KRUISER™ Inground Suction Pool Cleaner Installation and User’s Guide
MAINTENANCE
The Kreepy Kruiser
™
Inground Suction Pool Cleaner requires very little maintenance
but it is important to regularly check the following items.
Cleaning the Flapper
1. Turn off the pump.
2. With your hand, unscrew and lift the external
housing to view the flapper.
3. Push the latch upward to remove the flapper lid.
Take off the lid and inspect the flapper for debris.
(See images on this page).
4. Be sure the flapper is moving freely up and down
and that it is securely clipped into place.
5. Put the lid back and slide the lock down to close.
(No tools are required).
6. Place the external housing back over the flapper
and hand tighten.
Removing Damaged or Worn Flapper
1. Pull the flapper and wiggle outward until it
un-clips from the pin.
2. To install the new flapper, push it in firmly (TOP
side up as marked) onto the pin until it snaps into
place. If flapper is clipped the wrong way (TOP
side down) you will not be able to close the lid.
Check the Vacuum Seal
1. If the vacuum seal becomes thin and too floppy,
it will impair the correct random movement of the
cleaner.
2. Replace the vacuum seal if needed.
Other Maintenance
• Inspect the foot pad for wear. Replace when the
traction pads on the bottom have worn down.
• Inspect the regulator valve and flush away any
debris build up.
• Clean your filter system.
• Empty the skimmer basket.
