of pump and/or filter components. Strainer cover must be properly secured to pump housing with strainer cover lock ring. Before
servicing pool and spa circulation system, filters 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 filter manual air relief valve body is in locked position in filter 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 50 PSI. Do not purge the system with compressed air.
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.
WARNING
– Risk of Electric Shock. All electrical wiring MUST be in conformance with applicable local codes,
regulations, and the National Electric Code (NEC). Hazardous voltage can shock, burn, and cause death or serious property
damage. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT use an extension cord to connect unit to electric supply. Provide a properly
located electrical receptacle. Before working on any electrical equipment, turn off power supply to the equipment. To reduce
the risk of electric shock replace damaged wiring immediately. Locate conduit to prevent abuse from lawn mowers, hedge
trimmers and other equipment. Do NOT ground to a gas supply line.
WARNING
–
Risk of Electric Shock Failure to ground all electrical equipment can cause serious or fatal electrical shock
hazard. Electrical ground all electrical equipment before connecting to electrical power supply.
WARNING
– Risk of Electric Shock Failure to bond all electrical equipment to pool structure will increase risk for
electrocution and could result in injury or death. To reduce the risk of electric shock, see installation instructions and consult a
professional electrician on how to bond all electrical equipment. Also, contact a licensed electrician for information on local
electrical codes for bonding requirements.
Notes to electrician: Use a solid copper conductor, size 8 or larger. Run a continuous wire from external bonding lug to
reinforcing rod or mesh. Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm
pressure wire connector provided on the electrical equipment and to all metal parts of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, and metal
piping (except gas piping), and conduit within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.
IMPORTANT - Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not limited to, grounding, bonding and other general
wiring procedures.
WARNING
– Risk of Electric Shock. The electrical equipment must be connected only to a supply circuit that is
protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be tested on a
routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push reset button. Power should be
restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the electrical equipment
without the test button being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electrical shock. Do not use this
electrical equipment. Disconnect the electrical equipment and have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative
before using.

and spas if so marked. Do not use with storable pools. A permanently-installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a
building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so that it is capable of being
readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity. Though this product is designed for outdoor use, it is
strongly advised to protect the electrical components from the weather. Select a well-drained area, one that will not flood when it
rains. It requires free circulation of air for cooling. Do not install in a damp or non-ventilated location. If installed within an outer
enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or spa, adequate ventilation and free circulation of air must be provided to prevent
overheating of the motor.
WARNING
– Fire and burn hazard. Motors operate at high temperatures and if they are not properly isolated from any
flammable structures or foreign debris they can cause fires, 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.
WARNING
– Failure to install according to defined instructions may result in severe personal injury or death.
WARNING
– Risk of Hyperthermia. To avoid hyperthermia the following "Safety Rules for Hot Tubs" are recommended
by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never exceed 104°F [40°C]. A temperature of 100°F [38°C] is considered
safe for a healthy adult. Special caution is suggested for young children. Prolonged immersion in hot water can
induce hyperthermia.
2. Drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during spa or hot tub use can cause drowsiness, which could lead to
unconsciousness and subsequently result in drowning.
3. Pregnant women beware! Soaking in water above 100°F [38°C] can cause fetal damage during the first three
months of pregnancy (resulting in the birth of a brain-damaged or deformed child). Pregnant women should adhere to
the 100°F [38°C] maximum rule.
Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation
