Operation; Priming Pump - Water Ace RSP10C Notice D'utilisation

Operation

NEVER run pump dry! Running pump dry may
damage seals, causing leakage and flooding! Fill
pump with water before starting motor.
Before removing trap cover:
1. STOP PUMP before proceeding.
2. CLOSE GATE VALVES in suction and discharge pipes.
3. RELEASE ALL PRESSURE from pump and piping system.
Fire and burn hazard. Modern motors run
at high temperatures. To reduce the risk of fire, do not
allow leaves, debris, or foreign matter to collect around
the pump motor. To avoid burns when handling the
motor, let it cool for 20 minutes before trying to work on
it. An automatic internal cutoff switch protects the motor
from heat damage during operation.
NOTICE: Do not block pool return. To do so may flood
area causing damage to equipment and water damage to
surrounding area.

Priming Pump:

Open valves before starting system.
Release all pressure from filter, pump, and piping system;
see the filter owner's manual.
In a flooded suction system (water source higher than
pump), pump will prime itself when suction and dis-
charge valves are opened.
Pool Water:
Keep water level at least two inches above bottom of
skimmer opening when system is not in use. Failure to
do so can allow air to enter system, causing pump to
lose its prime.
Keep pool water "balanced". Maintain the water pH
between 7.2 and 7.6.
Do not use or allow the use of the pool by anyone
using alcohol or drugs. The effects of hot water,
alcohol and/or drugs can cause dizziness and falling,
loss of consciousness, or heart attack.
Hazardous Suction.
Can trap hair or body,
causing severe injury
or death.
• Do not block suction.
• Keep small children
under close adult
supervision at all times.

Storage/Winterizing:
Explosion hazard. Purging the system with
compressed air can cause components to explode, with
risk of severe injury or death to anyone nearby. Use only
a low pressure (below 5 PSI), high volume blower when
air purging the pump, filter, or piping.
To prevent damage to components from fumes,
store chemicals away from pump. If possible, store
chemicals in another room.
NOTICE: Drain pump! Allowing pump to freeze will
damage pump and void warranty!
NOTICE: Do not use anti-freeze solutions (except propy-
lene glycol) in your pool system. Propylene glycol is
non-toxic and will not damage plastic system compo-
nents; other anti-freezes are highly toxic and may dam-
age plastic components in the system. Propylene glycol
is widely used as antifreeze in recreational vehicles.
Drain all water from pump and piping when expecting
freezing temperatures or when storing pump for a long
time (see instructions below).
Keep motor dry and covered during storage.
To avoid condensation/corrosion problems, do not cover
or wrap pump with plastic.
For outdoor/unprotected installations:
1. Pump down water level below all inlets to pool.
2. Enclose entire system in a weatherproof enclosure.
3. To avoid condensation/corrosion damage, allow ven-
tilation; do not wrap system in plastic.
4. Use a 40% propylene glycol/60% water solution to
protect pump to -50°F.
5. Follow pool manufacturer's directions for storage of
pool.
Draining Pump:
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or
cause death. Disconnect power before working on pump
or motor.
1. Close all valves on suction and return piping.
2. Remove drain plug in bottom of trap body.
3. Drain all piping and storage tanks exposed to freezing
temperatures.
4. Be sure no airlocks are holding water in the system.
5. To prevent pump from freezing, remove trap cover
and drain the tank body through the drain plug (Key
No. 18, Page 10). Clean pump thoroughly. Replace
trap cover.
6. Before restarting, replace all plugs and make sure all
pipe connections are tightly sealed.
