Maintenance/Cleaning/Repair - Pentair 5P6R Notice D'installation Et D'entretien

8. Maintenance / cleaning /
repair
Regular maintenance, cleaning and inspection of the swim-
ming pool pumps is extremely important. This will reduce
problems and increase operating safety and reliability.
8.1 Cleaning
Do not allow live electrical components to come into con-
tact with fluids.
The preliminary filter housing must be cleaned at least once
per week. Otherwise, the pumps require no special clea-
ning.
8.2 Maintenance
Maintenance of the swimming pool pumps must be carried
out only by specially qualified personnel.
Before starting the pump after extended non-use or when
restarting in the spring, it is advisable to turn the motor
shaft, with the pump switched off and the preliminary filter
filled with water, by means of the fan-wheel several times
using an Allen key or screwdriver. This will free the sliding
ring seal and make starting the pump easier.
Switch the pump off before removing the preliminary filter
cover. Close the shut-off valves in the suction and pressure
lines. Open the drain plug briefly, and then remove the preli-
minary filter cover.
The tension strap on the pump body must not be removed as
long as the pump is still under pressure.
8.3 Replacement parts
Replacement parts must conform to the technical require-
ments specified by the manufacturer. This is always guar-
anteed when using original replacement parts. We only of-
fer a guarantee for original replacement parts supplied by
us. The use of any other replacement parts not supplied by
us can adversely affect the design characteristics of the
pump, and thereby impair the active and/or passive safety.
We accept no liability or guarantee in the event of damage
caused by the use of any other than original replacement
parts or accessories.

ming pool dealer, pump service or other specialist dealer.
