B. Safety Precautions
Before installing or operating your pool pump, please review the following safety precautions:

The area should be dry and well-ventilated to prevent overheating.
Place the pump on a stable surface to avoid vibration and noise.
Piping Connections
Follow these steps to connect the piping effectively:
Ensure all piping is supported independently to avoid pressure on the pump's connections.
Use appropriate fittings and sealants for watertight joints.
Connect the suction line to the front of the pump and the discharge line to the top.
