• After each testing, adjust the

dial up by 1/2 increment if the

free chlorine reading has dropped

below 1.0 ppm or adjust down

by 1/2 increment if the reading

has risen above 3.0 ppm.

Continue this process each day until the reading stabilizes
between 1.0 and 3.0 ppm.

Start-up and Operation

• Do not add shock in or near the skimmer or into the Cycler
as it could damage equipment, risk potential explosion or
discolor your pool surface.

• Add a stabilizer or conditioner to
the pool at the beginning of the
season if the stabilizer level is below
20 ppm. This will prevent chlorine
burn off. Follow manufacturer’s
directions carefully.

• When chlorine reading is
down to 1.0 ppm, which may
take a few days, insert pac
into cycler.

Dial settings based on 1.5 ppm. * Bypass installation recommended.

• For the first week test the
pool water daily for free
chlorine to ensure correct dial
setting. Continue to test
weekly throughout the season.
Test strips recommended.

Shock pool every two weeks or as

needed to maintain water quality. Follow
label directions on the shock treatment
used.

Do not add shock in or near the skimmer

or into the Cycler as it could damage
equipment, risk potential explosion or
discolor your pool surface.

Remember to adjust dial by 1/2 increments only in order

to prevent over chlorination which may bleach pool
surfaces.

• Set control dial by matching up the parameters
of your pool on the chart below. THIS IS A STARTING
POINT ONLY and may need to be adjusted to fit

your individual pool needs. See #5 for below for adjusting
directions. IMPORTANT: Pump run times less than 8
hours could result in under chlorination due to inadequate
flow through the System.

• Shock the pool with chlorine to rid
the water of all contaminants before
beginning

.

Follow manufacturer's

directions carefully.

• This step is very important to
start-up. Use chlorine shock only.
