Pump Disassembly
WARNING — Always disconnect power to the pool pump at the circuit breaker and disconnect the
communication cable before servicing the pump. Failure to do so could result in death or
serious injury to serviceman, pool users or others due to electric shock.
Read all servicing instructions before working on the pump.
WARNING — DO NOT open the strainer pot if pump fails to prime or if pump has been operating
without water in the strainer pot. Pumps operated in these circumstances may experience
a build up of vapor pressure and may contain scalding hot water. Opening the pump may
cause serious personal injury. In order to avoid the possibility of personal injury, make
sure the suction and discharge valves are open and strainer pot temperature is cool to
touch, then open with extreme caution.
CAUTION — Be sure not to scratch or mar the polished shaft seal faces; seal will leak if faces are
damaged.
