Step 4: Assemble Hose and Hose Weights
1. To connect the hose sections, wet the ends in the
pool water, then twist and push the female ends onto
the male ends.
Note:
One of the hose sections has two (2)
female ends. This section should be fitted last and
attached to pool vacuum connection.
2. The hose should reach from where the Kreepy Krauly
®
Suction Pool Cleaner is connected to the farthest
point of the pool, plus one section.
3. Your cleaner comes with two hose weights. Attach
hose weights to the hose based on
Table A.
The
number of hose weights is determined by the
maximum depth of your pool. The hose weights help
to neutralize the hose’s buoyancy in water.
4. Connect the hose to the cleaner.
5. Install the hose protector on the female/female hose
section. Then connect the female/female end to the
vacuum connection.
Note:
May substitute 4 inch Female/Female hose.
Step 3: Attach Bumper Strap Assembly and Adjust Dive Float Restrictor
1. Insert the bottom end of the strap into the slot provided on the main body. Insert the top end of the strap
into the locking clip attached to the swivel head. Be sure both ends are inserted.
See Figure 6
.
2. To adjust dive float assembly, locate two small tabs directly below dive float assembly. Rotate both dive float
restrictors into the up position to prevent climbing or standard down position.
See Figure 7
