WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK – The pump cannot be used while people are inside the pool.
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
WARNING – RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect only to a grounding-type receptacle. This product is provided with a ground-fault circuit interrupter. If replacement of the plug is needed, use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING: The unit is provided with a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the pump without the test button being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this pump. Disconnect the pump and have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of electric shock the pool must be installed no closer than 6 feet (1.8 m) from any electrical outlet. Do not place portable appliances closer than 5 feet (1.5 m) from the pool.
WARNING: The pump is not intended to be bonded to the equipotential bonding grid.
DO NOT BURY CORD. Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace the damaged cord immediately. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use an extension cord to connect the unit to the electric supply; provide a properly located outlet.
CAUTION – 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.
CAUTION – For continued protection against possible electric shock this unit is to be mounted to the base in accordance with the installation instructions.
IMPORTANT – Using the pump with an unmatched electrical supply is dangerous and will result in catastrophic failure of the pump.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK – When working with electricity, turn the electrical power off at the circuit breaker and lock the breaker door. Failure to do so will result in an increased risk of shock, injury, and possibly death.
DO NOT REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG OR MODIFY THE PLUG IN ANY WAY. DO NOT USE ADAPTOR PLUGS. Consult a qualified electrician for any questions related to the validity of your plugs grounding. Handle the pump with care. Do not pull or carry the pump by the power cord. Never pull a plug from the outlet by yanking the power cord. Keep cord free from abrasions. Sharp objects, oil, moving parts, and heat should never be exposed to the filter pump.
NOTE: Please examine equipment before use. Notify Bestway at the customer service address listed on this manual for any manufacturing defect or missing parts at the time of purchase. Verify that the equipment components represent the filter pump model that you had intended to purchase.

NOTE: Place pump on solid and level ground. Pay attention to the position of pool and pump so adequate ventilation, drainage, and access for cleaning is available. Never place pump in an area that may accumulate water, or in an area where foot traffic will flow around the pool.
NOTE: Atmospheric conditions may affect the performance and life span of your filter pump. Unnecessary wear and tear may occur during periods of cold, heat and exposure to sun. Whenever possible shelter the pump from these conditions.
NOTE: Do not add chemicals in the filter pump.
NOTE: Assembly and disassembly of this product should only be performed by adults.

FAQs

How can I install the connection valve to Bestway’s Hydrium Pools?

The connection valve has to be installed in the holes on the steel wall. Before installing the connection valve, fill the pool with water until it’s 20 cm (9 in.) lower than the hole on the steel wall and cut the liner following the instructions in the User Manual.

How do I connect the pump to the pools with 2 connections (A-B), with a connection valve?

1. Connect the hoses to the port B of the filter pump, then conncet to port B of pool. 2. Connect the hoses to the port A of the filter pump, then connect to port A of pool. 3. Open the connection valves to let water to flow. 4. Before starting the filter pump, open the purge valve to purge all residual air inside the filter pump.

How do I connect the pump to the pools with 3 connections (A-B-B), with a connection valve?

1. Connect the hoses to port B of the pool, then connect the T-connect to the hoses. 2. Connect the hoses to port B and port A of the filter pump. 3. Connect the port A of filter pump to port A of the pool. 4. Open the connection valves to let water to flow. 5. Before starting the filter pump, open the purge valve to purge all residual air inside the filter pump.

How do I perform the air purge operation?

To perform the the air purge operation, follow these steps: First step: after connecting the hoses, remove the plug and install the debris screen or open the connection valves. Second step: open the purge valve located on the top cover. The air will flow out until the water flows out. Third step: close the purge valve tightly to avoid leakage. Fourth step: plug in the filter pump, and it is ready to work. IMPORTANT: this operation must be repeated every time you perform any maintance operation.

Why does the pump have to be under the water level?

The filter pump/sand filter is designed to be positioned on the ground. If the filter pump/sand filter is positioned at (or above) the water level, the motor will work without water. This will cause the filter pump/sand filter to be damaged.

Will this work with a summer waves quickset 10ft ring pool?

As long as the pool can with 300-15, 200 gal pools you should be fine.

How long are the hoses ?

Not 100% sure but believe they are 5 ft.

Does it come with the 1 1/4 adapter

It comes with everything to switch out the hoses for the pool

Dose this pump come with fliter

How loud is this pump?

Not any louder than other pool pumps. Mine works great.

how can i get my filter cap to stop leaking?

Replace the rubber o-ring so it seals
