DISASSEMBLY & STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
Draining:
For draining, refer to the illustration steps inside the manual.
May not reflect actual product. Not to scale.
Before draining your pool water, make sure that you are draining your pool away from the house and any
objects that are subject to water damage. Check local regulations for drainage bylaws.
Cleaning:
For cleaning, refer to the illustration steps inside the manual.
May not reflect actual product. Not to scale.
NOTE: The Strainer must be emptied and cleaned periodically. A dirty or blocked strainer will reduce the
performance of the sand filter.
Storage:
Remove all accessories; be sure that the sand filter, hoses and debris screens are completely clean and dry
before storage. If all the parts are not completely dry, mold may result.
Before storage, remove and dry the sand, and store in dry place.
We strongly recommend disassembling the sand filter when the environment temperature is below 10ºC / 50ºF.
Store the sand filter in a dry place with a moderate temperature between 10ºC / 50ºF and 38ºC / 100ºF.
