• Ensure proper connection to pump suction line
• Maintain adequate clearance for basket removal

• Standard suction line connection to pump
• Typically 50mm or 63mm plumbing
• Use proper unions for easy removal
• Ensure water-tight seal with pipe jointing compound

Maintenance for Optimal Performance:

• Monitor water level in weir basket
• Check for debris accumulation
• Verify suction pressure is normal
• Listen for unusual sounds

• Empty and clean leaf trap basket
• Remove debris from basket
• Rinse basket thoroughly
• Check for any cracks or damage

• Inspect weir housing for cracks
• Verify deck collar is secure
• Check vacuum lid seal
• Inspect suction line connections

• Before winter: Clean thoroughly and drain if needed
• Before summer: Verify all connections are tight
• Check for any UV damage to plastic
• Inspect for debris accumulation

• Professional inspection recommended
• Check structural integrity
• Verify vacuum seal function
• Inspect for any wear or damage

• Clean basket weekly or more frequently in debris-heavy areas
• Keep weir area clear of obstacles
• Maintain proper water level in basket
• Check suction pressure regularly
• Monitor for debris bypass

• Allow basket to become completely blocked
• Leave debris in basket for extended periods
• Force basket removal (may damage housing)
• Ignore suction pressure changes
• Neglect regular cleaning
