CLEANER ADJUSTMENTS AND OPERATION
Cleaner Operation
Note:
The RACER™ Pressure Side Pool Cleaner may need some minor adjustments to ensure it is operating properly
and to get the best performance possible.
When operating correctly, the cleaner will travel in a random pattern throughout the pool, vacuuming and scrubbing
the pool.
•
The climbing ability of the cleaner depends on the pool structure and water flow.
•
One hour cleaning cycle is recommended for average size residential (15’ x 30’) pools.
•
It will perform more efficiently in pools without sharp transitions between pool floor and walls.
•
The cleaner goes into a reverse mode approximately every 2-1/2 minutes for approximately 15 seconds.
•
If pool has a high level of debris, run the cleaner in two short cycles. Empty the debris bag between cycles.

Adjusting the Thrust Jet
The thrust jet is at the back of the cleaner below the sweep hose regulator, and helps to power the direction of the
cleaner.
See figure 15.
You may need to adjust the thrust jet based on the pool shape, in order to get maximum cleaner coverage.
The alternate jet position shown below can help the climbing ability of the cleaner.
