Operation and Maintenance
Fine Tuning Cleaner Performance
Cycling on and off with the pool filtration system, the G2 moves randomly around the pool, vacuuming and
cleaning all surfaces as it goes. As water flows through the cleaner, dirt and debris are pulled directly into
the pool filtration system. The coverage of the clearner is dependent on the pool’s shape and available
water flow. In some applications, adjustments may be necessary to optimize cleaning coverage.
The hose weight is positioned to
compensate for the buoyancy of the hose.
A properly balanced hose will create a
45-degree angle to the cleaner and the
bottom of the pool.
In pools 8-1/2 feet or deeper, an extra hose
weight (part #W83247) may be necessary.
Add the weight 5 to 8 feet from the cleaner.
A return line can be used to guide the cleaner
away from steps or areas with V-shaped
corners, and reduce patterning.
Direct the return to gently push the cleaner hose
by positioning the return directional so it aims
towards the wall on the opposite side of the
pool, and surface movement is visible 8 feet out
from the return.
In this example, any return within the grey
area can be used.
Routine Maintenance
To maintain cleaner performance:
•
Never coil the hose. Straighten a coiled hose with warm water or by laying it in the sun for a day.
A kinked or coiled hose will adversely effect the cleaner’s coverage of the pool.
•
When not in the pool, keep the finned disc flat to avoid warping.
•
Periodically inspect cleaner parts for wear.
•
Thoroughly clean the skimmer basket, pump basket and filter regularly. Always disconnect the cleaner
from the pool wall or skimmer before cleaning or backwashing the pool filter. After cleaning or
backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five minutes before re-connecting the cleaner.
•
Remove the cleaner from the pool before chemical or shock treatments. Wait a minimum
of 4 hours after super chlorination before re-installing the cleaner.
