Super Pump ™ Series __________ Pump Mounting (cont'd) _____ Page 6 of 15 WARNING - Hazardous Pressure. Pumps, filters, and other equipment/ components of a swimming pool filtration system operate under pressure. Incorrectly installed and/or improperly tested filtration equipment and/or components may fail resulting in injury and/or property damage. Plumbing Use Teflon tape to seal threaded connections on molded plastic components. All plastic fittings must be new or thoroughly cleaned before use. NOTE - Do NOT use Plumber's Pipe Dope as it may cause cracking of the plastic components. When applying Teflon tape to plastic threads, wrap the entire threaded portion of the male fitting with one to two layers of tape. Wind the tape clockwise as you face the open end of the fitting, beginning at the end of the fitting. The pump suction and outlet ports have molded-in thread stops. Do NOT attempt to force hose connector fitting past this stop. It is only necessary to tighten fittings enough to prevent leakage. Tighten fitting by hand and then use a tool to engage fitting an additional 1 ½ turns. Use care when using Teflon tape as friction is reduced considerably; do NOT over-tighten fitting or you may cause damage. If leaks occur, remove connector, clean off old Teflon tape, re-wrap with one to two additional layers of Teflon tape, and re-install connector. Fittings Fittings restrict flow. For better efficiency, use the fewest possible fittings (but at least two suction outlets). Avoid fittings that could cause an air trap. Pool and spa fittings MUST conform to the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) standards. Use a non-entrapping suction fitting in pool (multiple drains) or double suction (skimmer and main drain). Electrical WARNING - All wiring must be done by a licensed electrician and must conform to all local and national codes and regulations. WARNING - Ground and bond motor before connecting to electrical power supply. Failure to ground and bond pump motor can cause serious or fatal electrical shock hazard. WARNING - Do NOT ground to a gas supply line. WARNING - To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock, turn OFF power to motor before working on electrical connections. WARNING - Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) tripping indicates electrical problem. If GFCI trips and won't reset, consult electrician to inspect and repair electrical system. WARNING - Fire Hazard. Match supply voltage to motor nameplate voltage. Insure that the electrical supply available agrees with the motor's voltage, phase, and cycle, and that the wire size is adequate for the H.P. (KW) rating and distance from the power source. NOTE - All electrical wiring MUST be performed by a licensed electrician, and MUST conform to local codes and NEC regulations. Use copper conductors only.
