GENERAL INFORMATION
You have purchased the finest piece of equipment in the pool cleaner industry. If you
treat it as such, your KINGSHARK automatic swimming pool vacuum cleaner will
give you years of satisfactory service. As a suggestion, off-season the unit should
be stored in the original shipping container for safekeeping.
ADJUSTMENT
THERE IS ONLY ONE ADJUSTMENT THAT MAY BE NECESSARY FOR
USE IN MOST POOLS. PLEASE TAKE THE FEW MINUTES TO MAKE IT, IF
NECESSARY.
The height of the sensor bar #1710 (Page 9, Key 22) is preset at the factory for
average pools. It may be necessary to readjust the height of the sensor bar for the
machine to operate satisfactorily in your pool.
In “Free Form” or “Bowl Shaped” pools, the sensor bar will have to be raised to a
higher setting to allow the machine to climb out of the deep end and clean up the
radius or slope as far as possible without the machine turning over.
Adjustment of the sensor bar #1710 (Page 9, Key 22) is made by loosening adjusting
arm nut #1722 (Page 9, Key 26) located just ahead of the intake. The nut is shaped
as a thumb screw for your convenience.
With the machine sitting on a level surface, loosen adjusting arm nut, and move
sensor bar to desired position. Make certain the sensor bar is parallel to the level
surface and retighten the adjusting arm nut one-half to three-quarter turn past hand
tight. Do not overtighten.
It may be necessary to reset the sensor bar several times to find the best position
for operation in your pool. Sensor bar should glide freely. This can be checked by
pushing the sensor bar which will activate the reversing arms.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Select nearest grounded outlet supply of 110/115/220/240 volts.
CAUTION: avoid overloaded circuits as low or high voltage can
damage your motor. A connected ground is most important. Plug cord
into outlet Observe machine as it travels over bottom of pool.
2. Allow machine to travel around the pool until it is clean. Average 30’
x 60’ pool will require 150 minutes or less. If the pool has a heavy
accumulation of debris, it may be necessary to clean the filter several
times during the vacuuming period.
