Before installation,be sure to read all instructions and warnings carefully.
Refer to product dataplate(s)for additional operating instruction and specifications.
Inspection
Examine the equipment when received.Notify your dealer or carrier of any damage or missing parts.Verify
that equipment is of size and model specified.
Important Safety Instructions
When installing and using this electrical equipment,basic safety precations should always be followed,
including the following:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. WARNING—To reduce risk of injury,do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely
supervised at all times.
3. WARNING—(For cord&plug connected units). Risk of Electrical Shock.Connect only to a grounding type
receptacle protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter(GFCI).Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot
verify that the receptacle is protected by a GFCI.
4. WARNING—(For cord&plug connected units).Do not bury cord.Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn
mowers,hedge trimmers and other equipment.
5. WARNING—(For cord&plug connected units).To reduce the risk of electric shock,replace damaged cord
1
immediately.
6. WARNING—(For cord&plug connected units).To reduce the risk of electrical shock do not use an extension
cord to connect unit to electrical supply;provide a properly located outlet.
7. CAUTION—(For pumps with a 25 ft.(7.62m cord).This pump is for use with storable pools only. Do not use
with permanently installed pools.A storable pool is constructed so that it may be readily disassembled for
storage and reassembled to its original integrity.A permanently installed pool is constructed in or on the ground
or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage.
8. CAUTION—(For pumps with/without 3ft.(91 m cord)or 6ft.(1.82m cord).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 disassembled for storage.A storable pool is constructed so that it may be readily
disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity.
9. WARNING—(For hot tub and spa pumps).Do not install within an outer enclosure or beneath the skirt of the
hot tub or spa,unless so marked.
10.SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Installation Location
Locate pump as close to pool/spa as possible,preferably in a dry,well ventilated area away from direct
sunlight. It should be on a hard,level surface.Give consideration to:
1.Drainage—away from pump.
2.Ventilation of pump motor.
3.Access for future servicing and winterizing.
4. Protection from the elements.
Pumps without strainer bodies are designed for flooded suction(all suction fittings and suction piping below
water level)and will not self-prime.Consequently,the pump must be installed at an elevation that is below water
level when pool or spa is filled;however, if suction line valves are installed,the pump may be closed for priming.
Keep vertical distance to a minimum if you choose to mount pump above water level.
Pumps with strainer bodies are self-priming but should be mounted as close to the water level as possible or
below for ease in priming.
General Plumbing
FOR SOLVENT WELD CONNECTION
Rigid or flexible PVC pipe can be used.Pipe ends should be clean and free of any flash cause by the cutting
operation.Be sure that the proper adhesive is used on the type of pipe specified.
Note:A primer will assure that adhesive joints are superior.Suregard P-3000 has a purple tracer to qualify in areas
where codes specify a primer must be used.
Caution:We recommend that you consider climatic conditions when applying adhesives.Certain atmospheric
situations,such as high moisture content,make adhesive action of certain glues less effective.Check the
manufacturer's instructions.
FOR THREADED CONNECTIONS
Use only Teflon tape or equivalent on threaded plumbing connections.Other pipe compounds may damage
threads.We do not recommend the use of silicone or
petroleum based compounds.DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN—HAND TIGHTEN PLUS'/z TURN IS SUFFICIENT.

Pump Plumbing
Suction pipe should be as large or larger that discharge pipe.Avoid using suction pipe small that pump
connection.
Keep the piping as straight and short as possible,and of suitable size.Avoid connecting an elbow directly into
the pump inlet(use a length of straight pipe to allow a proper entry for the water).Arrange horizontal runs to slope
upward to the pump to prevent high spots that could form air pockets.Support the pipe independently so that it
places no strain on the pump.Keep as much of the suction line as possible below the water level to reduce priming
time.Install valves and unions in the pump suction and return lines to facilitate servicing.Valves are recommended
for throttling
maintenance if the system is installed below deck level.Suction valves are essential for priming all pumps without
strainer bodies installed above water level.Pumps with
strainer bodies are self-priming,nevertheless,we recommend the use of check valve in the suction pipe at or
below the water level if the suction lift is more that five feet or if the dry suction is more that ten feet long.Keep the
valve in the suction line fully open during operation.
Electrical Data
Refer to information on motor nameplate fo electrical service data.All motors should have fused disconnect
switch or circuit breaker.Be sure wire size is sufficient for pump HP and distance from power source.Wiring should
be done in accordance with applicable codes by a competent electrician.
We recommend the installation of a ground fault circuit interrupter for maximum safety.
Pump Start Up
Do not operate pump until it has been primed as water acts to cool and lubricate the seal. For pumps without
strainer bodies and locator above water,close suction line valve and fill pump with water in order to prime.For
pumps with strainer bodies and located above water,prime by removing strainer cover and filling strainer body with
water. Pumps located below water level will selfprime if all piping is also below water level.After pump has been
primed,energize motor and open all suction and discharge line valves.It may take some time for pump to remove
air from suction lines.If no flow is observed in five minutes,stop the motor and re-prime.If the pump fails to
operate,check for air leaks. Refer to Trouble Shooting section.
After about ten minutes of operation,check the return fittings for air bubbles.A continuous flow of air indicates
leaks in suction line.Locate and correct any leaks immediately.
CONTROLLING THE OUTPUT
Keep the gate valve in the suction line fully open during operation.Should it be necessary to control the output,
use a valve in the return line.
Caution:Do not retighten strainer Ring-Lok during operation.
Caution:Do not operate pump with closed suction or discharge valves.
Two-Speed Pumps
Two-speed models are recommended in a swimming pool when high speed is needed for maximum filtration
at peak periods and whenever turbidity levels are high.At other times,switch to low speed.For backwashing and
vacuuming,high speed is required.
In spas and hot tubs,use high speed to attain full performance in the hydro-therapy mode.At other times,such
as filter/heat cycle mode,use low speed.Low speed provides sufficient flow to activate most spa heaters and

provides sufficient flow for filtration.
In jetted tubs,use high speed to attain full performance in the hydro-therapy mode and use low speed mode to
prime.The below picture shows how to switch between the high speed and low speed.
