6. Place the Hex Head Screws into the holes. Start all the Hex Head
Screws one and a half turns each. Proceed to tighten each screw, a few
turns at a time, equally in sequence around the Face Plate.
IMPORTANT: Do not tighten any screw fully. Tightening a screw too much on one side alone
may result in the faceplate developing a leak because the screws have not been tightened
equally. Alternate tightening each screw an equal amount, each in sequence, until all are
equally tight and you have a good even seal.
Warning! Be sure not to over tighten the screws, you just need a water tight seal.
7. Now locate the pump and lubricate the pump O-ring with petroleum jelly (not provided). This O-ring is located on the Volute Housing Inlet as
shown in Fig 2. Hold the Skimmer Canister securely, and insert motor pump so that the outlet on the volute housing extends out of the opening
in the side of the filter case as shown in Fig. 2. Fasten the Pump Mounting Screws by screwdriver (not provided) to attach the pump onto the
skimmer canister as shown in Fig. 2.
8. Locate the Pool Wall Fitting assembly parts - . Lubricate the black Fitting Gasket with petroleum jelly and install it over the threads on
the Pool Wall Fitting . Insert the pool wall fitting with the gasket through the hole in the wall from the inside of the pool.
9. Place the Return Fitting Washer over the pool wall fitting and then thread the Return Fitting Lock Nut onto the fitting until it is hand tight.
DO NOT over tighten the Return Fitting Lock Nut or wrinkle the pool wall around the Return Fitting Washer or Fitting Gasket .
10. Now apply some petroleum jelly to the thread of the Elbow 90° and install the elbow into the wall fitting assembly. Install the Return Fitting
Diverter and Locking Ring onto the wall fitting.
11. Get the Return Hose and remove the two Hose Clamps from the hardware bag. Loosen the hose clamps and slide them over the ends
of the hose. It is recommended to lubricate the O-Rings on the Volute Housing Outlet (see Fig. 2) and on the Elbow 90° before installing the
hose. Install the hose on the volute housing outlet and on the Elbow 90° . Tighten both of the Hose Clamps . See Fig. 3.

10 Should you encounter any problems, contact Customer Service at [phone] from 8 AM to 5 PM Mon. thru Fri.
MST. Extended operating days and hours during peak season requirements.
12. Place the Filter Cartridge and the Skimmer Strainer Basket back into the Filter Pump Skimmer Canister . It is important that the filter cartridge
slips over the Volute Housing Inlet (see Fig. 2) and seals at the bottom of the canister so that the Skimmer Strainer Basket will seat properly in it's groove
inside the canister. See Fig. 4
13. Place the Lock Top on top of the Filter Pump Skimmer Canister and lock it in place by turning it clockwise until it is locked.

1. Plug the GFCI power cord to a properly grounded receptacle. It is recommended that the outlet is at least 15 feet (4.5m)
away from the pool.
2.
3.
4.
5.
IMPORTANT: To start the filter pump, press the RESET button on the GFCI plug.
Check the return fitting on the inside of the pool for correct flow, it should feel like a solid stream of water returning to the
pool.
You can use the return flow as a gauge to determine when the filter needs cleaning or replacement. If you feel a
reduction in flow, clean or replace filter.
Test water and adjust chemicals as needed, read Page 12 - “POOL WATER CARE”. VERY IMPORTANT – FILTER PUMP
ALONE WILL NOT PREVENT ALGAE FROM GROWING IN POOL WATER; THIS CAN ONLY BE DONE BY MAINTAINING
PROPER CHLORINE AND pH LEVELS AT ALL TIMES!
The filter cartridge may need to be cleaned and/or replaced several times at start up until the correct chlorine and pH levels
are attained. We recommend that you keep at least one spare filter cartridge on hand at all times. Filter cartridges may be
purchased at the store you purchased your pool from, or ordered from Polygroup® at polygroupstore.com
6. IMPORTANT: To turn off the filter pump, press the test button and unplug the GFCI power cord.
IMPORTANT! Your filter pump is protected by a thermal switch. The switch senses the temperature of the filter pump. If it gets too hot, the switch will
stop the pump from running until it cools off. To restart the pump press the reset button on the GFCI when the filter pump has cooled down. This is a
safety device to prevent pump damage and prolong service life. If your pump is automatically turning off, it is because of high pool water
temperature and/or low water flow through the pump. If this happens you need to check the water flow and correct it if needed, as this filter pump
uses the water flow for cooling. You may also want to run the pump at night when the temperature is lower.
PUMP MOTOR PROTECTION
15. Fill the pool with water. Continue filling the pool until the water has
reached the proper level. The water level should be between the min
and max markers (see Fig. 4) located on the faceplate inside the pool
at the skimmer opening.
16. Adjust the return fitting diverter for proper water circulation.
It is recommended to point the
return fitting diverter down and
away from the suction or water
intake for optimum pool circulation.
17. Plug in the GFCI power cord and enjoy your pool.

