Pressure Gauge
CAUTION
Maintain your pressure gauge in good working order. The
pressure gauge is the primary indicator of how the filter
is operating.
1. During operation of the filtration system, check the
pressure gauge/air release assembly for air or water
leaks at least once a week.
2. Keep the pressure gauge in good working order.
If you suspect a problem with the gauge, Zodiac
Pool Systems LLC recommends you call a service
technician to do any work on the filter/pump
system.
6.3
Cleaning the Filter Cartridge
1. Turn off the filter pump and switch off the circuit
breaker to the pump motor.
2. If the filter is installed below pool level, close any
filter isolation valves to prevent flooding.
3. Open the air release valve on top of the filter and
wait for all air pressure to be released.
4. Open the filter tank drain. When the filter tank has
drained, close the drain. Place it upright in a area
suitable for washing.
5. Open filter tank and remove cartridge element,
see Section 5.1 "Filter Element Removal". Place it
upright in an area suitable for washing.
6. Use a garden hose and nozzle to wash each pleat
of the element.
NOTE: Algae, suntan oil, calcium and body oils can form
coatings on filter element which may not be removed
by normal hosing. To remove such materials, soak the
element in de-greaser and then a de-scaler. Your local
pool shop will be able to recommend suitable products.
7. Replace the cartridge back into the filter tank.
Inspect the O-Ring for cracks or wear marks. Place
the O-Ring back onto the filter tank top. Replace
the top of the tank. See Section 3.4 "Locking Ring
and Tank Top Assembly Installation".
8. Reopen the isolation valves if they were closed.
9. Stand clear of the filter, start the pump and circulate
the water until water sprays out of the air release
valve. Close the air release valve. The filter is now
back in operating mode.
10. 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.

Breather Tube Maintenance
1. Turn off the filter pump and switch off the circuit
breaker to the pump motor.
2. If the filter is installed below pool level, close any
filter isolation valves to prevent flooding.
3. Open the air release valve on top of the filter and
wait for all air pressure to be released.
4. Loosen the drain plug at the base of the filter to
ensure the tank is empty.
5. Open the filter tank.
6. Check breather tube for obstructions or debris.
If necessary, remove the breather tube and flush
with running water until the obstruction or debris is
cleared. See Figure 7.
7. If the obstruction or debris can not be removed
or the breather tube is damaged, STOP using the
filter immediately and replace the breather tube
assembly.
WARNING
If the breather tube is not fully seated or
is damaged or clogged, trapped air can
cause product failure or also cause the
filter lid to be blown off which can result in
death, serious personal injury or property
damage.
8. Reassemble breather tube. Fully seat the breather
tube into the bottom tank.
9. Replace the filter locking ring and tank top
assembly on the filter and tighten. See Section 3.4
"Locking Ring and Tank Top Assembly Installation".
10. Reopen isolation valve if they were closed.
11. Stand clear of the filter, start the pump and
circulate the water until water sprays out of the air
release valve. Close the air release valve. The filter
is now back in operating mode.
12. 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.
Section 7. Winterizing
1. Turn off the filter pump and switch off the circuit
breaker to the pump motor.
2. Open air release valve on top of the filter. Do not
remove.
3. Loosen the drain nut and cap at the base of the
filter to ensure that the tank is empty.
4. Drain circulation system of all water.
5. Cover the system with a tarpaulin or plastic sheet
to protect it from the weather.
