FEEDER HOSE ASSEMBLY:

Feeder hoses are factory-assembled and must 
always be in the following order:

FIRST SECTION

 is a 

WHITE HOSE 

that fits 

between the 

WALL FITTING 

and the 

DARK BLUE 

HOSE

.

SECOND SECTION 

is a 

DARK BLUE HOSE 

that 

fits between the 

WHITE HOSE 

and the 

LIGHT 

BLUE HOSE

.

THIRD SECTION 

is a 

LIGHT BLUE HOSE 

that fits 

between the 

DARK BLUE HOSE 

and the 

JET-VAC.

The Jet-Vac feed lines are formulated with a special 
material for maximum performance. These feed lines 
cannot be kinked at any time either during operation 
or when being removed from the pool. Kinking feed 
lines will result in bursting and will not be covered by 
warranty. From time to time it may be necessary to 
lay the entire assembled hose out straight in the sun 
to remove any coil-memory from the hose.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE FOR 

JET-VAC FEED HOSE:

1)  

Turn off booster pump, filter pump and time 
clocks.

2)  

Attach the wall fitting to the pool wall, as shown in 
Figure 1 on previous page. Feed hose is factory-
fitted to the wall fitting.

3)  

Take the “sweep hose” end of the Jet-Vac hose 
and walk around the circumference of the pool to 
find the point that is furthest from the wall fitting. 
Remove the slack from the hose but do not 
stretch the hose.

4)  

Hold the hose at the pool edge. Allow 600mm (2ft) 
overhang past the pool edge, then measure from 
this point to the end of the feed hose. Remember 
what this distance is. This is the distance that will 
need to be cut off the Dark Blue Hose.

5)  

Go back to the Dark Blue Hose where it is marked 
“Cut This Section Only”, unscrew the Mender Nut 
and cut the hose to the required length. After you 
cut the Dark Blue Hose, evenly space the Hose 
Floats by sliding them so they divide the remaining 
section into three equal parts. Depending on how 
much hose is cut, there may be only one Hose 
Float left on this hose. If so, then slide the Hose 
Float to the middle of the Dark Blue Hose.

6)  

Re-attach the Dark Blue Hose to the Swivel and 
tighten the Mender Nut.
