To Reduce the risk of Entrapment Hazards:
• When outlets are small enough to be blocked by a person, a minimum of two functioning suction outlets
per pump must be installed. Suction outlets in the same plane (i.e. oor or wall), must be installed a
minimum of three feet (3’) [1 meter] apart, as measured from near point to near point.
• Dual suction ttings shall be placed in such locations and distances to avoid “dual blockage” by a user.
• Dual suction ttings shall not be located on seating areas or on the backrest for such seating areas.
• The maximum system ow rate shall not exceed the ow rating as listed on Table 1.
• Never use pool or spa if any suction outlet component is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not
securely attached.
• Replace damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached suction outlet components
immediately.
• Install two or more suction outlets per pump in accordance with latest ASME, APSP Standards and CPSC
guidelines. Follow all applicable National, State, and Local codes.
• Installation of a vacuum release or vent system, which relieves entrapping suction, is recommended.
Failure to remove pressure test plugs and/or plugs used in winterization of the pool/spa
from the suction outlets can result in an increase potential for suction entrapment as
described above.
Failure to keep suction outlet components clear of debris, such as leaves, dirt, hair, paper
and other material can result in an increased potential for suction entrapment as
described above.
Suction outlet components have a nite life. The cover/grate should be inspected
frequently and replaced at least every ten years or if found to be damaged, broken,
cracked, missing, or not securely attached.
Components such as the ltration system, pumps and heater must be positioned so as to
prevent their being used as means of access to the pool by young children.
Never operate or test the circulation system at more than 50 PSI.
Never change the lter control valve position while the pump is running.
To reduce risk of injury, do not permit children to use or climb on this product. Closely
supervise children at all times.
Hazardous Pressure. Pool and spa water circulation systems operate under hazardous
pressure during start up, normal operation, and after pump shut o󰀨. Stand clear of
circulation system equipment during pump start up. Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could
result in violent separation of the pump housing and cover, and/or lter housing and clamp due to pressure in
the system, which could cause property damage, severe personal injury, or death. Before servicing pool and
spa water circulation system, all system and pump controls must be in o󰀨 position and lter manual air relief
valve must be in open position. Before starting system pump, all system valves must be set in a position to
allow system water to return back to the pool. Do not change lter control valve position while system pump is
running. Before starting system pump, fully open lter manual air relief valve. Do not close lter manual air
relief valve until a steady stream of water (not air or air and water) is discharged.
Separation Hazard. Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in
violent separation of pump and/or lter components. Strainer cover must be properly
secured to pump housing with strainer cover lock ring. Before servicing pool and spa circulation system, lter
manual air relief valve must be in open position. Do not operate pool and spa circulation system if a system
component is not assembled properly, damaged, or missing. Do not operate pool and spa circulation system
unless lter manual air relief valve body is in locked position in lter upper body.

Risk of Electric Shock. All electrical wiring MUST be in conformance with applicable
local codes, regulations, and the National Electric Code (NEC). Hazardous voltage can
shock, burn, and cause death or serious property damage. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT use an
extension cord to connect unit to electric supply. Provide a properly located electrical receptacle. Before
working on any electrical equipment, turn o󰀨 power supply to the equipment.
To reduce the risk of electric shock replace damaged wiring immediately. Locate conduit
to prevent contact from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers and other equipment.
Ground all electrical equipment before connecting to electrical power supply. Failure to
ground all electrical equipment can cause serious or fatal electrical shock hazard.
Do NOT ground to a gas supply line.
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock, turn OFF power to all electrical equipment
before working on electrical connections.
Failure to bond all electrical equipment to pool structure will increase risk for electrocution
and could result in injury or death. To reduce the risk of electric shock, see installation
instructions and consult a professional electrician on how to bond all electrical equipment. Also, contact a
licensed electrician for information on local electrical codes for bonding requirements.
Notes to electrician: Use a solid copper conductor, size 8 or larger. Run a continuous wire from external
bonding lug to reinforcing rod or mesh. Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) [No. 6 AWG (13.3 mm2) for Canada]
solid copper bonding wire to the pressure wire connector provided on the electrical equipment and to all metal
parts of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, and metal piping (except gas piping), and conduit within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of
inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.
Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not limited to, grounding,
bonding and other general wiring procedures.
