IMPORTANT! This Skimmer Filter Pump is protected by a thermal switch, a safety device that stops the pump from running when it is overheated, to prevent
pump damage and prolong service life. If your pump turns off automatically, it is likely the pool water temperature is too high or the water flow through the pump
is insufficient to cool the pump down. Check and correct the water flow, make the motor rest for at least 15 minutes and then plug in, or run the pump at night
when the temperature is lower. If pump turns off automatically again, inspect your pump motor as it may be blocked by dirt.
1. Check the pump output daily. If water flow reduces, see Problem 2 of TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE (p. 17).
2. Check the Pump, Hoses and Fittings for leaks. If a leak is found, see Problem 4 of TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE.
3. It is essential to replace any damaged parts as soon as possible. Use only spare parts from approved, reliable dealers.
4. Inspect the filter and all filter media regularly to ensure that there is no build-up of debris that prevents good filtration. See FILTER CARTRIDGE
USE & CARE below.
5. Run the Pump for the recommended number of hours daily.
1. To clean the Filter Cartridge :
7
a. Turn off and unplug the Pump. Slide open the Top Cover
Basket and Filter Cartridge.
g
b. Pressure wash the Cartridge thoroughly (including between the
pleats) with a garden hose to remove larger debris. Then allow
the Cartridge to dry, and carefully brush away smaller and fine
particles of dirt. Do NOT scrub the pleats, or the Cartridge will
wear out faster than it should.
c. To ensure pool water stays clean, please clean the filter cartridge
every day and change when required.
d. Reassemble the parts in reverse order. Then you can restart the Pump.
2. You may need to clean or replace the Filter Cartridge when it is dirty, or before the correct
chlorine and pH levels are attained. Therefore, it is recommended to keep at least one spare
cartridge on hand at all times. A clean, well-maintained cartridge ensures that your pump will
always be ready to operate at peak efficiency.
3. Suntan oils, body oils and algae can quickly build up and clog the pleats of the Cartridge,
reducing the filtration efficiency. Therefore, it is imperative to remove such films of oils
and/or algae.
To remove oils: mix 1 pound of tri-sodium phosphate (TSP, or any other strong detergent)
and 5 gallons of water, and soak the Cartridge for 12 hours.
To remove oils AND algae: same as above, and add 1/2 pint (236 ml) of pool chlorine or
1 pint (473 ml) of liquid household bleach to the solution ONE HOUR BEFORE removing
the Cartridge from the solution.
Thoroughly rinse the Cartridge before reusing it.
4. Excessive calcium and/or mineral deposits may also build up in the Cartridge, and need to
be handled differently. Contact and consult your local pool supply store for solutions/treatment,
and maintain an adequate pH level of pool water (see POOL WATER CARE, p. 12).
5. Dispose of any used filter media in accordance with applicable regulations/legislation.
6. Always use genuine Outbound
