flow from Port D to release the air.
NOTE: It is important to repeat this operation every time you

the sand bed.
FIRST TIME USE INSTRUCTIONS
Backwash and Rinsing must be performed to prepare the pump for its first use
and to wash the sand.
CAUTION: DO NOT DRY RUN THE SAND FILTER
1. Press down on the Control Valve handle and rotate to the Backwash function.
2. Plug in and run the sand filter for 3-5 minutes, or until the water runs clear.
3. Switch off the sand filter and set the Control Valve to the Rinse function.
4. Switch on the sand filter and run the sand filter for 1 min. This circulates water
backwards through the sand filter and drains water out Port D.
5. Switch off the sand filter. Set the Control Valve to the Closed function.
6. Top up pool water if required.
IMPORTANT: This procedure removes water
from the pool, which you'll need to replace.
Switch off the sand filter immediately if water
levels near the pool's Inlet and Outlet valves.
1. Now the sand filter is ready for use. Set the
Control Valve to the Filter function.
NOTE: To prevent the risk of electrical shock dry
any excess water from yourself and the sand filter.
IMPORTANT: Before operation, make sure the
tank is placed steadily on its base and connected
correctly to the pump.
2. Switch on the sand filter to run it.
NOTE: The sand filter has now started its filtering cycle. Check that
water is returning to the pool and take note of the filter pressure on
Pressure Gauge. Generally, the recommended sand filter pressure is
less than 0.56 Bar (8.0 PSI) when it is running.
