This product is specifically designed for use with permanent swimming pools and, if
appropriately marked, can also be used with hot tubs and spas. However, it should not be used with
storable pools. A permanently installed pool is one that is built in or on the ground, or within a building,
making it incapable of being easily disassembled for storage. On the other hand, a storable pool is
designed to be disassembled and reassembled for storage while maintaining its original integrity. Please
ensure that this product is only used with permanent swimming pools and hot tubs or spas if appropriately
indicated. Avoid using it with storable pools to prevent potential hazards and ensure optimal performance.
Please note that this unit must only be connected to a supply circuit protected by a
ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). The installation of a GFCI is the responsibility of the installer, and
it should be regularly tested for proper functioning. To test the GFCI breaker, simply press the test button,
which should interrupt power. Pressing the reset button should restore power. If the GFCI fails to operate
as described, it is defective and should be replaced. If the GFCI interrupts power to the pump without
pressing the test button, it indicates the presence of a ground current and the possibility of electric shock.
In such cases, do not use the pump. Disconnect it immediately and seek the expertise of a qualified
service representative to address and rectify the issue before resuming use (to test the GFCI breaker).
Risk of electrical shock. Connect this product solely to a branch circuit that is
safeguarded by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). If you are unable to confirm the presence of a
GFCI protection on the circuit, please seek assistance from a qualified electrician.

PUMP MAINTENANCE
• Motors are designed to be self-lubricating, eliminating the need for additional lubrication.
• Check the motor for any blockage of air vents on the motor shell. If any debris is found, remove it after
turning off the power source.
• If any leakage is noticed, inspect the shaft seals, and replace them if they show signs of wear.
• Protection from heat:
◦ Shield the motor from direct sunlight by providing shade.
◦ Ensure any enclosure used is well-ventilated to prevent overheating.
◦ Promote ample cross ventilation to keep the motor cool.
• Protection against dirt:
◦ Safeguard the motor from any foreign matter or splashing water.
◦ Avoid storing pool chemicals near the motor to prevent potential damage.
◦ Refrain from sweeping or stirring up dust near the motor while it's in operation.
◦ Remember that motor damage caused by dirt will void the motor warranty.
• Protection against moisture:
◦ Shield the motor from splashing pool water and lawn sprinklers.
◦ Keep it protected from harsh weather conditions.
◦ If the motor gets wet, allow it to dry completely before operating it again. Avoid using the pump if it has
been flooded.
◦ Note that water damage to the motor will void the motor warranty.
Pump Protection
NOTE
CAUTION
DANGER
Always ensure the power to the pump is disconnected before starting any work.
Never wrap the motor with plastic or any other airtight materials. While it's acceptable to cover the motor
during a storm or for winter storage, it should never be covered while it is operating or expected to be in
operation.
When replacing the motor, ensure that the motor support is correctly positioned to adequately support the size
of the motor being installed.
