Section 4.  Maintenance 

4.1  Cord Tangling

IMPORTANT

The power cable may become tangled if correct 

procedure is not followed after each cleaning cycle.

Do not leave the cleaner unattended for prolonged 

periods and follow the procedure below to avoid 

excessive tangling.

After every cleaning cycle:

1. 

Unplug power to the cleaner at the control 

unit.

2. 

Remove the cleaner from the pool and 

untangle all kinks and coils in the floating 

cable starting at the cleaner head (Figure 13).

3. 

Plug power cord back into control unit and 

store cleaner out of direct sunlight for next 

use.

4.2  Replacing the Brushes

The cleaner is fitted with a scrubbing brush in front. 

There are ''wear'' indicators (Figure 14) on the 

brushes. To maintain cleaner performance at its best 

you need to replace the brush as soon as one of the 

wear indicators has been reached (even if the blade 

wear is not even). Baracuda recommends that you 

replace the brush every two (2) years.

 WARNING

To avoid electric shock and other hazards 

which could result in permanent injury or death, 

disconnect (unplug) the cleaner from the power 

source before performing any cleaning and 

maintenance.

Figure 14. Wear Indicators

1. 

Separate the edges of the brush, undo the 

tabs, and remove the worn brush.

2. 

Position the new brush underneath the roller 

with the spikes facing downwards.  Refer to 

Figure 15.

3.

gently feed it through until the heel comes out 

at the other side of the slot. Refer to Figure
