3. Make sure the pump pot is full with water before starting the pump.
Keep all air vents on underside of motor (or motor enclosure) free of
debris to ensure proper cooling of motor.
4. Check valve clamp on filter for proper assembly. Note: See
instructions under "Installation" section of this manual if in doubt.
5. Open manual air bleeder on filter. STAND CLEAR OF FILTER and
start the pump, allowing it time to prime.
Note: Install electrical controls (e.g., on/off switches, timers, control
systems, etc.) at least five (5) feet from the filter. This will allow you
enough room to stand clear of the filter during system start up.
6. Close the air bleeder on the filter when a steady stream of water
emerges.
Note: Pool Filter Sand is typically prewashed and should not
require extensive backwashing. However, the shipping process
may cause excessive abrasion which could require an extended
backwash cycle at initial start-up; continue to backwash for
three (3) minutes.
7. Stop the pump. Set the valve to the "Filter" position.
8. Ensure all suction and pool return lines are open so that water is free
to come from the pool and return to the pool.
9. Open the manual air bleeder on the filter. STAND CLEAR OF THE
FILTER and start the pump.
10. Close the air bleeder on the filter when a steady stream of water
emerges.
11. The filter has now started its filtering cycle. Be sure the water is
returning to the pool and take note of the operating pressure when the
filter is clean.
