The manuals that came with your pool will give you intex recommendations for run time on the pump. You have a cartridge filter so no back washing. You will need to clean or replace your filters when flow is reduced, you have no gauge to monitor either.
One of the problems I had with the Intex cartridge filter was with the Intex filters it didn't really keep my pool clean. When I upgraded to the Unicell cartridges, flow diminished way too fast and constantly cleaning filters is not my idea of a good time. Spend a couple weeks figuring out the Intex cartridge filter sucks. Then if you've got an extra 200 ish bucks get the Intex sand filter and enjoy it.
