handling in shipment. If filter is damaged notify the carrier
immediately.
The filter may only be used for the filtering of swimming
pool water, garden pond water or similar applications.
Installation instructions

nearby swimming pools, garden ponds or such places.
The filter should be placed on a flat, solid foundation.
Install the filter and pump in a sheltered location,
ensuring ventilation and adequate access for servicing.

can reach the valve easily. Then fix the piping. Use only
plastic piping. Size all piping adequately and keep the
number of elbows to a minimum.

guide. Put some vaseline on the O-rings from the valve.
Assemble the valve to the filter and tighten with the clamp
ring. Connect the piping. Turn the valve into position
