Routine Maintenance

CAUTION
To avoid damage to the plastics, do not use lubricant
or sealant on the o-ring. Only soapy water should be
used to install and lubricate the o-ring.
Inspect the pump basket for debris by looking through
the clear pump lid. As debris accumulates, it will begin
to block the fl ow of water through the pump. Keep the
basket clean to improve the performance of the pump.
1. Turn off the power to the pump. If the pump is
located below the water level, close the isolation
valves on the suction and discharge sides of the
pump to prevent backfl ow of water.
2. Turn the lid's locking ring counter-clockwise until
'START' aligns with the ports. Carefully remove
the lid.
CAUTION
A misaligned basket will cause the lid to be
improperly seated, allowing an air leak, which could
result in pump damage.
3. Lift the basket out of the pump. Dispose of all
debris and thoroughly clean the basket, making
sure all the holes are open. Using a garden hose,
spray the basket from the outside to help clear the
holes. Remove any remaining debris by hand.
4. Replace the basket in the pump by aligning the
open section of the basket with the inlet pipe. If
aligned properly, the basket will drop easily into
place. Do not force it into place.
5. Remove the lid o-ring and remove debris around
the lid o-ring seat, as this will cause air leaks into
the system. Clean the lid o-ring and replace it.
NOTE Make sure the lid seal is correctly oriented.
Ensure proper seal orientation
when replacing the lid

6. Replace the lid with locking ring on the pump
housing. Align 'START' with the ports and turn
the lid's locking ring clockwise until 'LOCKED'
aligns with the ports. Hand-tighten the lid to
make an air tight seal. Do not use any tools to
tighten the lid.
7. Verify that all valves have been returned to the
proper position for normal operation.
8. Open the pressure release valve on the fi lter, and
make sure it is clean and ready for operation.
9. Turn on the power to the pump. Once all the air
has been evacuated from the fi lter, close the fi lter
pressure release valve.
5.2
The pump must be protected when freezing
temperatures are expected. Allowing the pump
to freeze will cause severe damage and void the
warranty.
Do not use antifreeze solutions in the pool,
spa, or hot tub systems! Antifreeze is highly toxic
and may damage the circulation system. The only
exception to this is Propylene Glycol. For more
information see your local pool/spa supply store or
contact a qualifi ed swimming pool service company.
1. Drain all water from the pump, system equipment,
and piping.
2. Remove the two (2) drain plugs. Store the drain
plugs in a safe location and reinstall them when
the cold weather season is over. Do not lose the
o-rings.
3. Keep the motor covered and dry. Do not cover it
with plastic, as this will create condensation and
this moisture will damage the pump.
NOTE To protect your pump, Zodiac Pool Systems,
4. When the system is reopened for operation, make
sure all piping, valves, wiring, and equipment
are in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations. Pay close attention to the fi lter
and electrical connections.
5. The pump must be primed prior to starting; refer
to "4.3 Start-up"
