3. 操作手順

The multi-port valve controls the filter's operation. Always turn off the pump before changing the valve position to prevent damage.

3.1. Valve Positions

• フィルター： Normal filtration mode. Water flows through the filter media and returns to the pool.
• バックウォッシュ： Cleans the filter media by reversing water flow. Water is discharged through the waste line.
• リンス： Used after backwashing to settle the filter media and flush out any remaining debris from the waste line.
• 廃棄物/排水: Bypasses the filter, sending water directly to the waste line. Useful for vacuuming heavy debris or lowering pool water level.
• 循環： フィルターをバイパスし、水をプールに直接循環させます。ろ過を必要とせず、薬剤を散布するのに便利です。
• 休業： Shuts off all flow to the filter and pool. Use for pump maintenance or when the filter is not in use.

3.2.初期起動

1. Ensure the filter is filled with sand and all connections are secure.
2. マルチポートバルブを「BACKWASH」の位置に設定します。
3. ポンプをオンにして、2 ～ 3 分間、またはサイト グラス (ある場合) 内の水が透明になるまで逆洗浄します。

1. ポンプをオフにします。
2. マルチポートバルブを「BACKWASH」に設定します。
3. Turn on the pump and backwash until the water in the sight glass runs clear (typically 2-3 minutes).
4. ポンプをオフにします。

In colder climates, proper winterization is essential to prevent freeze damage.

• Drain all water from the filter tank by opening the drain valve.
• Remove the manometer and store it in a warm, dry place.
• Set the multi-port valve handle between two positions (e.g., between "FILTER" and "CLOSED") to relieve pressure on the internal seal.
• Disconnect all plumbing and store pipes if necessary.
