INSTRUCTIONS
Water Pump Assembly
1. Secure the water pump to the base plate with the provided pump mounting hardware.
See Figure 1.
2. Screw the 1¼”-1½” hose connector into the center port of the water pump. Ensure that
O-Ring A (2¼” dia) is installed between the port and the connector.
3. Remove the threaded ring (collar) on the outer opening of the pump.
4. Place O-Ring B (3" dia) in the groove around the hair and lint strainer basket.
5. Place the transparent hair & lint strainer cover in place and then screw the threaded ring
(collar) back on securely over the cover.
6. Insert O-Ring C (1½" dia) inside the outward facing opening of the transparent hair & lint
strainer cover. Then attach the hose connector to the strainer cover. See Figure 2.
7. Place the base plate and pump in your selected site where the Pool Filter System will be
located for normal operation. This site should be within the reach of the pool filter and
return hoses but no closer than 10 feet to the pool (see Section 1, Safety Warnings).
Filter Tank Assembly
1. Installing the drain valve. See Figure 3.
a. Install one gasket onto the main body of the drain valve. Place this valve through
the drain hole in the bottom of the filter.
b. Place the other gasket on the outside of the tank onto the main body and secure
it with the plastic collar.
c. Install the drain cap for the valve and ensure all of the components are tight.
2. Installing the manifold assembly. See Figure 4.
3. Place the filter tank into the corresponding groove located in the filter base plate.
See Figure 5.
4. Filling the filter tank with sand.
Note:
The filter pump assembly should be in its permanent location before
filling the chamber with sand. Otherwise the unit will be too heavy
and difficult to move around.
a. Install the spigot on the mouth of the filter tank, making sure that the spigot is holding
the manifold tube securely. This will ensure that when filling the tank, no sand will enter
the manifold assembly. NOTE: The spigot is only used when adding sand to the tank.
Remove the spigot after adding sand.
b. Carefully fill the filter tank with 30 lbs of No. 20 silica sand.
CAUTION
Use breathing filter/mask approved for dust & sand and adequate
eye protection while filling the tank. Avoid breathing in dust.
IMPORTANT
It is important to ensure that sand does not exceed the recommended quantity/weight.
