 section of this owner’s 

manual (instructions are also packaged with the MicroSilk 
unit packaging). The pump is prewired to the control box. 
The control boxes have a 36” (91cm) cord with plug end. 
The MicroSilk and pump control boxes are mounted on 
a stand that is temporarily secured to the packing board 
for  shipping.  These  boxes  must  remain  on  the  control 

box  bracket  so  that  the  two  boxes  can  communicate 
properly  through  their  infrared  communication  feature. 
During installation, the control box bracket and controls 
must  be  positioned  horizontally  and  located  to  permit 
access for inspection and servicing. The MicroSilk pump’s 
power cord will need to be plugged into the control box.  
Connect the pump’s male J+J plug to the female J+J plug 
of  the  control  box’s  load  line.  The  MicroSilk  and  pump 
junction box must be plugged into a dedicated 240v 20A, 
50  or  60  Hz,  GFCI  protected  circuit.
