• 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.