FILTER CARTRIDGE CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT
by turning it counterclockwise. Then remove the Skimmer 1. First, turn off the pump and unplug the GFCI, remove the Skimmer Lock Top
Strainer Basket and the Filter Cartridge.
2. Basic Cleaning: Clean the filter cartridge by throughly pressure washing inside and out with a
garden hose. Allow a few hours for the filter to fully dry and CAREFULLY BRUSH the pleats to
avoid damaging the filter cartridge. DO NOT scrub the pleated surface areas. Cleaning and
scrubbing a filter too vigorously will also wear out the cartridge much faster than if it is simply hosed
off correctly.
3. To remove tough oils (e.g. suntan lotion, body oils, etc...) it is recommended to soak cartridge in a 1
lb. trisodium phosphate solution (TSP or any other strong detergent) to 5 gallons water for up to 12
hrs. Rinse cartridge to remove dirt. To remove algae, add 1/2 pint of pool chlorine or 1 pint of liquid
household bleach to the cleaning solution above. Leave the cartridge in the solution for 1 hour then
thoroughly rinse before reuse.
4. Excessive calcium and/or mineral deposits may build up on a filter cartridge and should be handled
differently. Contact your local pool supply store to ask about additional filter cartridge cleaners or
treatment for calcium or mineral deposits. Check pool chemistry for high pH or alkalinity; this may
cause a calcium or mineral build-up.
5. Replace filter cartridge in canister, replace strainer basket replace top cover.
6. A Spare "stand by" Filter Cartridge is an excellent investment. It provides a convenient way to
continue filtration of your pool while cleaning or replacing a dirty Filter Cartridge . Also, a well
maintained, clean cartridge assures you that your filter will always be ready to operate at peak
efficiency.
7. Filter cartridges may be purchased at the store you purchased your pool from, or ordered from
Polygroup® at polygroupstore.com. Always replace with genuine Polygroup® SUMMER WAVES®
filter cartridges.
1. Check and adjust pH and chlorine levels daily using required chemicals. See Page 12 Section “POOL WATER CARE” or contact your local pool store.
2. Check filter pump output daily. If flow is reduced, see Symptom 2 in Section “TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE”.
3. Check filter pump, hoses and fitting for leaks. If a leak is found, see Symptom 4 in Section “TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE”.
4. Run the pump for the recommended number of hours daily. If you are unsure of the time frame please refer to support.polygroupstore.com for the recommended
"Pump Operation Hours" bases on pool types and sizes.

OWNER’S MANUAL
POOL WATER CARE
1. The following items are required and readily available from your local pool supply store:
•TEST KIT - Used to check chlorine and pH levels.
•1” CHLORINE TABLETS - Used to disinfect pool water and help control the growth of algae.
•pH CONTROL CHEMICALS - Used to adjust pH levels Up (Soda Ash) or Down (Acid).
•ALGAECIDES - Used to eliminate algae.
•SUPERCHLORINATOR - Used to destroy combined chlorine, ammonia, nitrogen, and organic compounds.
•LEAF / SKIMMER NET with handle - Used to remove leaves, trash, insects, etc. from your pool. This item can be purchased at
polygroupstore.com.
•FILTER CARTRIDGE CHLORINE DISPENSER (Inside Polygroup®’s patented Filter Cartridge U.S. Pat. 7,005,062) - Used to dispense 1”
chlorine tablets ONLY.
See Section "FILTER PUMP IMPORTANT NOTES" on page 7.
2. Use test kit daily to check pH and chlorine levels. Adjust accordingly using the required chemicals.
NOTE : Excessive levels of chlorine or low pH levels will damage pool liner and may also change the color of the liner.
3. The pool can be cleaned using a maintenance kit with vacuum from Polygroup®. This item can be purchased at polygroupstore.com.
4. Using a foot bath near the pool to wash off your feet prior to entering the pool will assist in keeping the pool clean.
5. Well water often presents special problems with water chemistry. If you must use well water, take a sample to your local pool chemical supplier
for analysis before adding ANY chemicals.
6. Refer to the retail package box or visit the support pages at support.polygroupstore.com for the capacity of your pool. You will need this
information to determine the amount of chemicals you will need to properly maintain the pool water. NOTE: It is recommended to use a 5 gallon
bucket of water to mix and dissolve any chemicals before adding to the pool water.
Follow the manufacturer's label directions on all chemicals.*Most pool supply stores will test your pool water for free and advise you of what
chemicals you need, and the correct amount to use for your pool. You will need to tell them the pool capacity in gallons.
7. IMPORTANT - We cannot over-stress the importance of proper and adequate daily chemical treatment. Chlorine and pH levels must be
properly maintained at all times.
PUMP AND FILTER ALONE WILL NOT PREVENT ALGAE FROM GROWING IN POOL WATER; THIS CAN ONLY BE DONE BY MAINTAINING
PROPER CHLORINE AND pH LEVELS AT ALL TIMES.
• Maintain pH level between 7.3 and 7.8.
• Maintain chlorine level between 1.0 and 1.6 ppm (parts per million).
• Superchlorinate your pool at least every other week or as needed.
NOTE :
1. Hot weather or heavy use may require pH and chlorine levels to be maintained on the upper side of the scale and superchlorination of the pool
every week.
2. Using a pool cover and/or solar cover (available at polygroupstore.com) will assist in maintaining your pH and chlorine levels by reducing the
amount of evaporation from your pool.
CAUTION - Concentrated chlorine levels and low pH levels will damage pool. You must follow the instructions for the pool chemicals you use, as to
quantity and recommended usage.
NEVER drop lumps or pellets of chemicals into the pool; this may present a hazard to swimmers and/or damage your liner.
Remove the skimmer lock top and
skimmer strainer basket to insert chlorine
tablets into Polygroup®’s patented
Filter Cartridges.

