Operating instructions

Starting up a Beachcomber Hot Tub
Once the Hybrid equipment is hooked up using the separate
instructions provided with the Hybrid Equipment box, and the
electrical connection is made by a qualified electrician, do the
following:
1. Check all union fittings on the
Hybrid
or Portable
equipment to ensure that they are tight. Hand-tightened
is sufficient. If leaking is noted at these fittings you may
need to tighten further or the gasket may be missing or
not seated properly. Unscrew the union and check.
2. Open all knife valves that are pointing up. See figure 4.
Leave all valves that are facing down in the closed
position. Fill the hot tub with water from a garden hose.
You can hang the hose over the edge of the hot tub or
hook it up to the drain/fill valve located down by the
pumps and fill from the bottom. It is recommended you
run your water through your garden hose to waste for a
few seconds before filling the hot tub.
3. Fill the hot tub to half way up the skimmer opening.
Note: If your hot tub is Hush Pump™ equipped your
level can be lowered to one third up the skimmer
opening. This will allow for more displacement if the hot
tub is subjected to use by more than the recommended
amount of people for that model. See Figure 5.
OVER FILLING WILL NOT ALLOW ROOM
FOR DISPLACEMENT FROM PEOPLE
ENTERING THE HOT TUB. UNDER FILLING COULD CAUSE AN
AIRLOCK IN THE SYSTEM AND COULD LEAD TO PUMP AND
HEATER DAMAGE NOT COVERED BY YOUR GUARANTEE.
WARNING
ENSURE YOUR HOT TUB IS SITUATED ON
A LEVEL, HARD SURFACE CAPABLE OF
SUPPORTING BOTH THE WEIGHT OF THE HOT TUB, AND THE
WATER IN IT. SEE PAGE 33 FOR DETAILS.
