Filter Removal and Installation
Removal and Installation of the Qwik Lock™ Filter
Filter Removal:
1.Hold the filter tabs of the Qwik Lock™ filter in each hand.
2.With one thumb on the Qwik Lock™ stud, which protrudes through the integrated filter plate, lift up on the filter tabs while pushing down on the stud.
3.This action will cause the filter to release from the filter cage. Slide filter off cage.
Filter Installation:
1.Carefully slide the Qwik Lock™ filter over the filter cage and press down on the outside edge of the filter until the rubber gasket on the bottom of the filter seats securely around the base of the filter cage and against the lid.
2.Align the small center hole in the top of the filter over the Qwik Lock™ stud on the filter cage. Press firmly on top of the filter near the stud to allow the filter to snap over the ball on the end of the stud. The filter is now attached.
NOTE: Failure to properly seat the bottom gasket could result in debris bypassing the filter.
!WARNING: Do not operate without filter cage and float, as they prevent liquid from entering the impeller and damaging the motor.