ROTOR INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Once the pump has been removed from the canister you are ready to inspect or replace your rotor assembly.
(REMEMBER TO KEEP ALL PARTS IN A SAFE PLACE FOR REASSEMBLY LATER)
1. Refer to the below pump motor assembly illustration for the F350C/F400C pump to replace the rotor assembly.
2. Remove the volute housing Phillips Head mounting screws that hold down the volute cover. (see image below)
3. Grasp the pump body in one hand and the volute housing discharge nozzle in the other hand.
4. Rotate the discharge nozzle counterclockwise to release the tabs on the volute housing from the brackets on the pump body.
5. Pull upwards once the tabs are clear of the brackets. Please be careful as the rotor assembly has multiple parts which may come out separately.
6. Inspect the rotor assembly to make sure that it has all of its parts and that the center shaft, magnetic axle, or impeller blades are not broken as this will cause the
pump to fail. If your rotor assembly is broken a complete rotor assembly may be purchased at polygroupstore.com without having to replace the whole pump.
7. Please see Pool Support - Filtration System Troubleshooting for the SFS 350/400 Filtration System at support.polygroupstore.com.
PLEASE NOTE: Even if the rotor assembly is in perfect condition if it is not seated properly between the volute cover and the pump it will not function correctly.
8. Once the rotor assembly has been checked or if replacing with a new rotor assembly, slowly insert the rotor assembly back down into the pump carefully. The
force of the magnet will pull the rotor assembly into the pump. Ensure that the rotor assembly is assembled and aligned correctly inside the pump body.
9. Once the rotor has been inserted, fasten the volute housing tabs back under the brackets on the pump body by turning the volute housing discharge nozzle
clockwise then tighten the volute housing Phillips Head mounting screws to complete the reassembly of the pump.
10. Now lubricate the pump O-ring with petroleum jelly (not provided). This O-ring is located on the volute housing Inlet as shown in Fig 2. Hold the pump skimmer
canister securely, and insert motor pump so that the outlet on the volute housing extends out of the opening in the side of the filter case as shown in Fig. 2.

firmemente sujeta a un flotador de salvamento aprobado con un diámetro exterior de aproximadamente 38,1 cm, o un dispositivo de flotación aprobado similar.
14. La piscina debe estar situada a una distancia mínima de 1,83 m de cualquier toma de corriente, y todas las tomas de 125 V 15-20 A situadas en un radio de 6 m
de la piscina deben protegerse con un interruptor diferencial (GFCI), donde las distancias sean, por medida, la ruta más corta que seguiría el cable de alimentación
de un aparato conectado al receptáculo, sin penetrar un suelo, pared, techo, marco con puerta abisagrada o corredera, apertura de una ventana o cualquier otra
barrera permanente eficaz, hasta la pared interior de la piscina.

Productos químicos
Por motivos de seguridad, asegúrese de que la parte más profunda de la piscina siempre esté visible. El usuario debe llevar a cabo en todo momento un mantenimiento
adecuado del agua de la piscina para que esté limpia. Compruebe los niveles de pH y cloro periódicamente y asegúrese de que están dentro de los límites
recomendados. De vez en cuando, podrían ser necesarios productos químicos adicionales para tratar el agua. Lleve a analizar una muestra de agua a la tienda local de
suministros de piscina para determinar si necesita más productos químicos. Active el sistema de bomba del filtro durante al menos 6 horas al día. Limpie y cambie el
cartucho del filtro con frecuencia. Reemplazar solo con un cartucho de filtro original de la marca Polygroup® / Summer Waves®. Consulte el manual de la bomba del filtro
para más información sobre el cuidado del agua.