Risk of Electric Shock. Connect only to a branch circuit protected by a ground-fault
circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualied electrician if you cannot verify that the circuit
is protected by a GFCI.
Risk of Electric Shock. The electrical equipment must be connected only to a supply
circuit that is protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be
provided by the installer and should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The
GFCI should interrupt power. Push reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this
manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the electrical equipment without the test button
being pushed, a ground current is owing, indicating the possibility of an electrical shock. Do not use this
electrical equipment. Disconnect the electrical equipment and have the problem corrected by a qualied
service representative before using.
This pump is intended for use with permanently-installed pools and may 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 constructed so that it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to
its original integrity.

This product should be installed and serviced only by a qualied professional.
PUMP LOCATION
Locate pump as close to pool as practical and run suction lines as direct as possible to reduce friction loss.
Suction line diameter must equal or be larger than the discharge line diameter. Suction lines should have
continuous slope upward from lowest point in line. Joints must be tight (but not over-tightened).
Though the pump is designed for outdoor use, it is strongly advised to protect the electrical components from
the weather. Select a well-drained area, one that will not ood when it rains. Do NOT install pump in a damp
or non-ventilated location. Keep motor clean. Pump motors require free circulation of air for cooling.
PUMP MOUNTING
Install pump on a rm, level base or pad to meet all local and national codes. Fasten pump to base or pad with
screws or bolts to further reduce vibration and stress on pipe or hose joints. The base MUST be solid, level,
rigid, and vibration free.
PUMP MOUNT MUST:
• Allow pump inlet height to be as close to water level as possible.
• Allow use of short, direct suction pipe (to reduce friction losses).
• Allow for gate valves in suction and discharge piping.
• Be protected from excess moisture and ooding.
• Allow adequate access for servicing pump and piping.
• Incorporate a straight portion of pipe prior to pump inlet no less than (5) pipe diameters in length.
Hazardous Pressure. Pumps, lters, and other equipment/components of a swimming
pool ltration system operate under pressure. Incorrectly installed and/or improperly
tested ltration equipment and/or components may fail resulting in injury and/or property damage.

PERFORMANCE
1. Find Your Pool Size
Use the formulas below to nd the capacity of your pool.
• Rectangular Pools: Length (ft.) x Width (ft.) x Average Depth (ft.) x 7.5 = Total pool capacity in gallons
• Circular Pools: Diameter (ft.) x Diameter (ft.) x Average Depth (ft.) x 5.9 = Total pool capacity in gallons
• Oval Pools: Length (ft.) x Width (ft.) x Average Depth (ft.) x 6.7 = Total pool capacity in gallons
Example for Rectangular Pool: 40 ft. L x 20 ft. W x 6 ft. average depth x 7.5 = 36,000 gallon capacity pool
2. Calculate Flow Rate, Gallons Per Minute (GPM) and Turnover
Pools should typically turn water over once every 8 hours. Use this ow rate formula along with your pool
capacity from step 1 to nd the Gallons Per Minute (GPM) you need for your system:
Pool Volume in Gallons ÷ Turnover Rate in Minutes = Flow Rate
Example: If you have a 30,000-gallon pool and you want the water to turn over once every eight hours:
30,000 ÷ 480 (60 minutes x 8 hours) = 62.5 GPM
Your 30,000-gallon pool needs 62.5 gallons per minute to circulate the water once every eight hours.
3. Calculate Maximum Flow Rate
This number helps you match the pump with your pool lter. Your pool lter has a maximum ow rate, which
is measured in GPM. The GPM rating of the pump should be less than the GPM rating of the pool lter. If the
pump is rated higher than the lter, the lter is undersized and will not work properly.
The size of your pool pipes determines the maximum ow rate for your system.
Count the number of intake lines for your pool and reference the pipe sizes below:
• For each 1.5-inch intake line, the maximum ow rate is 42 GPM.
• For each 2-inch intake line, the maximum ow rate is 73 GPM.
Example: Two 1.5-inch intake lines = 84. The maximum ow rate is 84 GPM.
4. Calculate Resistance
Every piece of equipment in the pump system creates resistance to water ow. Pipe length and size, type of
lter, heaters and pool cleaners all add to this resistance.
