Usage & Installation Notes
Before installation, ensure the filter tank coupling sockets match the 2″ SKT slide valve ports. Align ports correctly — pump inlet, filter tank, return, and waste plumbing — per the filter manufacturer’s instructions. After installation, always turn pump off before shifting the slide valve handle to avoid damage. Use the backwash and rinse functions as part of regular maintenance to clean filter media and prolong filter life.
