CAUTION:
Water acts as a coolant for the seal. Do not operate your pump until it has been
filled with water (primed).
IMPORTANT: This filter is a diatomaceous earth (D.E.) type filter and requires D.E. in order to
operate. DO NOT OPERATE FILTER WITHOUT D.E.
Step 1
Open the air bleed valve on top of the filter to
allow captured air to escape. When a steady
stream of water appears, close valve.
NOTE: If optional shut-off valves are installed
be sure that both valves are fully opened.
Step 2
Mix diatomaceous earth in a bucket of water.
See Chart for appropriate amounts. The D.E.
scoop this is supplied with your system
should be used for measuring. Set bucket of
D.E. mixture aside.
Step 3
Turn the motor on by plugging the unit into a
grounded electrical receptacle.
