Hazardous Pressure: Pool and spa water circulation systems operate under hazardous pressure during
start-up, normal operation, and after pump shut-off. Stand clear of circulation system equipment during
pump start-up. Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation of the
pump housing and cover due to pressure in the system, which could cause property damage, severe
personal injury, or death. Before servicing pool and spa water circulation system, all system and pump
controls must be in off position and lter manual air relief valve must be in open position. Before starting
system pump, all system valves must be set in a position to allow system water to return back to the pool.
DO NOT change lter control valve position while system pump is running. Before starting system pump,
fully open lter manual air relief valve. DO NOT close lter manual air relief valve until a steady stream
of water (not air or air and water) is discharged. All suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN when
starting the circulation system. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury and/or property
damage.
Separation Hazard: Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation
of pump components. Strainer cover must be properly secured to pump housing with strainer cover lock
ring. Before servicing pool and spa circulation system, all system and pump controls must be in off position
and lter manual air relief valve must be in open position. Do not operate pool and spa circulation system
if a system component is not assembled properly, damaged, or missing. Do not operate pool and spa
circulation system unless lter air relief valve body is in locked position in lter upper body. All
suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN when starting the circulation system. Failure to do so could
result in severe personal injury and/or property damage. Never operate or test the circulation system at
more than 40 PSI.
Fire and Burn Hazard: Motors operate at high temperatures and if they are not properly isolated from
any ammable structures or foreign debris they can cause res, which may cause severe personal injury
or death. It is also necessary to allow the motor to cool for at least 20 minutes prior to maintenance to
minimize the risk for burns.
This product should be installed and serviced only by a qualied professional.
If pump is being pressure tested (40 PSI MAXIMUM), be sure pressure has been released, using the lter
manual air relief valve, before removing strainer cover.
NEVER run pump dry. Running pump dry may damage seals, causing leakage, ooding, and voids
warranty. Fill strainer housing with water before starting motor.
Match supply voltage to motor nameplate voltage. Insure that the electrical supply available agrees with
the motor’s voltage, phase, and cycle, and that the wire size is adequate for the H.P. (KW) rating and
distance from the power source.
All suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN, as well as lter air relief valve (if available) on lter,
when starting the circulating pump system. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury.
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock hazard, turn OFF power to motor before draining pump.
Failure to disconnect power may result in serious personal injury or death.
Install, ground, bond, and wire motor in accordance with local or national electrical code requirements.
Permanently ground motor. Use green ground terminal provided under motor canopy or access place; use
size and type wire required by code. Connect motor ground terminal to electrical service ground. Bond
motor to pool structure. Bonding will connect all metal parts within and around the pool with a continuous
wire. Bonding reduces the risk of a current passing between bonded metal objects, which could potentially
cause electrical shock if grounded or shorted. Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but
not limited to, grounding, bonding and general wiring procedures.
Fittings restrict ow. For better efciency, use the fewest possible ttings (but at least two suction outlets).
Avoid ttings that could cause an air trap. Pool and spa ttings MUST conform to the International
Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Ofcials (IAPMO) standards. Use a non-entrapping suction tting
in pool (multiple drains) or double suction (skimmer and main drain).
