Before using the Pump
IMPORTANT:
1. Make sure to press the pump power switch to OFF before plugging the GFCI Power Cord Set
4
into a power outlet. Do NOT connect the Set to a timer device.
2. Always PRESS DOWN the 6-Port Valve Handle
a
BEFORE switching handle positions.
3. Always BACKWASH the sand before filtering. This prevents fine sand from going through the pump and then to the pool, meanwhile washes off the dirt and debris
of the sand.
4. Make sure that the Hoses
r
t
are firmly secured to the fittings on the pump and the pool.
5. Fill the pool with water up to the FILL LINE. Do NOT dry run the filter pump.
6. FILTER PUMP ALONE WILL NOT PREVENT ALGAE FROM GROWING IN POOL WATER; THIS CAN ONLY BE DONE BY MAINTAINING PROPER CHLORINE
AND pH LEVELS AT ALL TIMES. For details, see POOL WATER CARE (p. 16).
