Before starting turn the pumps off.
Procedure:
1. Tools needed:
2. Pull the filters out by unlocking the cover:
3. Hose down the heavy dirt and debris:
4. Soak the filters in water with dishwasher detergent overnight to loosen up the dirt and debris between the fins:
5. Hose it down again until filters are clean and white:
6. Pull the screen cups out and clean it:
7. Flush out the remaining debris from the pump:
8. Check for worn out, and/or cracked O-rings and if needed, get a new replacement ring like so:
9. Install the filters by lining it up using the arrows:
10. Grease and install the new O-ring on the pump cap:
11. Line the screen cup correctly before capping it:
12. Once everything is closed up, open the pressure valve to bleed air out of the system:
13. Turn the pumps on and when it build enough pressure to shoot out a solid stream of water out of the pressure valve like so, close it up:
14. Check to make sure pressure is good on the gauge and if so, the job is complete:
