WARNING
This filter operates under high pressure.
Ensure that the locking ring is turned
until it clicks past the stop tab. Failure to
properly install the locking ring or using
a locking ring that is damaged can cause
product failure or also cause lid separation,
which could result in death, serious
personal injury or property damage.
To avoid injury, keep fingers clear of the
lower tank threads and stop tab.
Section 4. Start-Up and Operation
WARNING
NEVER start pump while standing within
five (5) feet of the filter. Starting the pump
while there is pressurized air in the system
can cause product failure or also cause the
filter lid to be blown off, which can cause
death, serious personal injury or property
damage.
NEVER operate the filter system at more
than 50 psi of pressure. Operating the
filter system in excess of 50 psi can cause
product failure or also cause the filter lid
to be blown off, which can cause death,
serious personal injury or property damage.

CAUTION
DO NOT operate filter at water temperatures above
105° F (40.6° C). Water temperatures above the
manufacturer's recommendations will shorten the life
span of the filter and may void the warranty.
4.1
New Pool and Seasonal Start-up
1. Turn off the filter pump and switch off the circuit
breaker to the pump motor.
2. Check that the filter drain cap and nut are in place
and tight.
3. Check that the tank locking ring is properly seated
and tight.
4. Open the pump hair/lint pot lid and fill the pump
basket with water to prime the system. Replace the
pump lid. You may have to do this a few times on
new and seasonal start ups.
5. Open the air release valve on top of the filter (do
not remove the valve).
6. Be sure to open any isolation valves that were
installed in the system.
7. Stand clear of the filter and start the pump to
circulate water through the system. When all the
air is bled from the system and a steady stream of
water starts to come out of the air release valve,
close the air release valve.
8. Watch the pressure gauge to be sure that the
pressure does not exceed 50 psi. If the pressure
approaches 50 psi, immediately turn the pump
off and clean the filter cartridges. If the pressure
remains high after cleaning the filter, refer to the
troubleshooting guide, Section 8, for possible
causes and solutions.
9. After the pressure gauge has stabilized, turn the
bezel ring so that the arrow next to the word
"CLEAN" aligns with the needle of the gauge. See
Figure 5. As the filter cleans the water, and the
cartridges begin to clog the pressure begins to
increase. When the needle of the pressure gauge
aligns with the arrow next to the word "DIRTY"
on the bezel, it is time to clean the filter, see
Section 6.3. This indicates an increased pressure
of between 10 and 12 psi above original starting
pressure. Ensure pump speed remains the same
when recording "CLEAN" and "DIRTY" pressure.
