Running thepump “dry” for any length of time can cause severedamage to both the pump and motor and will voidthe warranty.CAUTIONIf this is a new pool installation, make sure all pipingis clear of construction debris and has been properlypressure tested. The filter should be checked forproper installation, verifying all connections andclamps are secure according to the manufacturer'srecommendations.To avoid risk of property damage, severe personalinjury, or death, verify that all power is turned offbefore starting this procedure.WARNING1.

If the pump is located above the water level ofthe pool, remove the lid and fill the basket withwater before starting the pump.4.

Use your handsto remove any remaining debris.5. Replace the basket in the pump by aligningthe opening with the suction pipe. If alignedproperly, the basket will drop easily into place.Do not force into place.6. Prior to replacing the lid, check for debrisaround the lid o-ring seat, as this will cause airto leak into the system. Clean the lid o-ring andplace it on the lid.7. Hand-tighten the lid to make an air tight seal.Do not use any tools to tighten the lid: hand-tighten only.8. Verify that all valves have been returned to theproper position for normal operation.9.
