Proper installation is crucial for the pump's performance and longevity. Refer to your specific filter system manual for detailed plumbing instructions.

4.1 Col·locació

• Position the pump as close to the pool as possible, below water level if feasible, to aid in self-priming.
• Ensure the pump is on a stable, level, and dry surface.
• Protect the pump from direct weather exposure (rain, snow, direct sunlight).
• Allow sufficient space around the motor for ventilation and maintenance access.

4.2 Connexions de fontaneria

• Connect the suction line from the pool skimmer/main drain to the pump's inlet (front connection).
• Connect the discharge line from the pump's outlet (top connection) to the filter system's inlet.
• Use appropriate fittings, clamps, and thread sealant (Teflon tape) to ensure watertight connections.
• Avoid kinks or sharp bends in hoses to maintain optimal flow.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

5.1 Cebament de la bomba

As a self-priming pump, the SPS 100-1 can draw water, but initial priming is recommended for faster startup:

1. Ensure all valves are open, allowing water to flow from the pool to the pump.
2. Remove the transparent lid of the pre-filter.
3. Fill the pre-filter housing completely with water.
4. Replace the lid securely, ensuring the O-ring is properly seated to prevent air leaks.
5. Turn on the pump. It should begin to draw water and expel air. If it does not prime within a few minutes, turn it off, re-check connections, and repeat the priming process.

5.2 Funcionament normal

• Once primed, the pump will continuously circulate water through your filter system.
• Monitor the pressure gauge on your filter (if applicable) to determine when backwashing or filter cleaning is needed.
• This model does not include a timer, so you will need to manually switch it on and off or connect it to an external timer (not included).
