Installation and Operation
Hayward recommends installation by a qualified pool professional. Before installation, shut off the pool pump, relieve system pressure, and confirm that the plumbing is compatible with the valve.
To operate the manual valve, loosen the handle locking knob, rotate the handle to the desired position, and tighten the knob until finger-tight. The "X" marking on the handle identifies the closed port.
