WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, do not permit children to use this
product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect only to a grounding type receptacle.
This product is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter. If replacement of the plug is needed,
use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING: The unit is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). To test
the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button.Power
should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI
interrupts power to the pump without the test button being pushed, a ground current is flowing,
indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this pump. Disconnect the pump and have
the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
CAUTION - To reduce the risk of electric shock the pool must be installed no closer than
6 feet (1.8 m) from any electrical outlet. Do not place portable appliances closer than 5 feet (1.5 m)
from the pool.
WARNING: The pump is not intended to be bonded to the equipotential bonding grid.
DO NOT BURY CORD. Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and
other equipment.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, the supply cord cannot be replaced. If
the cord is damaged the appliance should be scrapped.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use extension cord to connect
unit to electric supply; provide a properly located outlet.
CAUTION - This pump is for use with storable pools only. Do not use with
permanently-installed pools. A storable pool is constructed so that it is capable of being readily
disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity. A permanently-installed pool is
constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage.
CAUTION - For continued protection against possible electric shock this unit is to
bemounted to the base in accordance with the installation instructions.
IMPORTANT - Using the pump with an unmatched electrical supply is dangerous
and will result in catastrophic failure of pump.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - When working with electricity, turn the electrical power off at the
circuit breaker and lock breaker door. Failure to do so will result in increased risk of shock, injury
and possibly death.
DO NOT REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG OR MODIFY THE PLUG IN ANY WAY. DO NOT
USE ADAPTOR PLUGS. Consult a qualified electrician for any questions related to the validity of
your plugs grounding. Handle the pump with care. Do not pull or carry the pump by the power cord.
Never pull a plug from the outlet by yanking the power cord. Keep cord free from abrasions. Sharp
objects, oil, moving parts, and heat should never be exposed to the filter pump.
NOTE: Please examine equipment before use. Notify Bestway at the customer service
address listed on this manual for any manufacturing defect or missing parts at the time of purchase.
Verify that the equipment components represent the filter pump model that you had intended to
purchase.
NOTE: Place pump on a solid and level ground. Pay attention to position of pool and pump
so adequate ventilation, drainage, and access for cleaning is available. Never place pump in an area
that may accumulate water, or in an area where foot traffic will flow around the pool.
NOTE: Atmospheric conditions may affect the performance and life span of your filter pump.
Unnecessary wear and tear may occur during periods of cold, heat and exposure to sun. Whenever
possible shelter the pump from these conditions.
NOTE: Do not add chemicals in the filter pump.
NOTE: Assembly and disassembly of this product should only be performed by adults.

GFCI WARNING
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. The GFCI must be tested before each use.
WARNING: Before inserting plug into a power outlet, make sure the current rate of the power outlet is suitable
for the pump.
WARNING: Do not use the pump if this test fails. For assistance, please visit the support section on our website,
www.bestwaycorp.com.
IMPORTANT: To prevent the risk of electrical shock, ensure your hands are completely dry when plugging-in
the Filter Pump.
IMPORTANT: Do not dry run the filter pump. Make sure both the pool’s Inlet and Outlet valves are fully
covered by water before operating the Filter Pump.
