FILTER PUMP STATIONARY MOUNTING OPTION
Some countries, especially in the European community, require the filter-pump to be secured to the
ground or to a base in a permanent upright position. Check your local authorities to determine if there
is a regulation in your area regarding above-the-ground swimming pool filter-pumps. If yes, then the
filter-pump can be mounted to a platform using the two holes located in the base. See drawing below.
The filter-pump can be mounted on a cement base or onto a wooden platform to prevent accidental
falling over. Total assembly must exceed 18kg.
130 mm
1
. The mounting holes are 6.4mm in diameter and spaced 130mm apart.
2
. Use two bolts and lock nuts with a maximum of 6.4mm in diameter.

POOL CARE AND CHEMICALS
• All pools require care to keep the water clear and hygienically clean. With proper chemical
control, your filter will help attain this objective. Consult your pool supply dealer for instructions
regarding the proper use of chlorine, algaecide and other chemical agents required for
sparkling clear water.
• Keep pool chemicals away from children.
• Do not replenish chemicals in pool while pool is occupied. Skin or eye irritations could occur.
• Daily pH checking and chemical treatment of the water is very important and can not be
overemphasized. Chlorine, algaecide and maintenance of proper pH levels are required when
filling the pool as well as during the season. Consult your local swimming pool supply store for
instructions.
• The season's first filling of the pool may have brackish water requiring extra water additives and
extra filter changes. Do not allow swimming in pool until the pH level is balanced. Consult your
local swimming pool supply store for instructions.
• Keep spare filter cartridges on hand. Replace cartridges every two weeks.
• Chlorinated water may damage lawns, gardens or shrubbery as children play in the pool and
splash water outside the pool. Lawn areas underneath the pool liner will be destroyed. Note
that some types of grass may grow through the liner.
• Filter run time depends on pool size, weather and usage level. Experiment with various run
times so as to produce clean clear water.
CAUTION
Concentrated chlorine solutions may damage the pool liner. Always follow
the chemical manufacturer’s directions, and the health and hazard warnings.
1
. Before emptying your pool for long term storage, or relocation, be sure the water is directed
towards an acceptable drain water receptacle away from the house. Check local regulations for
specific directions regarding disposal of swimming pool water.
2
. Disconnect power cord from electrical outlet.
3
. Now, drain the pool.
4
. When the pool is empty, disconnect all hoses from pump and plunger valves and remove the
strainers from the pool wall.
5
. Drain all water from the filter pump.
6
. Leave filter pump pieces & hoses outside to thoroughly air dry.
7
. Remove both plunger valves from the threaded strainer connector
(13)
. Be careful not to lose
the step rubber washer
(10)
.
8
. Coat the following O-rings and washers with petroleum jelly for long term storage:
• Air release valve & sediment O-rings
(3)
.
• Filter housing cover O-ring
(5)
.
• Pump hose O-rings
(9)
.
• Strainer valve assembly step washers
(10)
.
• Flat strainer rubber washers
(12)
.
9
. Discard the used filter cartridge. Put aside 1 or 2 new cartridges for next season’s use.
10
. It is best to place all dry pieces in the original packaging for storage or place them in an airtight
plastic bag.
11
. Store the unit and accessories in a dry place. The storage's temperature should be controlled,
between 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees
Celsius) storage location.
