Basic safety precautions should always be followed, inclu

ding the following: Failure to follow instructions

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

can cause severe injury and/or death.

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.

WARNING warns about hazards that could cause serious personal injury, death 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.

WARNING - Read and follow all instructions in this owner’s manual and on the equipment. Failure to

follow instructions can cause severe injury and/or death.

WARNING – Suction Entrapment Hazard.

Suction in suction outlets and/or suction outlet covers which 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 - 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, swimsuit, hair decorations, finger, toe or knuckle to be caught in an

opening of a suction outlet cover resulting in mechanical entrapment.

WARNING - To Reduce the risk of Entrapment Hazards:

o 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. floor or wall), must be installed a minimum of three feet (3’) [1 meter]

apart, as measured from near point to near point.
o Dual suction fittings shall be placed in such locations and distances to avoid “dual blockage” by a user.
o Dual suction fittings shall not be located on seating areas or on the backrest for such seating areas.
o The maximum system flow rate shall not exceed the flow rating of as listed on Table 1.
o Never use Pool or Spa if any suction outlet component is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached.
o Replace damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached suction outlet components immediately.
o In addition two or more suction outlets per pump installed in accordance with latest ASME, APSP Standards and CPSC

guidelines, follow all National, State, and Local codes applicable.
o Installation of a vacuum release or vent system, which relieves entrapping suction, is recommended.

WARNING – 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.

WARNING – Failure to keep suction outlet components clear of debris, such as leaves, dirt, hair, paper and other

material can result in an increase potential for suction entrapment as described above.

WARNING – Suction outlet components have a finite 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.

CAUTION – Components such as the filtration system, pumps and heater must be positioned so as to prevent their

being used as means of access to the pool by young children. To reduce risk of injury, do not permit children to use or
climb on this product. Closely supervise children at all times. Components such as the filtration system, pumps, and
heaters must be positioned to prevent children from using them as a means of access to the pool.

WARNING – 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, and/or filter 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 off position and filter 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 filter control valve position while system pump is running. Before starting system pump, fully
open filter manual air relief valve. Do not close filter manual air relief valve until a steady stream of water (not air or air and water)
is discharged.

WARNING – Separation Hazard. Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation

of pump and/or filter components. Strainer cover must be properly secured to pump housing with strainer cover lock ring. Before
servicing pool and spa circulation system, filters 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 filter manual air relief valve body is in locked position in filter upper body. Never operate or test the
circulation system at more than 50 PSI. 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, filter, or piping.

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 Shock Failure 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 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.
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.
