Parts
Setup & Operation
Assembly
- Attach part A to part B.
- Attach part C to part A to ensure part C rotates freely.
- Turn off the pump of your pool.
If your pool is equipped with a vacuum plug, follow step 4 on the next page.
Otherwise, follow step 5. - Connect part G to your vacuum plug. Connect the part I (regulator) into the part G. Make sure that the arrow under the regulator is pointed towards the vacuum plug.
Proceed to the step 7 below. - Remove the top lid and the basket of your wall skimmer.
- Assemble the two elbow connectors, part H, to the part I, the regulator. Insert the part G facing downward and then the regulator. Make sure that the arrow under the regulator is pointing towards the skimmer.
- Connect together the tube sections parts D and E.
- Place part F (weight) at the end of the first tube section and connect the tube assembly.
- Fill the tube section with water to eliminate air pockets.
- Fill the tube section with water to eliminate air pockets.
- Adjust your filtration system to the vacuum setting. A pump of at least 3/4 horsepower (6.5 m3/h) is required. The water flow should not be larger than 12 m3/h.
The pump can now be turned on.
Adjustments During Operation
The regulator, part I, can control the power of the cleaner. |
If the cleaner leans too far forwards or backwards during, operation, this can be corrected by moving the weight “F” along the tube section as shown below. |

Troubleshooting
Cleaner is sluggish or has stopped operating
- Check if the pump is ON and / or primed.
- Check Cleaner head for blockages.
- Clean and empty pump basket and empty skimmer/weir basket.
- Ensure the filtration system is thoroughly cleaned. Clean sand/cartridge filters on your pool pump as per manufacturer specifications.
- Inspect the regulator valve and flush away any debris build-up.
- Check the Mat for wear.
- Make sure the curved tips of the Mat are facing upwards.
- Ensure that the skimmer/weir vacuum lid is fitted correctly and check for cracks.
- Check the hose for blockage.
- Check the hose for leaks by lifting each section above water while pump is running.
- Consult a pool shop in your area.
Cleaner gets stuck on steps
- Adjust the return jets toward the problem area to guide the cleaner away from the steps.
- Verify proper hose length.
- Ensure cleaner sits flush with the pool floor. Adjust the position of hose weight if necessary.
- This should be done at the deepest part of the pool.
- Increase or decrease the flow to your cleaner via the regulator.
- Check the mat for wear.
Cleaner travels in a repetitive pattern
- Adjust return jets downwards.
- Verify proper hose length.
- Ensure cleaner sits flush with the pool floor. Adjust the position of hose weight if necessary.
- This should be done at the deepest part of the pool.
- Remove or add one hose section.
- Inspect the Regulator Valve and flush away any debris build-up.
- Check that the hose sections are straight; if not, lay hose in a straight line in the sun to relax the memory.
- Twist each hose section a half-turn at each connection point.
- Ensure the wheel at the top of the Cleaner head is rotating freely.
Cleaner climbs out of pool and draws in air
- Ensure there is a valve installed in the skimmer/weir.
- Inspect the Regulator Valve and flush away any debris build-up.
- Verify proper hose length.
- Ensure cleaner sits flush with the pool floor. Adjust the position of hose weight if necessary. This should be done at the deepest part of the pool.
Cleaner hose is tangling
- Ensure the wheel on top of the Cleaner body is rotating freely and is screwed on securely.
- Check that the hose sections are straight; if not, lay hose in a straight line in the sun to relax the memory.
- There may be too many hose sections for your pool. Try removing a section.
- Inspect the Regulator Valve and flush away any debris build-up.
- For pools where the skimmer is located at one end, the performance of the cleaner can be greatly improved by tying the hose off in the middle of the long side of your pool. This will allow the cleaner to move about the entire pool and eliminate the cleaner hose from tangling.
Cleaner won't leave edge or rim of pool
- Utilise return jets to move cleaner.
- Adjust hose weight.
- Try decreasing the flow to your cleaner via the regulator. Less suction will allow the cleaner to move more freely.
Cleaner leaves patches
- Ensure the wheel on top of the Cleaner body is rotating freely and is screwed on securely.
- Adjust return jets downwards.
- Verify proper hose length.
- Ensure cleaner sits flush with the pool floor. Adjust the position of hose weight if necessary.
- This should be done at the deepest part of the pool.
- Check that the hose sections are straight; if not, lay hose in a straight line in the sun to relax the memory.
