CLEANER ADJUSTMENTS & OPERATION
After completing the installation, turn the pool pump
on. Allow the pump to run for a couple of minutes to
ensure all air cycles out of the system. The cleaner
should be moving about the pool at a rate of 8 to 12
feet per minute. Check each of the following initial
adjustments to the cleaner at this time.
Hose Length
IMPORTANT: The pump must be on when you check
the hose length. The hose contracts when the pump is
operating and will be longer when the pump is off.
With the cleaner operating:
1. Position cleaner at the furthest point of the pool
from where it’s attached. (Use a pool pole and
brush to easily position the cleaner in the pool).
2. The cleaner’s hose should be long enough to reach
the end of the pool, plus one hose section.
3. If there is excess hose, be sure to remove the
sections from the center portion of hose. This
avoids disturbing the hose weight placement.
4. Save extra hose section for use as needed for
replacement.
NOTE: Turn pool pump off when adding or removing
hose sections.
Hose Balance
To determine correct hose balance, turn the pump off and
observe the cleaner. Hose balance is correct when the
cleaner’s seal rests at on the pool oor and the diver
tubesmakea 45degree anglewith theoor, asshown
in Figure 10. The cleaner achieves the best cleaning
coverage when the hose neither weights down nor pills
up on the unit. Adjust hose weights one inch at a time as
needed, until proper hose balance is achieved. In pools
with both shallow and deep areas, adjust hose weights
rstinthedeepareaandthenintheswallowarea.
1. Hose Too Light. If the hose rises towards the surface
at an angle greater than 45°, move the weights
closertothecleaner,ormovethersttwoweights
closer to each other.
2. Correct Hose Balance.
3. Hose Too Heavy. If the hose sags downward to an
angle less than 45°, move the weights away from
thecleaner,orseparatethersttwoweightsaway
from each other.
Return Line Water Flow
IMPORTANT
:Thewaterowfromyourreturnlinecan
push the cleaner’s hose and affect its performance.
It may cause the cleaner to steer away from the end
of the pool where the return line is located, or it may
cause the cleaner to remain in one section of the pool.
To correct this, use the eyeball diverter included with
your the cleaner.
To Install the Eyeball Diverter
1. First make sure your pool pump is off. Remove
the original eyeball from the return line at the pool
by unscrewing the lock ring.
2. Replace the original eyeball with the cleaner
eyeball diverter.
3. Replace the lock ring and tighten. Make sure the
opening of the eyeball diverter points in the proper
direction before tightening fully. See “Eyeball
Diverter positions” below.
