17. Never store pool chemicals within 10 feet of your pool filter valve. Pool chemicals should always be stored in a cool, dry, well
ventilated area.
WARNING — Chemical fumes and/or spills can cause severe attack of filter valve structural components. Structurally
weakened components can cause filter valve or attachments to blow off and could cause severe bodily
injury and or property damage.

Replacement of Valve Top and Diverter Assembly

1. Shut off pump and open air bleeder to relieve all internal pressure.
2. Set valve handle to winterize position.
3. Remove 6 cover screws (Item 9).
4. Lift off valve top and diverter assembly.
NOTICE: Valve diverter assembly has the sealing gasket attached to the diverter. When handling the diverter, use caution to prevent
the sealing surface from being damaged during handling.
5. Clean valve body sealing surface with soft clean lint free cloth. Inspect surface for damage such as scratches or nicks. If surface
is damaged the valve body must be replaced.
6. Carefully lubricate the new valve top replacement o-ring (Item 8) with a silicone based lubricant and place appropriately on
valve top.
WARNING — Improper tank valve assembly could cause the valve to blow off and cause severe injury and/or property
damage.
7. Place the new valve top handle in the winterize position. Install new valve top and diverter assembly making sure small recess
on lid and small bump on valve body are aligned. Start all 6 screws with fingers to ensure that the screw is started in the formed
thread of the valve body. Screws should be tightened progressively by tightening diametrically opposite screws and following
a crisscross pattern. Tighten all 6 valve top attachment screws firmly. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
NOTICE: Valve top is attached with self-tapping screws. The screws must be aligned properly to prevent cross threading of the
screws in the valve body.

Valve Care

The valve is a very important part of your pool equipment and installation. Proper care and maintenance will add many years of
service and enjoyment to the pool. Follow these suggestions for long trouble free operation.
1. To clean the exterior of the valve of dust and dirt, wash with a mild detergent and water and then hose off. Do not use solvents.
WARNING — Always visually inspect valve components during normal servicing to ensure structural safety. Replace any
item which is corroded, bent or otherwise visually defective. Defective valve components can allow the
valve or attachments to blow off and could cause severe bodily injury or property damage.
2. The valve clamp used on your valve has been manufactured with high quality corrosion resistant materials. The manufacturing
process could allow sharp edges to be present on the parts. When working in and around the clamp use caution to prevent
potential injury to fingers or hands from contact with sharp edges.
3. Your valve is a pressure vessel and should never be serviced while under pressure. Always relieve tank pressure and open
air bleeder before attempting to service your valve.
4. Open the manual air bleeder and stand clear of the filter/valve before restarting your pump.

Winterizing Procedure

1. Shut off pump and open the valve air bleeder.
2. Drain and winterize the pump and filter per the manufacturer's instructions.
3. Depress valve handle and rotate so valve pointer is on circular rib on valve top at area on valve marked WINTERIZE.
NOTICE: The valve should be left in this position during the shutdown season so the valve diverter has no pressure on the rubber
seal.
