b) You will notice that your replacement flaps look similar but are marked “Front” and “Rear” on the
inside of the flap.
Because the springs on the flaps are different, it is absolutely necessary to install the proper flap in the front and rear
of the unit. Failure to do so will result in unsatisfactory performance of the Hayward Blu cleaner. When installing the
front flap, be sure that the extended leg of the spring is inserted into the notch on the front of the lower body (See
Figure 12). Push the flap in place. You will actually feel and hear a snap when the flap is in place. Fold the flap in
towards the bottom of the Hayward Blu cleaner. You will feel some resistance at this point which is normal. As the
flap snaps into its normal position, you will feel the spring action and notice that the front flap is now in its normal
operating position. When installing the rear flap, the extended leg of the spring must fit against one of the flat
surfaces of the cam (See Figure 12). After positioning the spring, follow same insertion and folding process as front
flap.
