  If your baracuda Swimming Pool Cleaner is not moving or is moving slowly, here are a few things to check: * Ensure the main drain is closed. * Use the Flow Gauge to verify proper flow. Note that in water 60° F (16° C) or less, you might need to increase the flow. * Check the diaphragm for blockages or wear. * Clean the baskets and filter. * Inspect the system for air. If you see excessive air bubbles or the water level in the pump basket drops, check hose connections, tighten all fittings at the pump, and inspect the gasket in the pump basket for wear.
