MAINTENANCE
1. Before emptying your pool for long term storage, or relocation, be sure the water is
directed towards an acceptable drain water receptacle away from the house. Check local
regulations for specific directions regarding disposal of swimming pool water.
2. Switch off the unit, and disconnect power cord from electrical outlet.
3. When the pool is empty, disconnect all hoses from pump and plunger valves and
remove the strainers/plunger valves from the pool wall.
4. In a counter clockwise motion unscrew the drain valve cap (9) from the drain valve to
thoroughly drain the tank. The drain valve is located at the bottom of the filter tank.
5. Disassemble the pump motor from the tank base.
6. Leave sand filter pump pieces and hoses outside to thoroughly air dry.
