SECTION 3. MAINTENANCE
WARNING
DO NOT open the strainer pot if pump fails to prime, or if pump has been operating without water in the strainer
pot. Pumps operated in these circumstances may experience a buildup of vapor pressure and may contain
scalding hot water. Opening the pump may cause serious personal injury. In order to avoid the possibility of
personal injury, make sure the suction and discharge valves are open and strainer pot temperature is cool to
touch, then open with extreme caution.
THE FILTER OPERATES UNDER HIGH PRESSURE
When any part of the circulating system (e.g., lock ring, pump, filter, valves, etc.) is serviced, air
can enter the system and become pressurized. Pressurized air can cause the lid to blow off which
can result in severe injury, death or property damage. To avoid this potential hazard, follow these
instructions carefully.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the pump and filter and for proper operation of the system, clean pump strainer and
skimmer baskets regularly.
THE PUMP STRAINER BASKET
The Pump Strainer Basket, sometimes referred as the "hair and lint pot, " is the unit in front of the volute. Inside the
chamber is the basket which must be kept clean of leaves and debris at all times. View the basket through the 'See
Through Lid' to inspect for leaves.
Regardless of the length of time between filter cleaning, it is most important to visually inspect the hair and lint
pot basket at least once a week. A dirty basket will reduce the efficiency of the filter and heater and also put an
abnormal stress on the pump motor which would result in a costly repair bill.
PUMP STRAINER BASKET CLEANING PROCEDURE
1. Turn off motor.
2. Relieve pressure in the system by allowing the water to cool.
3. Gently tap the clamp in a counter-clockwise direction to remove the clamp and lid.
4. Put the debris from the basket into the trash and rinse out the basket. If the basket is cracked, it should be
replaced.
5. Replace the basket and fill the pump pot and volute up to the inlet port with water.
6. Clean the cover, cover O-ring, and sealing surface of the pump pot. Grease the O-ring with Teflon or silicone
grease. NEVER USE PETROLEUM BASED GREASE AS THEY DEGRADE THE O-RINGS.
7. Reinstall the lid by placing the clamp and the lid on the pot; see Exploded View (pg 12) for reference. Make sure
the lid O-ring is properly placed. Seat the clamp and lid then turn clockwise until the handles are perpendicular
to the inlet/outlet ports.
8. Turn the power "ON" at the house circuit breaker. Reset the pool timer clock to the correct time.
9. Open the High Flow manual air relief valve on top of the filter.
10. Start the pump, while standing clear from the filter
11. Bleed air from the filter until a steady stream of water comes out. Close the High Flow manual air relief valve.
