Troubleshooting Procedures

Remove the Jets

NOTE:

A special tool is provided with the jets that will allow you to remove them from the whirlpool.

This tool is also supplied with each trim kit.

Position the jet ball nozzle so it is pointing upward.

NOTE:

The nozzle must remain pointed up or the tool will slip off.

Insert the removal tool, hooked end up, into the opening of the jet and hook the inside top of the
nozzle.

Grasp the tool firmly and place your thumb against the whirlpool wall. Pull steadily on the tool
until the jet assembly pulls free of the hole. Be careful not to lose the O-ring.

Reinstall the Jets

NOTE:

The jet O-ring must be correctly positioned, must be lubricated, and must be in good condition to

permit easy rotation and proper operation of the jet.

Install the O-ring onto the first shoulder of the jet. Lubricate the O-ring with silicone lubricant to
prevent noisy operation of the jet.

Carefully insert the jet into the housing, and lightly push and rotate the jet until it snaps into
position. Do not force the jet.

NOTE:

When installed correctly, the jet should turn smoothly both clockwise and counterclockwise.
