2)Installing the Filter Cartridges
Remove the v-band clamp (item 6). Remove the top cover (item 3). Remove the top cover gasket (item 5) and place on a clean fl at surface
or hang on a hook. Remove the hand knob (item 2) and lift off the pressure plate (item 4). This will expose the cartridge posts (item 7).
Insert the cartridge posts into the cartridge pedestals (item 10) making sure the posts are vertical within the housing. With the cartridge
posts in place, gently slide the new fi lter cartridges over the posts and into position. CAUTION: DO NOT FORCE, JAM OR DROP IN PLACE.
This could damage the fi lter elements. Place the pressure plate over the center rod making sure the tube locators are facing down. En-
gage the locating tubes into all the fi lter cartridges. While holding the pressure plate down onto the fi lter cartridges, thread the Hand Knob
onto center rod. The knob should then be tightened hand tight.
3)Assembling the Filter Housing
After the fi lter cartridges are installed, locate the top cover gasket and completely wet it with tap water prior to installing it. Install the top
cover gasket and the top cover onto the housing. Place the v-band clamp into position over the housing fl ange and the top cover fl ange.
Be sure it is properly fi tting all around housing. Tighten clamp until the housing and cover are properly seated (hand tight). CAUTION: DO
NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Overtightening could result in a cartridge crack which may lead to fl uid leaking.
4) Starting Operation
Remove cover vent plug. Slowly and partially open the inlet valve, fi lling the housing with water. When the water begins to fl ow from the
vent, close the inlet valve and re-install the vent plug. Slowly and completely open the Inlet valve and the lower drain valve until the water
runs clear. After the water runs clear, close the lower drain valve and slowly and completely open the outlet valve. Your Aqua-Pure fi ltra-
tion system is now operating. If the fi lter housing should leak, check all connections including the cover clamping assembly and tighten
as necessary.
5) Changing the Filter Cartridges
The following procedure should be followed when changing out the cartridges and disassembling the fi lter housing. Shut off the Inlet valve.
Open the nearest faucet down stream of the fi lter housing to relieve the line pressure, leave this faucet open. Close the outlet valve. Open
the upper drain valve, the lower drain valve and the vent plug to drain all water from the housing. After the housing is drained, remove
the housing clamp, lift off the top cover, unscrew the hand knob and remove the pressure plate. For single high cartridge fi lter housings,
remove the cartridges and discard. For fi lter housings with multiple stacked cartridges, remove the top row of cartridges. The top of the
cartridge posts will now be visible, grasp each cartridge post and lift to remove any existing cartridges. Discard used cartridges in a suit-
able container. Clean all parts thoroughly and fl ush out the housing post for at least 5 minutes to remove any sediment that may have built
up during operation. Inspect the condition of the housing cover gasket and replace as necessary.
PROCEED with “Installing the fi lter cartridges,” “Assembling the fi lter housing” and “Starting Operation.”
