TECHNICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- The appliance must be supplied by a grounded power source.
- Extension cords can’t be used.
- In case of damage to the filter pump, do not use the pool.
- Do not bury cord. Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment.
- This pump is for use with storable pools only. Do not use with permanently-installed pools. A storable pool is constructed so that it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity. A permanently-installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage.
- Using the pump with an unmatched electrical supply is dangerous and will result in catastrophic failure of pump.
- When working with electricity, turn the electrical power off at the circuit breaker and lock breaker door. Failure to do so will result in increased risk of shock, injury and possibly death.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ATTACHING A BASE
EN60335-2-41 TEST standard requires the filter pump to be vertically fixed on the ground or a base made of wood or concrete before use. There should be two holes 9 mm in diameter on the base, the space between which should be 163 mm. Put filter pump on the base and attach them together by fastening the bolts and nuts. All the base parts should weigh at least over 18 kg to prevent the pump from accidentally falling.

CHOOSE THE CORRECT LOCATION
Place the Filter Pump on a solid and level ground; it must be positioned on
the same level as the base of the pool. If the Filter Pump is in an upper or
lower position than the base of the pool, the performance and life span of the
Filter Pump can be compromised. The pool and the Filter Pump have to be
positioned in an area with adequate drainage and easy access for maintenance
operations. Never place the Filter Pump in a area that may accumulate water.
