You will also need to attach hose weights to neutralize the hose’s buoyancy in the water.
For inground pools all three weights are typically needed. The rst weight should be
placed on the st section of hose between 4 and 12 inches from the body’s swivel head.
The next two weights should be positioned 6 feet and 10 feet from the body respectively.
The hose weights may need to be adjusted depending on the style of your pool.
With the cleaner o, the hose balance is correct when the cleaner’s seal rests at on the
pool oor and the main body makes a 45 degree angle with the pool oor. The cleaner will
achieve the best performance when the hose neither weighs down or pulls up the unit.
Adjust the weights one inch at a time as needed, until the proper hose balance is achieved.
• HOSE IS TOO LIGHT — If the hose rises towards the surface at an angle greater than
45 degrees, move the weight closer to the cleaner.
• HOSE IS TOO HEAVY — If the hose sags downward at an
angle less than
45 degrees, move the weight away from the cleaner.

• For pools with 2 suction lines (i.e. main drain and skimmer or 2 skimmers) it is
necessary to close o the suction line not being used for the cleaner. This can be done
by turning o the valve for the main drain, or using a skimmer bypass plate to restrict
the ow of water .
• As your vacuum cleaner removes debris fr om the pool and it is collected in your lter ,
you may notice the vacuum operating slower than normal and a r eduction in ow from
the return. Make sur e that you periodically check your lter pr essur e and backwash
your lter or clean your lter element as needed.
• Remove as many obstructions as possible including ladders, oats, or any other items
that may be in the pool and could limit the cleaner’s ability to navigate the pool.
• Do not coil hose when taking the cleaner out of the pool. The hose may retain the
shape, forming a bend or kink which will hinder the cleaner’s performance.

Remove your vacuum from the pool and dry completely. Disassemble the hose sections
and store in the original box, or lay the hoses out on a at surface. NEVER store the hose
in a coiled position as it may retain the curved shape, not allowing the vacuum to operate
efciently. Store the vacuum so the pleated seal lays at, or remove the seal and store it in
a at position. Stor e all parts indoors.

Sometimes debris may clog the bottom of the cleaner and prevent the apper from
moving. This will r estrict the ow of the cleaner. The apper is located inside the main
body and must move freely at all times. You can see the apper through the opening in the
bafe plate when the cleaner is turned upside down. Try to fr ee the apper by moving it
back and forth, or ush the cavity of the cleaner fr ee with a gar den hose. This will remove
any debris that may be lodged inside the cleaner .
