is clear of construction debris and has been
properly pressure tested. Special care must be taken to ensure no small pebbles are ingested into
the pump as this voids the warranty.
4.1.3 The lter should be checked for proper installation, verifying that all connections are secure
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
4.1.4 Depending on the location of the pump, do one of the following:
a) If the pump is located below the water level of the pool, open the lter pressure valve to prime
the pump with water.
b) If the pump is located above the water level of the pool, remove the lid and ll the basket with
water before starting the pump.
4.1.5 Prior to replacing the lid, check for debris around the lid o-ring seat. Debris around the lid o-ring
seat will make it difcult to prime the pump and may damage the o-ring.
4.1.6 Hand-tighten the lid to make an air tight seal (do not use any tools to tighten as damage may
occur).
4.1.7 Make sure all valves are open and the unions are tight. Turn on the pump, the pump will take a
short time to prime and then deliver at full rate. No further priming should be required.
4.1.8 If prime is not established within approximately two minutes (as evidenced by a strong ow of water
from the outlet) switch off the pump and repeat the procedure above (5.1.4 through 5.1.7).
4.1.9 If bubbles persist under the lid there is a leak in the suction connections or the lid is not sealed
properly, switch off the pump and repeat the procedure above (5.1.5 through 5.1.7).
