GENERAL INFORMATION
You have purchased the finest piece of equipment in the pool cleaner industry. If you
treat it as such, your KingShark2 automatic swimming pool vacuum cleaner will give you
years of satisfactory service. As a suggestion, the unit should be stored in the original
shipping container for safekeeping during the off season.
ADJUSTMENT
THERE IS ONE ADJUSTMENT THAT MAY BE NECESSARY FOR USE IN YOUR
POOL. PLEASE TAKE THE FEW MINUTES NECESSARY TO UNDERSTAND THIS
SIMPLE PROCEDURE:
The height of the sensor bar #3210 (Page 9, Key 2) is pre-set 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 may 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 #3210 (Page 9, Key 2) is made by loosening adjust-
ing arm bolts #2121 B (Page 9, Key D) located just ahead of the intake. With the
machine sitting on a level surface, loosen both adjusting arm bolts, and move sensor
bar to desired position. Make certain the sensor bar is parallel to the level surface
and retighten the adjusting arm.
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 back on the sensor bar which will activate the reversing arms.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Select nearest grounded outlet supply of 110/115/220/240 voltage.
CAUTION: avoid overloaded circuits as low or high voltage can damage your mo-
tor. A connected ground is most important. Plug into outlet. Observe machine as it
travels over bottom of pool.
Allow machine to travel around the pool until it is clean. Average 75' x 150' pool will
required approximately 4 hours. If the pool has a heavy accumulation of debris, it
may be necessary to clean the filter several times during the vacuuming period.
Upon completion of vacuuming the pool, allow the unit to travel to the shallow end
of the pool. Before it reaches the pool wall, turn power off, raise the unit by the white
nylon rope #1312, then remove the unit from the water by use of the handle. Allow
excess water from the filter to drain into the pool with the KingShark2 resting on the
edge or coping. Do not leave machine in water after disconnecting.
