SECTION I. INSTALLATION

Notice to Installer

When pump is mounted permanently within 5 ft. of the inside walls of a swimming pool, you must use a No. 8
AWG or larger conductor to connect to bonding conductor lug.



WARNING

Risk of electrical shock or electrocution.

This pool pump must be installed by a licensed or certified electrician or a qualified pool serviceman in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances. Improper
installation will create an electrical hazard which could result in death or serious injury to pool users,
installers, or others due to electrical shock, and may also cause damage to property.

Always disconnect power to the pool pump at the circuit breaker before servicing the pump. Failure to do
so could result in death or serious injury to serviceman, pool users or others due to electric shock.



WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.



CAUTION

This pump is for use with permanently installed pools and may also be used with hot tubs and 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 may be readily disassembled for
storage and reassembled to its original integrity and has a maximum dimension of 18 feet (5.49m) and a maximum wall
height of 42 inches (1.07m).



CAUTION

For hot tubs and spa pumps, do not install within an outer enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa unless so
marked.

SECTION II. OPERATION & MAINTENANCE

A. The Pump Strainer

This unit, sometimes referred to as the “Hair and Lint Pot”, is the unit in front of the pump volute (6-1/2" in
diameter). The lid screws directly into the pot and should be hand tightened only. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Inside the chamber is the basket. This basket must be kept clean of leaves at all times. View basket through “See
Through Lid” to inspect for leaves and debris.



CAUTION

To prevent damage to the pump and filter and for proper operation of the system, clean pump strainer and skimmer
baskets regularly.

NOTE

It is important that the lid 0-ring be kept clean and well lubricated. We recommend a silicone-base lubricant for best results.