The easiest way to nd resistance is to use a pressure meter and these formulas:
• Check the pressure of water owing into the lter tank and multiply that number by 2.31.
• Check the vacuum reading on the pump suction line and multiply that by 1.13.
• Add the two numbers together to nd is the resistance, or total dynamic head.
Example: If the water owing into the lter tank is 15 PSI, and the vacuum reading on the pump suction line
is 6 PSI:
Water ow into lter tank: 15 PSI x 2.31 = 34.65
Vacuum reading on pump suction line: 6 PSI x 1.13 = 6.78
Total = 41.43 ft. of resistance or TDH
Use the chart below to determine expected gallons per minute for your installation.

NOTE – No system should allow any higher than 8-ft/sec (2.44 meters/sec) water velocity. It is recommended
that a minimum length of piping, equivalent to 10 pipe diameters, be used between the pump suction inlet and
any plumbing ttings.
PLUMBING
Use Teon tape to seal threaded connections on molded plastic components. All plastic ttings must be new
or thoroughly cleaned before use. NOTE - Do NOT use Plumber’s Pipe Dope as it may cause cracking
of the plastic components. When applying Teon tape to plastic threads, wrap the entire threaded portion
of the male tting with one to two layers of tape. Wind the tape clockwise as you face the open end of the
tting, beginning at the end of the tting. The pump suction and outlet ports have molded-in thread stops. Do
NOT attempt to force hose connector tting past this stop. It is only necessary to tighten ttings enough
to prevent leakage. Tighten tting by hand and then use a tool to engage tting an additional 1-1/2 turns. Use
care when using Teon tape as friction is reduced considerably; do NOT over-tighten tting or you may
cause damage. If leaks occur, remove connector, clean o󰀨 old Teon tape, re-wrap with one to two additional
layers of Teon tape, and re-install connector.
FITTINGS
Fittings restrict ow. For better e󰀩ciency, use the fewest possible ttings (but at least two suction outlets).
Avoid ttings that could cause an air trap. Pool and spa ttings MUST conform to the International Association
of Plumbing and Mechanical O󰀩cials (IAPMO) standards. Use a non-entrapping suction tting in pool (multiple
drains) or double suction (skimmer and main drain).

VOLTAGE
Voltage at motor MUST NOT be more than 10% above or below motor name plate rated voltage, or motor may
overheat, causing overload tripping and reduced component life. If voltage is less than 90% or more than 110%
of rated voltage when motor is running at full load, consult power company.
GROUNDING AND BONDING
• Install, ground, bond, and wire motor in accordance with local or national electrical code requirements.
• Permanently ground motor. Use green ground terminal provided under motor canopy or access place; use
size and type wire required by code. Connect motor ground terminal to electrical service ground.
• Bond motor to pool structure. Bonding will connect all metal parts within and around the pool with a
continuous wire. Bonding reduces the risk of a current passing between bonded metal objects, which could
potentially cause electrical shock if grounded or shorted. Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards
including, but not limited to, grounding, bonding and general wiring procedures.
• Use a solid copper conductor, per code. Run wire from external bonding lug to reinforcing rod or mesh.
Connect per code solid copper bonding wire to the pressure wire connector provided on the motor housing
and to all metal parts of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, and to all electrical equipment, metal piping
(except gas piping), and conduit within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.
CHANGING THE VOLTAGE
• Pump is preset to 230V. If your power source is 115V, open the
back of the motor housing. Use pliers to switch plugs following the
steps to the right in order to match the 115V diagram below.
• While set for 230V the brown wire may still have current. It must
stay grounded in position 6 to avoid touching other contacts.

WIRING
A licensed electrician must do all wiring.
Pump MUST be permanently connected to circuit. If other lights or appliances are also on the same circuit, be
sure to add their amp loads before calculating wire and circuit breaker sizes. Use the load circuit breaker as
the Master On-O󰀨 switch.
Install a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) in circuit; it will sense a short-circuit to ground and disconnect
power before it becomes dangerous to pool users. For size of GFCI required and test procedures for GFCI,
see manufacturer’s instructions. Pump MUST be permanently connected to GFCI. In case of a power outage,
check GFCI for tripping, which will prevent normal pump operation. Reset if necessary.
All suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN, as well as lter air relief valve (if
available) on lter, when starting the circulating pump system. Failure to do so could result
in severe personal injury.
STARTING/PRIMING THE PUMP:
Pumps with single speed motors are self priming to 10 ft. and pumps with 2 speed motors are self priming to
10 ft. on high speed only. Fill strainer housing with water to suction pipe level. If water leakage occurs from
anywhere on the pump or lter, DO NOT start the pump. If no leakage occurs, stand at least 10 feet from pump
and/or lter and proceed with starting the pump.
Return to lter to close lter manual air relief valve when a steady stream of water (not air
or air and water) is discharged from valve. Failure to do so could result in severe personal
injury.
NEVER OPERATE THE PUMP WITHOUT WATER. Water acts as a coolant and
lubricant for the mechanical shaft seal. NEVER run pump dry. Running pump dry may
damage seals, causing leakage, ooding, and voids warranty. Fill strainer housing with water before starting
motor.
Do NOT add chemicals to pool/spa system directly in front of pump suction. Adding
undiluted chemicals may damage pump and voids warranty.
Before removing strainer cover:
1. STOP PUMP before proceeding.
2. CLOSE VALVES in suction and outlet pipes.
3. RELEASE ALL PRESSURE from pump and piping system using lter manual air relief valve. See lter
owner’s manual for more details.
4. If water source is higher than the pump, pump will prime itself when suction and outlet valves are opened.
If water source is lower than the pump, unscrew and remove strainer cover; ll strainer housing with water.
5. Clean and lubricate strainer cover O-ring with silicone lubricant each time it is removed. Inspect O-ring and
re-install on strainer cover.
6. Replace strainer cover on strainer housing; turn strainer cover clockwise to tighten cover.
Before re-starting pump, see “Starting/Priming the Pump” instructions.
Wait ve (5) seconds before re-starting pump. Failure to do so may cause reverse
rotation of motor and consequent serious pump damage.
Turn on power and wait for pump to prime, which may take up to ve (5) minutes. Priming time will depend on
vertical length of suction lift and horizontal length of suction pipe. If pump does NOT prime within ve minutes,
stop motor and determine cause. Be sure all suction and discharge valves are open when pump is running.
See Troubleshooting Guide.

MAINTENANCE
• Clean strainer basket regularly. Do NOT strike basket to clean. Inspect strainer cover gasket regularly and
replace as necessary.
• Pump has self-lubricating motor bearings and shaft seals. No lubrication is necessary.
• Keep motor clean. Ensure air vents are free from obstruction to avoid damage. Do NOT use water to hose
o󰀨 motor.
• Occasionally, shaft seals must be replaced, due to wear or damage.
Separation Hazard. Do not purge the system with compressed air. Purging the system
with compressed air can cause components to explode, with risk of severe injury or death
to anyone nearby. Use only a low pressure (below 5 PSI), high volume blower when air purging the pump,
lter, or piping.
Allowing the pump to freeze will void the warranty.
Use ONLY propylene glycol as antifreeze in your pool/spa system. Propylene glycol is
non-toxic and will not damage plastic system components. Other anti-freezes are highly
toxic and may damage plastic components in the system.
Drain all water from pump and piping when expecting freezing temperatures or when storing pump for a long
time (see instructions below).
Keep motor dry and covered during storage. To avoid condensation/corrosion problems, do NOT cover or wrap
pump with plastic lm or bags.
STORING PUMP FOR WINTERIZATION
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock hazard, turn OFF power to
motor before draining pump. Failure to disconnect power may result in
serious personal injury or death.
1. Drain water level below all inlets to the pool.
2. Remove drain plugs from bottom of strainer body, and remove strainer cover from
strainer housing.
3. Disconnect pump from mounting pad, wiring system (after power has been turned OFF),
and piping system.

PROBLEM CHECK FOR: SOLUTION
A. Motor Will NOT
Start
Improper or loose wiring connections;
open switches or relays; tripped circuit
breakers, GFCI’s, or blown fuses.
Check all connections, circuit breakers,
and fuses. Reset tripped breakers or
replace blown fuses
Check rotation of motor shaft Remove any obstructions.
Properly working timer. Bypass timer if necessary.
