Make Connections
DANGER: Risk of electric shock. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, connect the pump only to
properly installed Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupters (GFCI). Do not remove the plug grounding
pins. Do not use grounding adapters.
Verify that the air actuator tubing is securely attached to the pump and to the air switch button in
the whirlpool. Use a small mirror and flashlight to assist you.
Make sure that the tubing is not kinked or damaged, and that the tubing slips into place on
adapters at the switch and at the pump. Make any required corrections to the air actuator tubing.
Visually inspect the whirlpool pump and piping harness for damage.
Verify that the bonding conductor is connected to the pump in accordance with the applicable
codes.
Plug the pump's electrical cord into the GFCI outlet.

on.
Verify that the pump banding straps have been cut.
