CHAPTER One: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTUCTIONS
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTION
WARNING Pay attention to children
1. 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.
2. 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 is capable of being readily disassembled for storage
and reassembled to its original integrity. These pump models are intended for use with permanent pools only – Do not
use with inflatable pools.
3. Though this product is designed for outdoor use, it is strongly advised to protect the electrical components from the
weather. Select a well-drained area, one that will not flood when it rains. It requires free circulation of air for cooling.
Do not install in a damp or non-ventilated location.
4. Pool components have a finite life. All components should be inspected frequently and replaced at least every five
years, or if found to be damaged, broken, cracked, missing or not securely attached.
WARNING Risk of Electric Shock.
5. Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or cause death. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT use an extension
cord to connect unit to electric supply. Provide a properly located outlet. It is required that licensed electricians do all
electrical wiring.
6. All electrical wiring MUST be in conformance with applicable local and national codes and regulations. Before
working on pump or motor, disconnect motor wiring.
7. Risk of Electric Shock. Connect only to a branch circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI).
Contact an electrician if you cannot verify that the receptacle is protected by a GFCI.
CONNECT ONLY TO GROUNDING TYPE RECEPTACLE PROTECTED BY A CLASS A GROUND FAULT
CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER.
8. Failure to bond pump 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
pump.
Also, contact a licensed electrician for information on local electrical codes for bonding requirements.
9. 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) solid copper bonding wire to the pressure wire connector provided on the motor
housing and to all metal parts of swimming pool and to all electrical equipment, metal piping (except gas piping), and
conduit within 5 ft. (1.5m) of inside walls of swimming pool.
IMPORTANT - Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not limited to grounding, bonding
and other general wiring procedures.
10. Do not install within an outer enclosure.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