B. Motor Shuts OFF
Low voltage at motor or power drop
(frequently caused by undersized wiring
or extension cord use.)
Contact qualied professional to check
that the wiring gauge is heavy enough.
**NOTE: Your motor is equipped with an “automatic thermal overload protector.” The motor will automatically
shut o󰀨 if power supply drops before heat damage can build up causing windings to burn out. The “thermal
overload protector” will allow the motor to automatically restart once the motor has cooled. It will continue to
cut On/O󰀨 until the problem is corrected. Be sure to correct cause of overheating.
C. Motor Hums, But
Does NOT Start
Impeller jammed with debris. Have a qualied repair professional open
the pump and remove the debris.
D. Pump Won’t Prime
Empty pump/strainer housing. Make sure pump/strainer housing is lled
with water and cover O-Ring is clean.
Ensure O-Ring is properly seated in the
cover O-Ring groove. Ensure O-Ring
is lubricated and that strainer cover is
locked rmly in position.
Loose connections on suction side. Tighten pipe/union connections.
Leaking O-Ring or packing glands on
valves. Strainer basket or skimmer
loaded with debris.
Remove strainer housing cover or
skimmer cover, clean basket, and rell
strainer housing with water. Tighten
cover.
Suction side clogged. Contact a qualied repair professional.
Block o󰀨 to determine if pump will develop a vacuum. You should have 5”-6” of vacuum at the strainer cover
(Only your pool dealer can conrm this with a vacuum gauge). You may be able to check by removing
the skimmer basket and holding your hand over the bottom port with skimmer full and pump running. If no
suction is felt, check for line blockage.
a. If pump develops a vacuum, check for blocked suction line or dirty strainer basket. An air leak in the
suction piping may be the cause.
b. If pump does not develop a vacuum and pump has su󰀩cient “priming water”:
i. Re-check strainer housing cover and all threaded connections for suction leaks. Check if all
system hose clamps are tight.
ii. Check voltage to ensure that the motor is rotating at full RPM’s.
iii. Open housing cover and check for clogging or obstruction in suction. Check impeller for debris.
iv. Remove and replace shaft seal only if it is leaking.

F. Noisy Pump
1. Air leak in suction piping, cavitations
caused by restricted or undersized
suction line or leak at any joint, low
water level in pool, and unrestricted
discharge return lines.
1. Correct suction condition or throttle return
lines, if practical. Holding hand over tting
will sometimes prove this point or putting
in a smaller eyeball tting.
2. Vibration due to improper mounting, etc. 2. Replace mounting.
3. Foreign matter in pump housing. Loose
stones/debris hitting impeller could be
cause.
3. Clean the pump housing.
4. Motor bearings noisy from normal wear,
rust, overheating, or concentration of
chemicals causing seal damage which
will allow chlorinated water to seep into
bearings wiping out the grease causing
bearing to whine.
4. All seal leaks should be replaced at once.

PELIGRO DE ATRAPAMIENTO POR SUCCIÓN. Las entradas y salidas de succión y/o las tapas
de las salidas de succión que están dañadas, rotas, agrietadas, faltantes o no aseguradas pueden
provocar lesiones graves y/o muerte debido a los siguientes peligros de atrapamiento:
• Atrapamiento de cabello: el cabello se puede enredar en la tapa de la salida de succión.
• Atrapamiento de extremidades: una extremidad atrapada en la salida de succión de un sumidero o en la tapa
de salida de succión que está dañada, rota, agrietada, faltante o no asegurada puede resultar en un atrapamiento
mecánico o hinchazón de la extremidad.
• Atrapamiento por succión del cuerpo: una presión negativa aplicada a una gran parte del cuerpo o de las
extremidades puede resultar en un atrapamiento.
• Evisceración/destripamiento: una presión negativa aplicada directamente en la zona de los intestinos a través de
la salida de succión de un sumidero o de la tapa de salida de succión que está dañada, rota, agrietada, faltante o no
asegurada puede resultar en evisceración/destripamiento.
• Atrapamiento mecánico: existe un riesgo potencial debido a joyas, trajes de baño, accesorios de cabello, dedos
de las manos, dedos de los pies o nudillos que puedan quedar atrapados en la abertura de una tapa de salida de
succión, lo que resultaría en un atrapamiento mecánico.

