WARNING– 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 off power supply to the equipment. To reduce the risk of
electric shock replace damaged wiring immediately. Locate conduit to prevent abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers and
other equipment. Do NOT ground to a gas supply line.
WARNING– Risk of Electric ShockFailure to ground all electrical equipment can cause serious or fatal electrical shock
hazard. Electrical ground all electrical equipment before connecting to electrical power supply.
WARNING – Risk of Electric Shock 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 mm
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.
IMPORTANT - Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not limited to, grounding, bonding and other general
wiring procedures.

WARNING – 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 flowing, indicating the possibility of an electrical shock. Do not use this electrical
equipment. Disconnect the electrical equipment and have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before
using.
CAUTION – HAYWARD
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.

pumps are intended for use with permanently-installed pools and may be used with hot tubs and
WARNING – Risk of Hyperthermia. To avoid hyperthermia the following “Safety Rules for Hot Tubs” are recommended by
the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never exceed 104°F [40°C]. A temperature of 100°F [38°C] is
considered safe for a healthy adult. Special caution is suggested for young children. Prolonged immersion in
hot water can induce hyperthermia.
2. Drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during spa or hot tub use can cause drowsiness, which
could lead to unconsciousness and subsequently result in drowning.
3. Pregnant women beware! Soaking in water above 100°F [38°C] can cause fetal damage during the
first three months of pregnancy (resulting in the birth of a brain-damaged or deformed child). Pregnant women
should adhere to the 100°F [38°C] maximum rule.
4. Before entering the spa or hot tub, users should check the water temperature with an accurate thermometer; spa or hot tub thermostats may err in regulating water temperatures by as much as 4°F (2.2°C).
5. Persons taking medications, which induce drowsiness, such as tranquilizers, antihistamines or anticoagulants, should not use spas or hot tubs.
6. If the pool/spa is used for therapy, it should be done with the advice of a physician. Always stir pool/ spa
water before entering the pool/spa to mix in any hot surface layer of water that might exceed healthful
temperature limits and cause injury. Do not tamper with controls, because scalding can result if safety controls
are not in proper working order.
7. Persons with a medical history of heart disease, circulatory problems, diabetes or blood pressure
problems should obtain a physicians’ advice before using spas or hot tubs.
8. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above
normal body temperature of 98.6°F [37°C]. The symptoms of Hyperthermia include: drowsiness, lethargy,
dizziness, fainting, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body.
The effects of Hyperthermia include:
1. Unawareness of impending danger.
2. Failure to perceive heat.
3. Failure to recognize the need to leave the spa.
4. Physical inability to exit the spa.
5. Fetal damage in pregnant women.
6. Unconsciousness resulting in danger of drowning.

2.3. Product Dimensions
3. Installation and Wiring
WARNING – This product should be installed and serviced only by a qualified professional.
3.1. Pump Location
WARNING – Fire and burn hazard. Motors operate at high temperatures and if they are not
properly isolated from any flammable structures or foreign debris they can cause fires, 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.
Locate pump as close to pool as practical and run suction lines as direct as possible to reduce friction loss. Pump
height location should be as close to pool water level as possible and NOT to exceed 8 feet. Suction lines should
have continuous slope upward from lowest point in line. Joints must be tight (but not over-tightened). Suction line
diameter must equal or be larger than the discharge line diameter.
Though the pump is designed for outdoor use, it is advised to place pump and filter in the shade
to shield them from continuous direct heat. Select a well-drained area that will not flood when it
rains. Do NOT install pump and filter in a damp or non-ventilated location. Keep motor clean.
Pump motors require free circulation of air for cooling.
