Installation
INSTALLING YOUR POOL VAC ULTRA IS SIMPLE...

Note
The V094 Regulator Valve and the Hayward Skimmer Vacuum Plate can only be used to LOWER an initial vacuum
reading that is TOO HIGH.
The Regulator Valve and the Skimmer Vacuum Plate cannot be used to INCREASE
the initial vacuum reading
. An initial reading that is too low to meet the water flow setting necessary to operate
the cleaner is indicative of a system problem, and not a problem with the cleaner.
Contact your Hayward Pool Vac Ultra Dealer for assistance.
If you have connected your hose to a dedicated vacuum line it will be necessary to adjust the vacuum/ water flow
using the 3-way valve at the filter system. The handle on the valve should be turned so that the Flow Gauge
which is installed in the Pool Vac Ultra hose reads properly (refer to Figure 2).
Step 7
Remove the Flow Gauge from the hose and keep it handy. You will want to use the Flow Gauge to check
the Pool Vac Ultra's operation from time to time.
Step 8
Check the rear flap adjuster dial at the left rear of the Pool Vac Ultra. It should be set at position number II which
is the middle position
(see Figure 5)
. Submerge the Pool Vac Ultra into the water and remove all of the entrapped
air. When escaping air bubbles cease, you are ready to connect the hose.
Connect the hose cuff of the leader hose to the Pool Vac Ultra and submerge the hose to remove all air as when
vacuuming the pool with a standard hand-vacuum
(see Figure 6)
.
Do not use the return line/inlet water to “sink” the Pool Vac Ultra hose, as this will force air into the
cleaner head, and possibly cause performance problems.
