(cont. other side)
Cut a hole in the spa wall for the jet.
1.
a) Cut a 3.90 diameter hole in the spa wall when using the “L” gasket design.
b) Cut a 3-3/4” diameter hole in the spa wall when using the flat gasket design.
Position the gasket on the jet body. see Figure 1.

WARNING
Before installing this product, read and follow all warning notices and instructions accompanying this product. Failure to follow
safety warnings and instructions can result in severe injury, death, or property damage.
Call (714) 384-0384 for additional free copies of these instructions.
Note
Silicone is required with the flat gasket design. Silicone is optional for use with the “L” gasket design.
Insert the jet body through the drilled hole in the spa. Make sure the gasket is flat and not crimped around the hole.
3.
Place the compensation spacer on the jet body with the flat side of the spacer against the back of spa wall.
4.
Thread the nut onto the body. The compensation spacer will center on the nut as it is tightened.
5.
a. Be sure the plumbing ports are adjusted to the desired position and tighten the nut hand-tight.
WARNING
Improper installation of the barrel assembly may cause damage to parts and leakage could occur which may cause property
damage.
Note
To remove the barrel assembly, rotate in a counter clockwise direction until it stops. Using additional force, continue to rotate
the barrel assembly past the stop while pulling it out from the body.
Torque the nut to a maximum setting of 28 foot pounds. BWG has an installation tool [P/N 940008]. for tightening the nut
6.
that is used with a customer supplied torque wrench. It can be ordered through BWG’s customer service.
Make the plumbing glue connections to the jet body. Be sure that glue is not allowed to run into the jet body.
7.
If jet is being installed vertically for volcano application, it is recommended that the grating be placed on the scallop face of
8.
the barrel assembly.
It is recommended that this jet be placed on a dedicated plumbing circuit for maximum performance. A diverter can be
9.
used to redirect the flow in many cases.
Install the barrel assembly into the jet body by inserting and rotating the barrel until it snaps into place. When snapped into
10.
place, the barrel assembly will move freely left and right to the stop without pulling out. For different flow applications, or
for pumps with less flow capabilities, place the different orifice reducers to achieve maximum performance.
WARNING
Do not over tighten as this may cause damage to parts and leakage may occur. There should be plenty of room
for the compensating ring to freely “float” as the nut is tightened. If this ring is obstructed in any way, it will lose it’s
effectiveness resulting in excessive and unequal force on the sealing flange. This may cause damage to parts and
leakage may occur.
