IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

THESE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON THE SAFE, PROPER
AND ECONOMICAL OPERATION OF THE SWIMMING POOL PUMPS. STRICT OBSERVATION OF
THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WILL HELP TO AVOID DANGERS, REDUCE REPAIR COSTS,
SHUTDOWN TIMES AND INCREASE THE RELIABILITY AND WORKING LIFE OF THE PRODUCT.
Section 1
General information
Check carton for any evidence of damage due to rough handling in shipment. If carton or any pump
components are damaged, notify the carrier immediately.
Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in serious adverse health effects,
or even serious or fatal injury. Failure to follow the safety instructions will in all cases
invalidate all guarantees and liability on the part of the manufacturer.
• This pump is equipped with a mechanical seal.
• Avoid dry run of the pump. Always ensure pump is filled zwith water.
• Please follow instructions for filling up the pump according to installation and instruction
manual.
•
Section 2
Application
Only to be used to circulate swimming pool water.
Section 3
Installation
• Install the pump as near to the pool as practical.
• Use a direct and short suction line with continuous slope in order to avoid long priming times.
• The pump should be placed on a flat, solid foundation, high enough to prevent flooding of the motor.
• Install the filter and pump in a sheltered location, ensuring ventilation and adequate access for servicing.
• Do not mount electrical controls directly over pump.
• Provide adequate floor drainage to prevent flooding.
• Size all piping adequately and keep the number of elbows to a minimum.
• Independently support the pipe near the suction and discharge of the pump in order to reduce the strain.
• Avoid overtightening pipe connections. Use only pipe sealants formulated for plastics. Do not use petroleum
based products. It is essential that the suction line is free of air leaks. The suction line should always be at
least the same size as the suction inlet of the pump.
• Fitting a non-return valve after the pump on the installation will prevent the impeller from unwinding and is
strongly recommended.
