PUMP MAINTENANCE
• The pump requires little to no maintenance other than reasonable care
and cleaning of the strainer basket on a regular basis. The pump is
equipped with a mechanical seal. This seal may eventually come loose
of a period of time, depending on running time and water quality. If water
continually leaks out, a new mechanical seal should be installed.
• See parts diagram for seal location.
• The pump is equipped with a rubber O-Ring that seals the strainer basket
lid. This O-Ring should be lubricated with water proof lubricant
(O-RING LUBE) to ensure proper seal and extend O-Ring life.
If O-Ring becomes cracked or worn (flattened) is will become necessary
to replace.
2 SPEED OPERATION
• Pump speed is controlled by rocker switch located at the rear of the motor.
• The low speed setting should be used for normal operation. The
motor should be operated at this slower energy saving speed for
normal pool filtration.
•
The high setting should be used when operating additional equipment with
your filtration system such as a vacuum.
• To manually change speed from low to high simply change the position of
the rocker switch at the rear of the motor.
• To manually change from high to low speed simply change the position of
the rocker switch at the rear of the motor.
NOTE
The motor will only run at the speed selected by
the rocker switch at rear of motor.
