TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM SOLUTION
• SPLASHER
does not move
• SPLASHER
moves very slowly
Has the lter been backwashed recently? Ensure that your pool’s ltration
system is operating in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and
provides sufcient suction.
Check all baskets for debris (pump and weir baskets).
Check that the diaphragm is clear of all debris.
Check the SPLASHER diaphragm for wear and tear, and if worn, replace
the diaphragm.
Ensure there are no leaks in the hoses by lifting hoses out of water. Air
bubbles noticeable at the return line also indicate a suction leak.
Check the outer tube / outer extension pipe for excessive clearance +- 2mm.
Excessive clearance will cause the SPLASHER to have running/stopping
problems.
Is the sand in the lter older than +- 3 years? Filter cartridge may need to be
changed or cleaned. To check this put the lter on ‘bypass’. If the SPLASHER
works while lter is on bypass consider changing the sand.
Is the vacuum lid sitting ush in the weir? Replace vacuum lid if damaged.
• Suction Check that there is sufcient suction In your pool’s ltration system and that it
is operating in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. If necessary,
backwash the lter to improve the water ow and increase the suction.
If there is strong suction, ensure that your ow control valve is functioning
correctly. The ow control valve should be adjusted if necessary so that there
is strong water ow through the ow control valve, and reduce bypass ow.
Ensure there are no leaks in the hoses, and that they are connected properly.
• SPLASHER
moves a short
distance then stops
Refer to the solutions listed for ‘SPLASHER does not move’.
Outer tube or outer extension pipe extension pipe might be worn out.
Pump suction may be too strong and cause unit to stick to the oor. To rectify
this adjust the flow through the SPLASHER by adjusting the flow control
valve so that the gate opens more easily to bypass water. Normal setting is
between 2 and 4.
• SPLASHER
falls on its side
Check if the oat is lled with water.
Check that the outer extension pipe can rotate freely.
PROBLEM SOLUTION
• SPLASHER
gets stuck in a
particular place
Adjust the hose length by either adding or removing a hose.
Ensure that the aimow nozzle is not interfering with the movement of the
SPLASHER. If so, adjust the aimow nozzle to direct the ow away from the
unit.
If the problem persists, attach The Easy-Out Jogger on the rst hose and
insert an aimow diverter ball in the aimow nozzle.
NOTE: The Easy-Out Jogger helps to get your SPLASHER out of difcult
corners. It can be tted between the 2nd and 3rd hose length, small side
facing the weir and the bigger side facing the cleaner. The Easy-out Jogger
cone will oat on top of the water.
• SPLASHER
does not sink
Ensure there is no air trapped in the hoses or unit.
Ensure that the SPLASHER has Its weight in the unit.
• SPLASHER
does not climb wall
Ensure that the baskets and cleaner are free of debris so that there is
maximum water ow and backwash the lter.
Ensure adequate suction. Adjust the ow control valve settings to a higher
setting. This increases the suction ow through the pool pump.
Sand or lter cartridge may need to be changed or backwashed.
Is the Disc curling at the edges? The Disc needs replacing.
Is the pool radius sufficient for the SPLASHER to climb the walls? The
recommended radius is at least 300mm.
Check the oat chamber for buoyancy, no water should be present in the
chamber.
Is the outer tube or outer extension pipe excessively worn (in excess of 2mm
play)? Replace if necessary.
• SPLASHER
climbs out of the
water
Ensure that the ow control valve is working and free of debris.
Lower the setting on the ow control valve to reduce water ow through the
ow control valve and increase the bypass ow.
• SPLASHER
is sticking on pool
light
Ensure that pool light is not protruding from the pool wall surface (i.e. is ush
with pool wall surface). If necessary, remove lens of pool light and reinstall
correctly. Alternatively, utilise an Easy-Out Jogger Cone.
