This is the safety-alert symbol. When you see this symbol on your equipment or in this manual, look for one
of the following signal words and be alert to the potential for personal injury or death.
WARNING Warns about hazards that could cause serious personal injury or, death, and or major property
damage and if ignored presents a potential hazard.
CAUTION Warns about hazards that will or can cause minor or moderate personal injury and/or property
damage and if ignored presents a potential hazard. It can also make consumers aware of actions that are
unpredictable and unsafe.
The NOTICE label indicates special instructions that are important but not related to hazards.
READ, UNDERSTAND, AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW SAFETY AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

WARNING – SUCTION ENTRAPMENT HAZARD.
Suction in suction outlets and/or suction outlet covers that are, damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or
unsecured can 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 negative pressure applied to a large portion of the body or limbs can
result in an entrapment.
Evisceration/ Disembowelment Entrapment- A negative pressure applied directly to the intestines
through an unprotected suction outlet sump or suction outlet cover that is, damaged, broken, cracked,
missing, or unsecured can result in evisceration/ disembowelment entrapment.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Vertical Grid D.E. Filter combines superior water filtration with ease of operation and totally corrosion-free
construction. It uses diatomaceous earth (D.E.), which is the most efficient dirt remover and filter medium known.
The D.E., which is usually fed through the skimmer at initial start-up, uniformly coats the filter elements that are
covered with a custom fitted monofilament polypropylene filter cloth. As pool water is pumped through the control
valve into the bottom of the filter tank, the D.E. surface, or coating, filters out even the minutest particles resulting in
clear, clean, sparkling water.
After a period of time, the accumulated dirt in the filter causes a resistance to flow, the pressure rises, and flow
diminishes. This means the dirt holding capacity of the D.E. has been reached, and it is time to clean (backwash)
your filter. With the control valve in the back wash position, the water is automatically reversed through the filter,
flushing trapped dirt, debris and D.E. out the waste line. Once the filter is backwashed (cleaned) of D.E. and dirt,
the control valve is manually re-sequenced to filter position and a fresh charge of D.E. is added to resume normal
filtering.

it from continuous, direct heat from the sun.
4.Assemble appropriate Filter Control valve (not
included) to filter. Lubricate the O-ring first . Align the
two (2) valve pipe connections, with O-rings in place, with
the two openings in the side of the filter tank and press in
firmly. Secure the assembly to the tank connections with
the two bulkhead lock nuts. Do not over-tighten.
5. Connect the pool suction plumbing between the
skimmer, pool outlet and the pump.
9. Verify water discharge from the manual air relief
valve(MAR) is directed away from electrical devices.

OPERATION
WARNING
FILTERING
Filtration starts as soon as the filter has been pre-coated. As the filter removes dirt from the pool water, the
accumulated dirt causes a resistance to flow. As a result, the gauge pressure will rise and the flow will decrease.
When the pressure rises 8-10 psi (.55-.69 bar) above the pre-coat pressure, it is time to backwash (clean) the
filter. Once your filter is running and there is a pressure reading, line up the green arrow with the current reading.
(See Fig 3) When the pressure rises to or above the red or second arrow, it is time to clean your filter.
Note: During initial clean-up of the pool, particularly with a new pool or a very dirty pool, it may be necessary to
backwash more frequently due to the heavy initial dirt load in the water.
