INSTALLATION

Electrical Connections

A separate circuit, which must be protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), is required. Install a duplex outlet to the studwall underneath the bathtub, at least 4 inches above the floor. The duplex outlet is not provided. Because these units are manufactured with a safe, convenient Magic Touch whirlpool ON/OFF switch on the bath itself, no remote switch or timer is necessary. If an optional timer is desired, one is available from Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath for 120 VAC operation.

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect only to a circuit protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter GFCI.

CAUTION: Operating the motor/pump without enough water in the bath can cause leaking and permanent damage to the pump. Before power is applied to the installation, make sure the switch is in the OFF position to avoid pump damage.

Electrical Connection 6060 With Heater

On the 6060 with integral skirt, one junction box has been provided for the pump/motor and one for the heater. To access, remove skirt access panel. See top view for location.

A separate GFCI protected outlet (not provided) is required for pump/motor and is to be installed in the junction box. The junction box is to be hard wired. The motor is bonded to the junction box at the factory.

Install a separate 120 VAC, 15 AMP dedicated circuit with GFCI protection. With a #8 solid copper wire, bond the heater to the house electrical panel or approved local bond. A bonding lug is provided on the heater.

At initial start-up and before each use thereafter with power ON, push the GFCI test button. The reset button should pop out. Push this button in to reset. If the interrupter fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground current flowing or a device malfunction, indicating the possibility of electrical shock. Turn off power and do not use the bath until the source of the problem has been identified and corrected.
