NOTES :
- In order to work efficiently the priming button
must be pushed all of the way down in fast
sequence; otherwise the prime may not occur.
- If the installation necessitates slack or dips in the
hoses, it may be necessary to use the priming
button repeatedly.
- Warning: the priming system works even if the
filter canister gasket or the chemical cartridge
assembly is missing. Therefore, before
priming the unit, check that filter canister
gasket and chemical cartridge assembly are in
place.
Q: The pre-filter lid doesn’t close.
A: Check that pre-filter handles are properly aligned
in the “ ” position
Q: I can’t insert the AQUASTOP valve into the
filter top.
A:
1. AQUASTOP orientation is wrong, indicator
arrows do not face front.
2. The AQUASTOP release lever has and/or
AQUASTOP valve lever have not been lifted to a
full upright position before inserting the
AQUASTOP.
Q: I can’t remove the AQUASTOP.
A: The AQUASTOP release lever hasn’t been lifted.
Q: I have turned the lock nuts of the AQUASTOP
or the Cross Rim assemblies so much that
they have fully come off.
A: Replace the lock nuts by turning them clockwise
so they screw back down onto the AQUASTOP
or Rim Connectors.
Q: I’m not able to pull out the mechanical pre-filter
and chemical cartridges.
A:
1. The knob has not been completely turned to the
“ “ position. Be sure to turn the knob fully
counter-clockwise to remove the cartridges.
2. The power has not been removed from the filter
causing suction on the cartridge. Make sure to
remove the power before performing any
maintenance procedures.
Q: I’m not able to close the mechanical pre-filter
and chemical cartridges.
A:
1. The cartridges’ bayonets have not been inserted
in the correct position.
2. The cartridges have been inserted with the
wrong orientation.
3. Water level inside the filter has increased due to
wrong operations, and this hinders cartridge
closing.
4. There is a foreign object inside the filter.
5. The cartridges’ cup got stuck because they have
not been correctly installed. Remove the
cartridges and repeat the operation.
Q: I’m not able to close the four metal lid
fasteners.
A: The filter head is not correctly oriented with
respect to the filter body. Not all four metal lid
fasteners are fully inside their seats. Assure
that all the metal lid fasteners are simultaneously
wide open before proceeding with filter head
closing operation.
Q: I’m not able to disengage the filter head from
the filter canister.
A: Assure that all the four silver metal lid fasteners
are simultaneously wide open.
The presence of foreign objects could have
generated an anomalous friction. Take off the
filter head by simultaneously pulling the appropriate
handles (there could be the need of another person
helping you). After that, proceed with filter gasket
cleaning.
Important: The motor head could get stuck if you
try to remove it by pulling one side only. Remove
the filter head by pulling with both hands on the
proper grip points.
Q: The mechanical cartridge clogs too early.
A: The mechanical cartridge is a high efficiency
by-pass-free filter. For this reason everything that
is captured by the filter remains trapped in it.
The mechanical cartridge has been designed so
