For Proper Performance

1) Run Pump for at least 6 hours per day at high speed (at least 40 gpm).

If the pump will run on low speed 24 hours per day or less than 6 hours per day on high speed, you must bleed the air while the pump is on by unscrewing both cycler cap knobs until water appears. Then screw the knobs back on. Repeat this process each time the cycler caps are removed for any reason.

2) Install system with a minimum 4 psi back pressure.

Lower back pressure could result in under chlorination. Adjust eye ball fittings in the return jets to a smaller size to increase back pressure. Contact King Technology at 800-222-0169 for a cap tapped for a pressure gauge to determine back pressure at pool start-up.

Special Installation

Water flow is higher than 80 gpm.