Para reducir el riesgo de peligros de atrapamiento:
• Cuando las salidas sean lo sucientemente pequeñas como para ser bloqueadas por una persona, se debe instalar
un mínimo de dos salidas de succión funcionales por cada bomba. Las salidas de succión en el mismo plano (es
decir, en el piso o en la pared), se deben instalar a un mínimo de 1 m (3’) de distancia entre sí, medido de un punto
cercano al otro.
• Los conectores de doble succión se deben colocar en lugares y distancias tales para evitar el “doble bloqueo” por
parte de un usuario.
• Los conectores de doble succión no se deben colocar en áreas de asiento o en el respaldo de dichas áreas de
asiento.
• La velocidad de ujo máxima del sistema no debe exceder la clasicación nominal de ujo que gura en el Cuadro 1.
• No utilice nunca una piscina o un spa si el componente de la salida de succión está dañado, roto, agrietado, faltante
o no está bien asegurado.
• Reemplace los componentes de la salida de succión que están dañados, rotos, agrietados, faltantes o no están bien
asegurados de inmediato.
• Instale dos o más salidas de succión por bomba de acuerdo a las últimas normas ASME y APSP y a las pautas de
CPSC. Siga todos los códigos estatales, locales y nacionales aplicables.
• Se recomienda la instalación de un sistema de liberación de vacío o de ventilación, que alivie la succión de
atrapamiento.
!
No quitar los tapones de prueba de presión y/o los tapones utilizados para la hibernación de la
piscina/spa de las salidas de succión puede aumentar el potencial de atrapamiento por succión
como se describe anteriormente.
!
No mantener los componentes de la salida de succión libres de desechos, como hojas, suciedad,
pelos, papel y otros materiales puede aumentar el potencial de atrapamiento por succión como se
describe anteriormente.
!
Los componentes de la salida de succión tienen una vida limitada. La tapa/rejilla se debe
inspeccionar con frecuencia y reemplazar al menos cada diez años o si se encuentra dañada,
rota, agrietada, faltante o mal asegurada.
Los componentes como el sistema de ltración, las bombas y el calentador deben colocarse de
manera tal que evite que los niños pequeños los utilicen como medio de acceso a la piscina.
!
Nunca opere o pruebe el sistema de circulación a más de 345 kPa (50 PSI).
!
Nunca cambie la posición de la válvula de control del ltro mientras la bomba está en
funcionamiento.
!
Para reducir el riesgo de lesión, no permita que los niños utilicen o se suban a este producto.
Supervise a los niños de cerca en todo momento.
!
Presión peligrosa. Los sistemas de circulación de agua de las piscinas y spas operan bajo
presiones peligrosas durante el arranque, el funcionamiento normal y luego de apagar la bomba.
Manténgase alejado del equipo del sistema de circulación durante el arranque de la bomba. No
seguir las instrucciones de seguridad y operación puede provocar la separación violenta de la carcasa y la tapa de la
bomba, y/o la carcasa del ltro y la abrazadera debido a la presión en el sistema, lo que podría provocar daños
materiales, lesiones personales graves o muerte. Antes de realizar el mantenimiento al sistema de circulación de agua de
la piscina y spa, todos los controles del sistema y de la bomba deben estar en posición de apagado, y la válvula de
descarga de aire manual del ltro debe estar en posición abierta. Antes de poner en marcha el sistema de bomba, todas
las válvulas del sistema deben estar en una posición que permita que el agua del sistema regrese a la piscina. No cambie
la posición de la válvula de control del ltro mientras el sistema de bomba está en funcionamiento. Antes de poner en
marcha el sistema de bomba, abra por completo la válvula de descarga de aire manual del ltro. No cierre la válvula de
descarga de aire manual del ltro hasta que se descargue un chorro de agua constante (no de aire o de aire y agua).
!
Riesgo de separación. No seguir las instrucciones de seguridad y operación puede provocar una
separación violenta de los componentes de la bomba y/o del ltro. La tapa del ltro debe estar
asegurada como es debido a la carcasa de la bomba con el anillo de bloqueo de la tapa del ltro.
