Aqua Leisure Simple-Set Pool - Manual (Page 8)

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: STRAINER & PLUNGER VALVE
( Only for pools that use pump model #SA-3768)
Note: See drawings A & B on the following page for reference.
The Aqua filter pump assembly includes two (2) strainer-control mechanisms that are to be
installed in the pool liner's two (2) pre-cut holes. The strainer grid prevents large objects
from jamming and/or damaging the filter pump and the plunger valve assembly prevents
water from flowing into the filter pump while the filter cartridge is being replaced or
cleaned. (See drawing A for overview and drawing B for strainer & plunger valve details.)
Install the strainer and plunger valve before inflating the pool liner's air ring.
1. Grasp the strainer and plunger valve mechanism.
2. In a counter-clockwise motion unscrew plunger valve union (#V28) from the threaded
strainer connector (#V02). Be careful not to lose the step rubber washer (#V05). Place
the plunger valve on the ground in a safe place.
3. In a counter-clockwise motion unscrew the strainer nut (#V04) from the threaded
connector (#V02). Leave the flat washer (#V03) on the connector (#V02).
4. From the inside of the pool liner insert the connector (#V02) into one of the pre-cut
holes with the washer (#V03) remaining on the connector to be placed against the inside
of the liner wall.
5. With the flat side of the strainer nut (#V04) facing the outside wall of the liner in a
clockwise motion screw the strainer nut (#V04) back onto the threaded connector
(#V02). Before assembly lubricate the threads with a petroleum jelly.
6. Finger tighten the strainer grid (#V01) and the strainer nut (#V04) onto the threaded
connector (#V02).
7. Grasp the plunger valve assembly. Make sure the step washer (#V05) is in place.
8. In a clockwise motion screw the plunger valve union (#V28) back onto the threaded
connector (#V02).
9. Examine the plunger valve to see if the handle is pushed fully down to the 0/1 position.
If not, then grasp the handle at the top and push down turning the handle in a clockwise
direction until the plastic protruding notch anchors in the osition. This will prevent
water from flowing out during filling.
10. Repeat steps 1 through 9 for the 2nd liner pre-cut hole.
