IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
2
To reduce the risk of electric shock replace damaged cord immediately. DO NOT bury cord. Locate cord
to prevent abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers and other equipment.
Risk of Electric Shock. Connect only to a branch circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter
(GFCI). Contact only to a electrician if you cannot verify that the receptacles is protected by a GFCI.
Failure to bond pump 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 pump. Also, contact a licensed electrician for information on local electrical codes for bonding
requirements.
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) 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. (1.5m) of inside walls of swimming
pool, spa, or hot tub.
IMPORTANT - Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not limited to, grounding,
bonding and other general wiring procedures.
NOTE - The National Electrical Code (NEC) permits use of a cord with a maximum 3 ft. (1 m) length. If your
pump is equipped with a cord complying with the NEC
DO NOT install within an outer enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa.
Suction Entrapment Hazard: Suction in suction outlets and/or suction outlet covers, which are
damaged, broken, cracked, missing or unsecured cause severe injury and/or death due to the
following entrapment hazards:
Hair Entrapment- Hair can become entangled in suction outlet cover.
Limb Entrapment- A limb inserted into an opening of a suction outlet sump or suction outlet cover that is
damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached can result in a mechanical bind or swelling
of the limb.
Body Suction Entrapment- A pressure applied to a large portion of the body or limbs can result in an
entrapment.
Evisceration/ Disembowelment- A negative pressure applied directly to the intestines through an
unprotected suction outlet sump or suction outlet cover which is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or
unsecured can result in evisceration/disembowelment.
Mechanical Entrapment- There is potential for jewelry, swimsuits, hair decorations, ngers, toes, or
knuckles to be caught in an opening of a suction outlet cover resulting in mechanical entrapment.
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’) [0.91 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 values shown in the “Pipe Sizing Chart” found at
this manual.
- 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.
- Installation of a vacuum release or vent system, which relieves entrapping suction, is recommended.
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-Off switch.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Hazardous Pressure: Pool and spa water circulation systems operate under hazardous pressure during
start-up, normal operation, and after pump shut-off. 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 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 off 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. All suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN when
starting the circulation system. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury and/or property
damage.
Separation Hazard: Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation of
pump components. Strainer cover must be properly secured to pump housing with strainer cover lock ring.
Before servicing pool and spa circulation system, all system and pump controls must be in off position and
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 air relief valve body is in locked position in lter upper body. All
suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN when starting the circulation system. Failure to do so could
result in severe personal injury and/or property damage. NEVER operate or test the circulation system at
more than 40 PSI.
Fire and Burn Hazard: Motors operate at high temperatures and if they are not properly isolated from
any ammable structures or foreign debris they can cause res, which may cause severe personal injury
or death. It is also necessary to allow the motor to cool for at least 20 minutes prior to maintenance to
minimize the risk for burns.
This product should be installed and serviced only by a qualied professional.
If pump is being pressure tested (40 PSI MAXIMUM), be sure pressure has been released, using the lter
manual air relief valve, before removing strainer cover.
NEVER run pump dry. Running pump dry may damage seals, causing leakage, ooding, and voids
warranty. Fill strainer housing with water before starting motor.
Match supply voltage to motor nameplate voltage. Insure that the electrical supply available agrees with
the motor’s voltage, phase, and cycle, and that the wire size is adequate for the (KW) rating and distance
from the power source.
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.
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.
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.
Fittings restrict ow. For better ef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 Ofcials (IAPMO) standards. Use a non-entrapping suction tting
in pool (multiple drains) or double suction (skimmer and main drain).

INSTALLATION
13
PUMP LOCATION
Installing union connections at the suction and outlet ports is recommended, to facilitate servicing of pump
and to allow for indoor storage during the winter months.
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 ½ 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 off old Teon tape, re-wrap with one to two additional layers of Teon tape, and
re-install connector.
Fittings restrict ow. For better ef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 Ofcials (IAPMO) standards. Use a non-entrapping suction
tting in pool (multiple drains) or double suction (skimmer and main drain).
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 aspossible.
• 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.
NOTE: 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.
Fasten pump to base or pad with screws or bolts to reduce vibration and stress on pipe or hose joints.
We recommend a minimum clearance around the pad of 18 to allow adequate access for servicing
pump and piping.

INSTALLATION
14
Ensure that the electrical supply available agrees with the motor’s voltage, phase, and cycle, and that the
wire size is adequate for the (KW) rating and distance from the power source. NOTE - All electrical wiring
MUST be performed by a licensed electrician, and MUST conform to local codes and NEC regulations. Use
copper conductors only.

