Element Filter System

Owner’s Manual and Installation Guide

221666071685B

Congratulations! You have purchased one

of the most user-friendly pool filter sys-

tems available. Ideal for above-ground

pools or in-ground vinyl liner pools, this

element filter system will provide you with

many years of pool enjoyment.

This step-by-step installation and mainte-

nance guide will provide the necessary in-

formation for you to install your new pool

system and easily maintain the equipment.

Risk of hair and/or body

entrapment!  This system can

create high suction vacuum and should be installed with appropriate

vacuum release skimmers or multiple suction fittings or both.

Always make sure the filter Ring-

Lok is tightened to “built-in stop”

prior to operating pump. Do Not remove or adjust the Ring-Lok while

the pump is running; doing so may cause the filter cover to blow off,

causing injury or property damage.

To reduce risk of injury, do not

permit children to use this prod-

uct unless they are closely supervised at all times.

(For cord & plug connected units)

Risk of Electric Shock. Connect

only to a grounding type receptacle protected by a ground-fault cir-

cuit-interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot

verify that the receptacle is protected by a GFCI.

(For cord & plug connected units)

Do not bury cord. Locate cord

to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers and other

equipment.

(For cord & plug connected units)

To reduce the risk of electric

shock, replace damaged cord immediately.

(For cord & plug connected units)

To reduce the risk of electric

shock,  do not use an extension cord to connect unit to electric

supply; provide a properly located outlet.

Locate the system at least five

feet (1.5M) from the pool to pre-

vent it being used as a means of access to the pool by young chil-

dren.  (See ANSI/NSPI-8 1996 “Model Barrier Code For Residential

Swimming Pools, Spas and Hot Tubs”).

This pump is for use with

permanently installed pools and

may also be used with hot tubs and spas if so marked. Do not use

with storable pools. A permanently installed pool is constructed in or

on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disas-

sembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so that it may be

readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original in-

tegrity.

To guard against low voltage

which can damage the pump mo-

tor, use minimum wire gauge. Shown below:

LOCATION OF SYSTEM:

1) Locate system on solid, level

foundation.  2) To reduce the risk

of electrical shock, install the

system at least 5 feet (1.5M)

from the pool. Give consider-

ation to any other local codes

that may apply.  3) System

should have adequate access

for future servicing and winter-

izing.  4) Provide for adequate

water drainage away from

equipment.  5) If you cover your

system, be certain to provide

adequate ventilation.

Step 1

Although optional, we recom-

mend shut-off valves (A) be in-

stalled in the pump inlet and

pool inlet fitting for easy servicing when the system is installed below the water level of the pool.

Step 2

Prepare hose adapters by wrapping threads with teflon tape. Install two hose adapters

(B) in the following locations: Pump Inlet (or optional shut-off valve) and Filter Outlet.

Step 3

Attach hose (C) using hose clamps (D) to male adapters (B) according to the diagram shown above.

Note: Refer to pool manufacturer’s installation instructions for more detail.

You are now ready to fill your pool and begin system start-up procedures.

Standard 3-prong

plug

Refer to information on motor nameplate for electrical service data.

If the pump on your system is supplied with a 3-prong twist lock

115V plug, then the appropriate female receptacle should be in-

stalled.  For systems with a standard 3-prong 115V plug, we

recommend a grounded receptacle be installed with a built-in

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). Motors should have fused

disconnect switch or circuit breaker and wire size large enough for

pump horsepower and distance from power source. Wiring should

be done in accordance with applicable codes by a competent elec-

trician.
