2. Pozitionare: Place the filter system on a firm, level surface near your pool, ensuring it is protected from direct weather exposure if possible.
3. Umpleți cu nisip: Ensure the drain plug is closed. Fill the filter tank with approximately 15 kg of quartz filter sand (grain size 0.7-1.2 mm). Ensure the standpipe inside the tank is centered during filling.
4. Assemble Valve Head: Attach the 7-way valve head to the top of the filter tank. Ensure the O-ring is correctly seated. The large clamp that secures the lid can be challenging to fit; applying a very light coat of Vaseline to the clamping surfaces can aid in sliding it over the flange.

• Clătiți: Used after backwashing to settle the sand and flush any remaining dirt to waste.
• Circula: Bypasses the filter, circulating water directly back to the pool. Useful for distributing chemicals without filtering.
• Spalare in contra-spalare: Reverses water flow through the filter to clean the sand bed, sending dirty water to waste. Perform when manometer pressure rises by 0.2-0.3 bar above normal operating pressure.
• Închis: Shuts off all flow to the filter. Use when cleaning the pump's pre-cleaner basket or performing other maintenance.
• Gol: Drains water directly from the pool to waste, bypassing the filter.
• Iarnă: Position for winter storage, allowing water to drain from the valve.

Funcționare cu temporizator: The integrated timer allows you to set automatic operating cycles. Refer to the control panel for setting specific run times (e.g., 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 24 hours).
