6060 Booster Pump Start-Up & Operation Prior to Start-Up Page 8 of 16 WARNING - All suction and discharge valves MUST be OPEN, as well as filter manual air relief valve (if available) on filter, when starting the circulating pump system for the first time, or after servicing the system. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury. Starting the Pump: The filtration system pump must be running, and an automatic pool cleaner must be connected before starting the booster pump. If water leakage occurs from anywhere on the pump or filter, immediately turn off all system circulation pumps and all electrical power before repairing the leak. Do not return to the pump or filter until all water flow has stopped. If no leakage occurs, stand at least 10 feet from pump and/or filter and proceed with starting the pump. WARNING - Return to filter to close filter manual air relief valve when a steady stream of water (not air or air and water mix) is discharged from valve. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury. CAUTION - RISK OF EQUIPMENT DAMGAGE. Never operate the booster pump without water. Water acts as a coolant and lubricant for the mechanical shaft seal. NEVER run pump dry. Running pump dry may damage seals, causing leakage, flooding, and voids warranty. The filtration system pump must be running before the booster pump is started. It is extremely important for the booster pump to have an adequate water supply from the filtration system at all times. The booster pump is not self-priming. To ensure that there is an adequate water supply for the booster pump: • open any valves at the inlet and outlet of the booster pump before operation. • set all filtration system valves in a manner that does not deprive the booster pump of water during operation. • do not operate the booster pump without a pressure cleaner connected to the system. • set time clocks such that the booster pump only operates when the filtration system is on. • clean filtration system regularly to prevent flow restrictions. CAUTION - RISK OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE. Do NOT add chemicals to pool/spa system directly in front of pump suction. Adding undiluted chemicals may damage pump and voids warranty. If filtration system pump is to be turned off for any reason, then the booster pump must be turned off before turning off the filtration system pump. NOTE - If the 6060 booster pump is used to replace the booster pump in an existing pressure cleaner installation, then the cleaner operating pressure should be reset according to the cleaner manufacturer's recommended procedure.