Antes de realizar el mantenimiento al sistema de circulación de la piscina y spa, la válvula de descarga de aire manual
del ltro debe estar en posición abierta. No opere el sistema de circulación de la piscina y spa si un componente del
sistema no está ensamblado correctamente, está dañado o faltante. No opere el sistema de circulación de la piscina y
spa a menos que el cuerpo de la válvula de descarga de aire manual del ltro esté en posición de bloqueo en la parte
superior del cuerpo del ltro.

Riesgo de descarga eléctrica. Todo el cableado eléctrico DEBE hacerse de conformidad con los
códigos y regulaciones nacionales aplicables, y el Código Eléctrico Nacional (NEC). El voltaje
peligroso puede provocar descargas, quemaduras, la muerte o daños materiales graves. Para
reducir el riesgo de descarga eléctrica, NO utilice un cable de extensión para conectar la unidad al suministro eléctrico.
Utilice un receptáculo eléctrico bien ubicado. Antes de trabajar con cualquier equipo eléctrico, apague la fuente de
alimentación del equipo.
!
Para reducir el riesgo de descarga eléctrica, reemplace los cables dañados de inmediato. Ubique
el conducto para evitar el contacto con cortadoras de césped, cortadoras de setos y otros equipos.
!
Conecte todos los equipos a tierra antes de conectarlos a una fuente de alimentación eléctrica. No
conectar todos los equipos a tierra puede causar una descarga eléctrica grave o mortal.
!
No conecte a tierra en una línea de suministro de gas.
!
Para evitar descargas eléctricas peligrosas o mortales, APAGUE todos los equipos eléctricos antes
de trabajar en conexiones eléctricas.
!
No empalmar todos los equipos eléctricos a la estructura de la piscina aumentará el riesgo de
electrocución y podría resultar en lesiones o muerte. Para reducir el riesgo de descarga eléctrica,
mire las instrucciones de instalación y consulte a un electricista profesional para saber cómo
empalmar todos los equipos eléctricos. Además, contacte a un electricista certicado para obtener información sobre los
códigos eléctricos locales y ver los requisitos de empalmes. Notas para el electricista: Use un conductor de cobre sólido,
tamaño 8 o más grande. Instale un cable continuo desde el terminal conector externo hasta la varilla o malla de refuerzo.
Conecte un cable de empalme de cobre sólido N.° 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) [N.° 6 AWG (13.3 mm2) para Canadá] al conector
del cable de presión provisto en el equipo eléctrico y a todas las partes metálicas de la piscina, spa o jacuzzi, y a las
tuberías metálicas (excepto las tuberías de gas), y a los conductos que se encuentran a menos de 1.5 m (5’) de las
paredes interiores de la piscina, spa o jacuzzi.
Consulte los códigos NEC para ver todas las normas de cableado incluyendo, entre otros,
procedimientos de puesta a tierra, empalmes y otros procedimientos generales de cableado.
!
Riesgo de descarga eléctrica. Conecte solamente un circuito protegido por un interruptor de
circuito con protección de falla a tierra (GFCI). Contacte a un electricista calicado si no puede
vericar que el circuito esté protegido por un GFCI.
!
Riesgo de descarga eléctrica. El equipo eléctrico debe estar conectado solamente a un circuito
de alimentación que esté protegido por un interruptor de circuito con protección de falla a tierra
(GFCI). El instalador debe proporcionar ese GFCI y se debe probar de manera rutinaria. Para
probar el GFCI, presione el botón de prueba. El GFCI debería interrumpir la energía. Presione el botón de reinicio. La
energía debe ser restaurada. Si el GFCI no funciona de esta manera, está defectuoso. Si el GFCI corta la energía del
equipo eléctrico sin que se presione el botón de prueba, es porque hay una corriente de tierra, lo que indica la posibilidad
de una descarga eléctrica. No utilice este equipo eléctrico. Desconecte el equipo eléctrico y haga que un representante
de servicio técnico calicado corrija el problema antes de utilizarlo.
Esta bomba está diseñada para uso con piscinas de instalación permanente y se puede utilizar
con jacuzzis y spas, si así se indica. No usar con piscinas almacenables. Una piscina de
instalación permanente está construida sobre o dentro del piso o en un edicio de manera tal que
no se puede desarmar para guardarla. Una piscina almacenable está construida de manera tal que se puede desarmar
para guardar y se puede volver a armar en forma original.
