TO AVOID THIS POTENTIAL HAZARD, FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS. 1. Open the High F1owTM manual air relief valve until it snaps into the full open position (this only requires a quarter turn counterclockwise). Opening this valve rapidly releases air trapped in the filter. 2. Stand clear of the filter tank, then start the pump. 3. Close the High F1owTM manual air relief valve after a steady stream of water appears. 4. The system is not working properly if either of the following conditions occur. a. A solid stream of water does not appear within 30 seconds, after the pump's inlet basket fills with water. b. The pressure gauge indicates pressure before water outflow appears. If either condition exists, shut off the pump immediately, open valves in the water return line to relieve pressure, and clean the air relief valve, see Section F. Cleaning the High FIOWTM manual air relief valve. If the problem persists, call (800) 831-7133 for assistance. D. CLEANING THE FILTER Filter Tank Top _ Lock Ring Filter Tank Body 90 Figure 2. OWARNING The following information should be read carefully since it outlines the proper manner of care and operation for your filter system. As a result of following these instructions and taking the necessary preventative care, you can expect maximum efficiency and life from your filter system. OCAUTION Please heed all manufacturers' posted instructions, warnings and cautions when using Baquacil® or Baqua® Clean. 1. Turn the pump off, shut off any automatic controls to ensure that the system is not inadvertently started during servicing. P/N 178556 4 Rev. D 6-26-09 2. Open the filter High F1owTM manual air relief valve, (and the waste drain valve, or cap, if your system has one). NOTE Special care must be taken when cleaning cartridge element used in a swimming pool or spa using Baquacil® as a sanitizer. Because of the way Baquacil® works, the cartridge element must be cleaned more thoroughly and more frequently than in a chlorine system. If extreme care is not taken to completely remove all residue from the cartridge element, a buildup will occur. This buildup will significantly shorten the life of the cartridge element. Baquacil® is a mild coagulant which combines acterial cells as well as other small particles contributed by the environment, bathers, etc. into particles large enough to be trapped by the filter. In comparison with all other trapped contaminants in a typical pool or spa the amount of bacterial cells that are deposited on the filter is minimal. The resulting deposit is a gray sticky film which can only be removed with Baq jall Clean. If TSP or any TSP type cleaner is used prior to stripping the film, the cleaner and the gray film will combine to form a gum -like substance. Once this occurs, the substance cannot be removed from the media and the cartridge element must be replaced. 3. Remove hair and lint strainer pot lid; and clean basket. Replace basket and secure lid. 4. Disconnect air relief drain hose if in talled. 5. Remove locking ring by depressing remove tank lid. 6. Remove the element assembly by p assembly. 7. Remove the cartridge element from 8. Using a garden hose with a nozzle, accumulated foreign matter. Water element for thorough cleaning. 9. Turn the cartridge element over sev thoroughly. 10. Clean and remove debris from body. latches on both sides of ring and rotate counterclockwise, then hands in lifting handles and pulling straight up on the element center support tube. A water spray at the cartridge element to dislodge and wash away be sprayed at the outside as well as the inside of the cartridge times during the washing operation to clean the media the filter tank and from the O-ring and O-ring groove on the tank 11. Replace clean cartridge element on s4zpport tube and install assembly into the filter tank body, aligning the arrow on the support tube with the inlet port of the filter, making sure it is fully seated. Make sure the internal air relief screen is attached to the top of the element support tube. 12. Replace the tank lid onto the tank body making sure it is fully and firmly seated on the tank body. 13. Place lock ring over tank lid, and centering the lock ring on the threads of the tank body, turn the lock ring clockwise until the safety latchles click and the lock ring hits the stops on the body. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OVER -TIGHTEN 1HE LOCK RING AFTER LOCK RING HAS HIT THE STOPS ON THE BODY. NOTE Any time the filter tank is opened, and/or element assembly is removed, be sure to generously coat the 0-ring with silicone lubricant before reassembling the unit. DO NOT USE PETROLEUM BASED LUBRICANTS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A DETERIORATING EFFECT ON RUBBER. 14. Replace drain cap and reinstall High I'j lowTM manual air relief valve drain hose if used. E. REPLACING CARTRIDGE Cartridge element life will vary with pool conditions such as bather load, wind, dust, etc. You can expect an average media life of three (3) years under normal conditions. 1. To replace cartridge element follow steps in section D, Cleaning the Filter. Rev. D 6-26-09 1 5 P/N 178556 F. CLEANING THE HIGH FLOWTM MANUAL AIR RELIEF VALVE 1. Turn the pump off and shut off any automatic controls to ensure that the system is not inadvertently started during servicing. 2. OPEN THE HIGH FLOWTM MANUAL AIR RELIEF VALVE UNTIL IT SNAPS INTO THE FULL OPEN POSITION, THEN WAIT UNTIL ALL PRESSURE IS RELIEVED. 3. With the relief valve attached to the filter tank, pull out the locking tabs and remove the valve stem and cover assembly with a counterclockwise and lifting motion,1 see Figure 3. 4. Clean debris from the valve stem and body. Verify that the filter tank's air passage is open by inserting a 5/16 in. drill bit through the valve body. Verify that the 0-ring are in good condition, properly positioned, and lubricated with a silicone base lubricant. 5. Reinstall the valve stem and cover assembly with a downward and clockwise motion until it snaps into position. SECTION III. TROUBLESHOOTING A. Air entering your filter is dangerous and 'can cause the lid to blow off. Correct any conditions in your filtration system that allow air to enter the system. 1. Some common ways to identify air entering the system: a. Low water level in pool or spa - skimmer is starving for water with pump running. Add water to pool or spa. b. Air bubbles or low water level in,l pump hair and lint pot are caused by; low water level, clogged skimmer basket, split suction cleaner hose, leak in pump hair and lint pot lid, or leak in pump suction line. c. Air bubbles coming out of water 'return - lines into pool or spa with pump running, see items La and Lb of this section. d. Air is discharged from the air relief valve on top of the filter when the valve is opened with the pump running, see items La and Lb of this section, above. B. Until the water initially put into the pool has been completely filtered, short filter cycles in between cleanings are normal. In most cases pool owners are dismayed by the undesirable color and appearance of water in a newly filled pool. Plaster dust can be responsible for short filter cycles, requiring frequent cleaning. C. If pressure drops on gauge, check skimmer basket and pump basket first for debris. If the baskets are clean, shut off power to pump and turn off any automatic controls. Then turn motor shaft with your fingers. If it turns freely then the pump must be disassembled and the impeller checked to see if it is clogged. If it is not frozen or clogged then there is an obstruction in the line between the pool and the pump. D. The pressure gauge is an important part of the filter system. It is your primary indicator of how the system is operating. Maintain your pressure gauge in good working order. Check the operation of your pressure gauge in the following mannerl 1. The pressure gauge should go to zero (0) when the system is turned off and pressure is relieved. 2. The pressure gauge should indicate pressure when the system is operating. 3. The pressure gauge should be readable and not damaged in any way. 4. Replace the pressure gauge if it is not meeting the requirements of items D.1 through D.2 of this section, above.
