CONVERTING THE SPA TO A 240 VOLT
POWER SOURCE
The hydrotherapy spa is designed to operate with
either a 120v or 240v power source. For your conve-
nience, it is shipped ready to be plugged directly into
a 120v/15 amp home outlet.
However, you can greatly improve the performance of
the spa by converting the spaÕs power supply to
receive power from a 240v power source. If the spa is
converted, it must be wired directly into a 240v GFCI
in your home by a qualified electrician.
You will need to call our Customer Service
Department toll-free at 1-800-999-3756, Monday
through Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Mountain Time
(excluding holidays) to receive a free instruction
guide which explains the conversion procedure.
WARNING: Only a qualified electrician should per-
form the conversion procedure.
CHECKING AND CLEANING THE FILTER
The filter should be checked periodically for build-up
of dirt and oil. To check or clean the filter, it is neces-
sary to remove the basket and the two filter car-
tridges from the filter housing.
Removing and Cleaning the Basket:
1. Turn off the power.
2. Pull the weir door towards you until it is fully
open.
3. Reach into the basket with four fingers and pull
the basket towards you until it snaps free.
4. Lift the basket out of the housing by pulling on
the handle on the far side and turning the basket
towards you.
5. Clean the basket by spraying it with a garden
hose or holding it under a faucet. Note: Avoid
hitting the basket against objects to clean it,
since this may break the basket.
6. Put the basket back into the housing and press
down until it snaps into place.
7. Close the weir door.
Removing and Cleaning the Filter Cartridges:
1. Follow steps one through four above to remove
the basket.
2. Reach into the housing and turn the valve on the
diverter until it is fully open.
3. Stick two fingers into the holes in the diverter and
lift the diverter and the top filter cartridge directly
upwards until the edge of the diverter clears the
housing. Then turn the diverter towards you and
pull it out. In this process, the diverter may come
out of the filter cartridge. If so, reach into the
housing and lift the filter cartridge out.
4. Lift the lower filter cartridge out of the housing.
5. Clean the filter cartridges with a garden hose or
under a faucet. Spray from top to bottom of each
pleat. Note: To avoid damage to the car-
tridges, do not use a brush to clean them.
6. To remove body oils or sun tan lotions, soak the
cartridges in a cleaning solution which can be
obtained from a pool and spa supply store.
7. Inspect the filter cartridges for damage. Replace
the cartridge if there is any sign of damage.
8. Put one filter cartridge back in the filter housing.
9. Push the tube on the diverter into the other filter
cartridge as far as it will go. Place the top filter
cartridge back in the housing.
10. Put the basket back into the housing and press
down until it snaps into place. Close the weir
door.
ADJUSTING THE FILTER DIVERTER
The diverter regulates the flow of water to the filter in
order to make the pump run smoothly. Start by leav-
ing the valve wide open. If the pump runs smoothly,
no further adjustment will be necessary.
If the pump begins to cavitate (if you hear a cracking
sound or if the speed of the pump surges up and
down), turn the valve slightly to reduce water flow.
Keep adjusting the valve in small increments until the
pump runs smoothly.
