D. Cutting the Feed Hose
1. Straighten the feed hose by soaking it in
hot water or laying it in the sun.
2. Measure and mark the deepest part of the
pool (usually the main drain) with a telepole.
If the pool depth is 10 feet or more, do not
cut the clear hose and skip to step 5.
3. Lay the telepole next to the clear hose. If the
clear hose is longer than the mark on the
telepole, cut the excess from the end attached
to the white hose. Do not cut off the float.
4. Reattach the clear hose to the white hoses.
➔ It is easier to reinstall the swivels when the
hose and swivels are wet.
5. Attach the quick disconnect at the end of
the white hose to the universal wall fitting.
6. Stretch the hose to the farthest point of the
pool. (The Polaris will not usually climb onto
the top step, so do not count it in your mea-
surement.) If the hose is within 6" of the
farthest point of the pool, go to Section E.
If the hose is more than 6" short, add a
10-foot section of white hose with floats
(part #9-100-3104), two nuts (part #D-15),
and one swivel (part #D-20). Do not add
more than one 10-foot hose section.
7. Measure the amount of hose that extends
past the farthest point of the pool. This is
the overage measurement. Do not cut
the hose yet.
8. Lay the hose on the deck. Go to the swivel
between the 10-foot white hoses. Slide the
floats away from the swivel and remove
the swivel.
9. Cut an equal amount of the overage mea-
surement from each 10-foot white hose.
10.
Reinstall the swivel with the flow arrows on the
swivel pointing toward the Polaris. (Refer to the
“Proper Nut Placement” diagram.)
