BONDING AND GROUNDING 1 The motor frame must be grounded to a reliable grounding point using a solid copper conductor No 8 AWG or larger In Canada No 6 AWG or larger must be used If the pump is installed within five 5 feet of the inside walls of the swimming pool spa or hot tub the motor frame must be bonded to all metal parts of the swimming pool spa or hot tub structure and to all electrical equipment metal conduit and metal piping within five 5 feet of the inside walls of the swimming pool spa or hot tub 2 Bond the motor using the provided external lug WARNING Always disconnect the power source before working on a motor or its connected load WARNING In order to avoid the risk of property damage severe personal injury and or death make sure that the control switch time clock or control system is installed in an accessible location so that in the event of an equipment failure or loose plumbing fitting the equipment can be easily turned off CAUTION The pump must be permanently connected to a dedicated electrical circuit No other equipment lights appliances or outlets may be connected to the pump circuit with the exception of devices that may be required to operate simultaneously with the pump such as a chlorinating device or heater WARNING Motor fitted with internal auto reset May restart without warning Electrical Wiring 1 The pump motor must be securely grounded using the 10 green headed groun
3. height between the pump and water level should not be more than five 5 feet If the pump is located below water level isolation valves must be installed on both sides of the pump to prevent the back flow of pool water during any routine or required servicing The Badu EcoM3 comes equipped with unions on both the suction and discharge ports This feature simplifies installation and service and eliminates the possibility of leaks at the threaded adaptors Before starting the pump for the first time remove the see through lid Turn lid counter clockwise to remove Fill strainer tank with water until it is level with the suction inlet Replace lid making sure the o ring is not damaged Screw down hand tight Suction and discharge line should be independently supported at a point near the pump to avoid strains being placed on the pump Always use properly sized valves Use the fewest fittings as possible Each additional fitting has the effect of moving the equipment farther away from the water NOTE If more than ten 10 suction fittings are needed the pipe size must be increased Every new installation must be pressure tested according to local codes See the Pressure Testing Section on page 7 Electrical Installation 10 Electrical Installation When installing and using the motor basic safety precautions should always be followed The wiring of the motor should be done by a licensed electrician in accordance with local codes
