1. Turn on the pool filtration pump and flush out
the plumbing line. Turn off the pump.
2. Choose the return line nearest the center-
point of the longest pool wall for the Polaris.
If there are two return lines at an equal dis-
tance from the centerpoint, select the return
line that is closer to the pool equipment.
Place one eyeball regulator into one of the
remaining return lines.
Note: Once installed, verify the cleaner is operat-
ing according to the Operation Section on page 4.
3. Unscrew the universal wall fitting from the
quick disconnect.
• If the return line for the Polaris has 1-1/2"
female threads exposed, screw in the uni-
versal wall fitting by hand. Turn the quick
disconnect clockwise (also by hand) into
the universal wall fitting to tighten it into
place; do not overtighten. Once secure,
the quick disconnect can be removed
without removing the universal wall fitting.
•
If the return line for the Polaris looks like
the one below, remove the parts shown
and install the universal wall fitting.
