ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Do not pressure test above 35 PSI. Pressure
testing must be done by a trained pool professional.
Circulation equipment that is not tested properly might
fail, which could result in severe injury or property
damage.
When pressure testing the system with water, it is
very important to make sure that the pump basket lid
is completely secure.
1. Fill the system with water, using care to eliminate
trapped air.
2. Pressurize the system with water to no more than
35 PSI.
3. Close the valve to trap pressurized water in the
system.
4. Observe the system for leaks and/or pressure decay.
5. If there are lid leaks, repeat this procedure. For

Section 4. Operation

4.1

Start-up

Never run the pump without water. Running the
pump "dry" for any length of time can cause severe
damage to both the pump and motor and will void the
warranty.
If this is a new pool installation, make sure all piping
is clear of construction debris and has been properly
pressure tested. The filter should be checked for
proper installation, verifying that all connections and
clamps are secure according to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
To avoid risk of property damage, severe personal
injury or death, verify that all power is turned off
before starting this procedure.
1. Depending on the location of the pump, do one of
the following:
- If the pump is located below the water level of the
pool, open the filter pressure release valve to prime
the pump with water.

WARNING
WARNING
CAUTION
WARNING
- If the pump is located above the water level of the
pool, remove the lid and fill the basket with water
before starting the pump.
2. Prior to replacing the lid, check for debris around
the lid o-ring seat. Debris around the lid o-ring seat
will cause air to leak into the system and will make
it difficult to prime the pump.
3. Hand-tighten the lid to make an air tight seal. Do
not use any tools to tighten the lid: hand-tighten
only. Make sure all valves are open and the unions
are tight.
4. Restore power to the pump. Then turn on the pump
by following the instructions in the appropriate
manual: Variable-Speed Controller Owner's
manual, H0412200, AquaLink
Manual, 6593, AquaLink PDA Owner's Manual,
H0572300, or AquaLink Z4™ Owner's Manual,
H0386600.
5. Once all the air has left the filter, close the pressure
release valve.
6. The pump should prime. The time it takes to prime
will depend on the elevation and length of pipe
used on the suction supply pipe. See Installation
Recommendations in Section 3.1 for proper
elevation and pipe size.
The default priming speed is 2750 RPM. The pump
will take approximately 14-15 minutes to prime at
this priming speed when the pump is located 10 feet
above the pool water. If priming speed is adjusted
to 3450 RPM, the pump should prime within 6
minutes at 10 feet above the water level.
NOTE
The pump is NSF-certified as being able to prime
at heights up to 10 ft above the pool water level, at sea
level. However, to achieve better self-priming, install the
pump as close as possible to the water level of the pool.
7. If the pump does not prime and all the instructions
to this point have been followed, check for a
suction leak. If there is no leak, repeat Steps 2
through 7.