INSTALLATION
15
Risk of Electric Shock. All electrical wiring MUST be in conformance with applicable local codes, regulations,
and the National Electric Code (NEC). All electrical wiring should be performed by a qualied professional.
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 off power supply to the equipment. To
reduce the risk of electric shock replace damaged wiring immediately. DO NOT ground to a gas supply line.
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.
Insure that the electrical supply available agrees with the motor’s voltage, phase, and cycle, and that the
wire size is adequate for the KW rating and distance from the power source.
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.
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.
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-Off 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. In case of a power outage, check GFCI for tripping, which will
prevent normal pump operation. Reset if necessary.
NOTE: If you do not use conduit when wiring motor, be sure to seal wire opening on end of motor to
prevent dirt, bugs, etc., from entering.

OPERATION

PRIOR TO START-UP
NOTE: It is necessary to perform a pressure test prior to initial use to ensure pump is functioning properly.
The following criteria should be maintained for this test:
1. Have a professional perform this test.
2. Ensure all pump and system components are sealed properly to prevent leaks.
3. Remove any trapped air in the system by fully opening lter manual air relief valve until a steady stream
of water is discharged.
4. Allow no more than 40 psi (276 kPa) at a water temperature no higher than 100° F (38° C).
5. Run pressure test for no longer than 24 hours. Immediately inspect all parts to verify they are intact and
Fill strainer housing with water to suction pipe level. 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.
WARNING: If pump is being pressure tested (40 PSI MAXIMUM), be sure pressure has been released,
using the lter manual air relief valve, before removing strainer cover.
PRIMING THE PUMP
CAUTION: 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.
• Release all pressure from lter, pump, and piping system. See lter owner’s manual.
• 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.
• Clean and lubricate strainer cover O-ring with “Jack’s 327” each time it is removed. Inspect O-ring and
• re-install on strainer cover.
• Replace strainer cover on strainer housing; turn clockwise to tighten cover.
NOTE: Tighten strainer cover by hand only (no wrenches).
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.
NOTE: Wait ve (5) seconds before re-starting pump. Failure to do so may cause reverse rotation of motor
and consequent serious pump damage. Close lter manual air relief valve after pump is primed.

3. Rell pool to proper water level.
4. Prime pump according to instructions.
START-UP FOR WINTERIZED EQUIPMENT
SHAFT SEAL CHANGE INSTRUCTIONS
Only qualied personnel should attempt rotary seal replacement. Risk of Electric Shock Failure to turn
off power can cause serious or fatal electrical shock hazard. Disconnect all electrical power service to pump
before beginning shaft seal replacement.
Exercise extreme care in handling both the rotating and the stationary sections of the two-part replacement
seal. Foreign matter or improper handling will easily scratch the graphite and ceramic sealing surfaces.
Clean strainer basket regularly. DO NOT strike basket to clean. Inspect strainer cover gasket regularly and
replace as necessary.
Pumps have self-lubricating motor bearings and shaft seals. No lubrication is necessary.
Keep motor clean. Insure air vents are free from obstruction to avoid damage. DO NOT use water to hose
off motor.
Occasionally, shaft seals must be replaced, due to wear or damage. Replace with genuine Hayward seal
assembly kit.
MAINTENANCE
EXPLOSION HAZARD: 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.
DO NOT use anti-freeze solutions (except propylene glycol) 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. Gravity drain system as far as possible.

TROUBLESHOOTING
ALERTS AND WARNINGS
The Variable Speed Pump displays all alarms and warnings on the control panel display.
When an alarm or warning condition exists, the corresponding light will be lit on the display.
All control panel buttons are disabled until the alarm or warning is acknowledged with the
Reset button. Pressing the Reset button will clear the alarm once the fault condition has
been resolved.
NOTE: The pump will not start if the impeller is rotating.
POWER OUT/OFF
The incoming supply voltage is less than 170 VAC. The drive faults to protect itself from
over current. The drive contains capacitors that keep it powered up long enough to save the
current run parameters. If power is restored during this process, approximately 20 seconds,
the drive will not restart until completed.
OVERHEAT
If the drive temperature gets above 54.4° C (130° F) the pump will slowly reduce speed until
the over temperature condition clears.
OVER CURRENT
Indicated that the drive is overloaded or the motor has an electrical problem. The drive will
restart 20 seconds after the over current condition clears.
OVER VOLTAGE
Indicates excessive supply voltage or an external water source is causing the pump and
motor to rotate thereby generating an excessive voltage on the drives internal DC buss. The
drive will restart 20 seconds after the over voltage condition clears.
INTERNAL ERROR
Indicates that the self-monitoring motor control software has encountered an error. Clear the
alarm and restart the pump.
