THESE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON THE SAFE, PROPER AND ECONOMICAL
OPERATION OF THE SWIMMING POOL FILTERS. STRICT OBSERVATION OF THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WILL HELP

WORKING LIFE OF THE PRODUCT.
Section 1
GENERAL INFORMATION
Check carton for any evidence of damage due to rough handling in shipment. If carton or any filter components are damaged, notify
the carrier immediately.
This manual contains critical safety information that must be provided to the end user. Failure to read and to follow
instructions could result in serious personal injury and/or major property damage.
This filter operates under pressure and if assembled improperly or operated with air in the water circulation system,
the top cap (Triton®) or top valve (Tagelus®) can separate, blowing off, which may result in an accident causing
property damage or serious bodily injury.
Keep safety labels in good condition and replace if missing or illegible.
Failure to operate your filter system or inadequate filtration can cause poor visibility in your pool. This can result in
serious personal injury or drowning as a consequence of diving into turbid water or on top of obscured objects
Please note that a filter removes organic matter and does not sanitize the pool. The pool water must be sanitized
and the water must be balanced for sparkling clear water.
Filters should never be tested or subjected to air or gas under pressure. All gases are compressible and
constitute a serious hazard when under pressure. Severe injury or property damage could occur if the filter is
subjected to air or gas pressure.
Operating at excessive vacuum levels can cause the vessel to crack and could cause property damage.
To prevent damage to the equipment and possible injury, always turn the pump off before changing the valve position.
Always visually inspect the filter components during normal servicing to ensure structural safety. Replace any item
that is cracked, deformed or otherwise visually defective. Defective filter components can allow the filter top or
attachments to be blown off and could cause severe injury or property damage.
Triton® : Use care when installing the cap. The cap should turn freely in the filter, if resistance to insertion of the cap
is felt, then slowly remove the cap by turning counter-clockwise. The starting thread of the tank and cap must engage
properly in order to close the cap securely. Do not cross-thread the cap. Failure to install the cap properly can cause the
cap to be blown off and could cause severe personal injury and/or property damage. Never attempt to tighten or
²loosen the cap while the pump is running. Failure to follow this instruction can result in the cap blowing off and causing
severe injury and/or property damage. Failure to position the automatic breather vent correctly inside the cap will
allow excessive trapped air to accumulate in the filter. Trapped air and failure to close the cap properly can cause
the cap to be blown off and could cause severe injury and/or property damage.
