DO NOT open the strainer pot if UltraFlow
without water in the strainer pot. Pumps operated in these circumstances may experience a build up 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.
To prevent damage to the pump and for proper operation of the system, clean pump strainer and skimmer baskets regularly.
Pump Strainer Basket
The pump strainer basket (or 'strainer pot' , 'hair and lint
pot'), is located in front of the volute. Inside the chamber
is the basket which must be kept clean of leaves and
debris at all times. View basket through the 'See Through
Lid' to inspect for leaves and debris.
Regardless of the length of time between filter cleaning,
it is most important to visually inspect the 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.
Cleaning the Pump Strainer Basket
1.
Turn off the pump at the circuit breaker.
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.
Remove debris and rinse out the basket. Replace the
basket if it is cracked.
5.
Put the basket back into the housing. Be sure to align the
notch in the bottom of the basket with the rib in the bottom
of the volute.
6.
Fill the pump pot and volute up to the inlet port with water.
7.
Clean the cover, O-ring, and sealing surface of the pump
pot. Note: It is important to keep the lid O-ring clean and
well lubricated.
8.
Reinstall the lid by placing the lid on the pot. Be sure the
lid O-ring is properly placed. Seat the clamp and lid on the
pump then turn clockwise until the handles are horizontal.
9.
Turn the power "ON" at the house circuit breaker. Reset
the pool time clock to the correct time, if applicable.
10. Open the High Flow
™
manual air relief valve on top of the
filter.
11. Stand clear of the filter. Start the pump.
12. Bleed air from the filter until a steady stream of water
comes out. Close the High Flow
THIS SYSTEM 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 separate which
can result in serious injury, death, or property
damage. To avoid this potential hazard, follow
above instructions.

MAINTENANCE
Winterizing
You are responsible for determining when freezing
conditions may occur. If freezing conditions are
expected, take the following steps to reduce the risk of
freeze damage. Freeze damage is not covered under
warranty.
To prevent freeze damage, follow the procedures below:
1.
Shut off electrical power for the pump at the circuit
breaker.
2.
Drain the water out of the pump housing by
removing the two thumb-twist drain plugs from the
housing. Store the plugs in the pump basket.
3.
Cover the motor to protect it from severe rain, snow
and ice.
Note: Do not wrap motor with plastic or other air tight
materials during winter storage. The motor may be
covered during a storm, winter storage, etc., but never
when operating or expecting operation.
Note: In mild climate areas, when temporary freezing
conditions may occur, run your filtering equipment all
night to prevent freezing.
