Priming the pump for the fi rst time, or after service (Continued)
Priming the Pump
NOTICE: If you replace the o-ring with a non-lubricated o-ring, you may need to apply a silicone
based lubricant.
• Clean and inspect o-ring; reinstall on trap cover.
• Replace trap cover on trap; turn clockwise to tighten cover.
NOTICE: Tighten the pump lid by hand only (no wrenches).
Priming time will depend on vertical length of suction lift and horizontal length of suction piping.
If pump does not prime, make sure that all valves are open, suction pipe end is under water, pump
suction is below water level, and that there are no leaks in suction pipe.
To prime the IntelliPro

pump:
1. Turn the pump clamp and lid in a counter-clockwise direction until it stops and remove them.
2. Fill the pump strainer pot with water.
3. Check the system and ensure water has an open path for free system fl ow.
4. Reinstall the pump clamp and lid onto the strainer pot. The pump is now ready to prime.
5. Make sure all electrical connections are clean and tight.
6. Open the air release valve on the fi lter, and stand clear of the fi lter.
7. Switch the pump on at the circuit breaker. Ensure that the green power light is on.
8. Press the Speed 1 button to select the pump speed of 750 RPM.
9. Press the Start button to start the pump. Use the Up/Down button to increase the speed as
necessary to prime the pump.
10. When water comes out of the air release valve, close the valve. The system should now be
circulating water back to the pool without air bubbles showing in either the hair and lint pot or at the
pool return fi ttings.
11. Use the Up/Down button to adjust the operating speed as desired.
