How do i use the plus &amp; minus settings on the pump. Can't see a dial or switch

I believe that the intake opening is the only adjustment you can do on this pump. The more it is open, the more water pressure. Hence, the higher the column of water.

There should be a sticker on the top with a plus and a minus. Turn the knob toward the plus to increase pressure or towards the minus for less pressure. When i got mine i turned it all the way to the right and then while turning it back to the right i counted the number of turns divided the total number of turns by 2 then i knew where "medium" pressure was. Hope this helps!

This pump is NON-Automatic, you will need to add the Rule-A-Matic Float Switch 35A or get the combo.Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help youThank you very much

There should be a black wire and 2 brown wires on your pump. the brown striped wire should be the auto wire, black is ground, and the brown solid wire should be the manual on. follow the instructions that came with the switch. you might not notice it working in auto as that pump is designed to check for water for 1sec every 2.5mins

Thomas - Yes, there is an on/off switch on the pump itself. It has a rubber/weather resistant switch.

I sat at my desk in the house and programed it. I have trouble seeing it where it is outside in the pump house. I can then just change the duration times as I need (still a bit hard to see). if it helps the time that first displays is always midnight

I had the same problem! Hold the center ring, in between the pump and base, then spin the pump.

You screw the pump in tight....then turn handle opposite direction to unlock. Then push handle up and down.

I don't remember exactly how I got it to open but sometimes if you turn the actually cap that usually triggers the pump to pop up or ssometimes just turning it around clock wise and counter clock wise a few times will get it to open. Just keep playing with it..Hope that helps!

Roger, There is no switch on this pump (on/off) you just plug in when you want it to run an then unplug when you are done. If you have a 14x42 or bigger pool, you would need to run the pump for 3-4 hours a day (preferrablly 2 hours in morning and then 2 hours at night) in order to keep it krystal Clear (Hope this Helps)

There is no built in timer on this unit.I had the combo unit installed for about ten years and the pump failed. I bought this one and replaced just the motor/pump portion with the new one. I did not change the plumbing at all. I did it this way because the pump unit with integral timer was more expensive. I then added a simple timer to the circuit to turn the pump on and off.Works fine.

I'm surprised that no one has pointed out the trigger start "enable" "disable" button. Switch to disable then hit start button and use without auto start and stop. Try not to run too long without water going through or it will overheat pump override. I use this when cold out so engine can warm up first. Hope this helps.

Yeah, I feel pretty sad about that too. I just bought a simple pump, the battery one, and cut off part of the medium-size connector... It seems like a little bit stupid, but it works. Hope my words can help you.:)

Hi Sandy,My 2500 filter pump has a dial on it that is numbered 1-5. One means one hour, two means two hours etc.The switch only controls the on and off function. I hope this is clear enough. We love our pump and it really is keeping our pool clean and our solar heating pad pumping warm water into the pool. I hope this helps.

Did you try adjusting the switch shut-off screw on the end of the pump. This adjusts the pressure the pump will maintain. My guess is it needs to be turned clockwise if this is the problem. There should be a manual with the unit that has troubleshooting guide.

you need a timer to turn the pump on and off for automatic or you will have to manually turn it on and off... I choose to have it on auto this is the timer the tech support guy at Hayward recommended for me and works great. Intermatic T104 208-277-Volt DPST 24 Hour Mechanical Time Switch
