OPERATION

Risk of electrical shock. Can burn or cause death. Do not handle pump or pump motor with wet hands or when standing on wet or damp surface, or in water. Disconnect power from pump before handling, servicing, or attempting to repair pump.

NOTE: The power cord for this pump is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). The GFCI will shut down the pump in the event of leakage of electrical current from the pump motor or cord to ground. If the pump does not respond when plugged in, unplug it, reset the GFCI (push the RESET button on the plug) and plug it in again. If it still doesn’t respond, make sure that the circuit breaker for the branch cir- cuit is in the ‘on’ position (closed). if the circuit breaker is closed and the pump doesn’t respond, consult a licensed elec- trician. DO NOT TRY TO MODIFY the cord or plug, and do not remove the GFCI.

The Electronic Pool Cover Pump is fully automatic in operation. The “smart” controller starts the pump every

2-1/2 minutes and causes it to run for 5 seconds. If it senses that there is no water to the pump, it stops. If it senses water, it continues to run until the water is pumped down to 1/4" deep, and then it stops. It then goes into a 7-minute quick-detection cycle, starting 4 times the first minute, twice the second minute, and once a minute for the next 5 minutes. If by the last check it has not detected water, it resumes its cycle (run- ning 5 seconds every 2-1/2 minutes) until it senses water again.

NOTICE: When you plug the pump into the outlet, it will start and run for 5 seconds. It will then cycle as described above.

If the unit is put in the water and started, interrupting the water flow into the pump during the 5-second water-sensing run will cause it to wait 2-1/2 minutes before restarting.

1.The motor is equipped with an automatically resetting thermal overload protector. If the motor gets too hot, the overload protector will stop the motor before it is dam- aged. When the motor has cooled sufficiently, the overload protector will reset itself and the motor will restart.

NOTICE: If the overload protector stops the pump repeated- ly, disconnect the power from the pump and check it to find the problem. Low voltage, clogged impeller, too much back pressure in the discharge hose (as when pumping through 50’ (15 M) of coiled hose), or extended running of pump with no load, can all cause overheating.

2.The water being pumped cools the motor, allowing the pump to run continuously at any depth of water above 1/4". However, if the motor overload stops the pump, allow it to cool for one hour before restarting. The motor will not restart before the overload has cooled.

LOCKED ROTOR

1.If the pump tries to start and senses that the rotor is locked, it will shut off, wait 2-1/2 minutes, and try to restart.

2.If the rotor has unlocked, the pump will resume normal operation. If the rotor is still locked, the pump will shut off again and wait through another 2-1/2 minute cycle.

3.After 2-1/2 minutes, the pump will again try to start. If the rotor has unlocked, the pump will resume normal opera- tion. If the rotor is still locked, the pump will shut off and will not restart automatically.

4.To restart the pump manually, unplug it and plug it in again.

5.If the rotor is still locked, UNPLUG THE PUMP, remove the base, shield, and screen, and clean out the rotor.

Risk of dangerous or fatal electrical shock. Disconnect the pump from the power source before disassembling the pump or cleaning out the rotor.

6.See Page 4 for important information about the alignment of the screen and shield when you reassemble them. Note that the pump will not operate correctly if these parts are not correctly installed.

7.Once you have reassembled the pump, reset it on the pool cover and plug it in again to resume normal operation.

AIRLOCKS

When a pump airlocks, it runs but does not move any water. An airlock will cause the pump to overheat and fail. This pump has an anti-airlock hole in the bottom of the pump body. If you suspect an airlock, unplug the pump, clean out the anti-airlock hole with a paper clip or piece of wire, and restart the pump.

NOTICE: If the outlet of the discharge hose is submerged you must have a 1/8" hole in the discharge hose to prevent airlock. This hole must be open to air.

NOTICE: If you move the pump or the pump airlocks, be sure to drain the hose before trying to restart the pump.
