ACID PUMP HOSE INSTALLATION

The flexible inlet and outlet hoses are pre-fitted to

the pH BOSS for your convenience. These

instructions are included in case you need to change

the hoses in the future, which is part of normal wear

and tear. The tubes will need to be replaced every

two to three years, depending on pool size.

1. If the pH BOSS has been used before, remove the

drum weight from the acid drum and place into a

container of at least 1 litre of water.

Use the Manual Dose function (see page 9) to

pump 1 litre of water. This will flush the acid out

of the pump and hoses.

2. Disconnect the power from the pH BOSS.

3. Use a NEW sleeve kit. Re-using the old sleeve kit

may result in corrosive diluted acid leakage.

4. Cut the hose as required, as straight as possible.

5. Slip the Nut over the hose.

6. Slip the Sleeve onto the hose.

7. Push the Insert into the hose.

8. Push the hose and sleeve into the Tube Fitting.
