Storage and Winterizing
Perform routine maintenance to prolong the life of your cleaner.
1. Detatch the bag by releasing the prongs.
2. Remove the bag tie collar from the feed hose.
3. Open the closure and dump out the debris.
Empty the bag when it is half full, especially if the dirt load is mostly sand.
NOTE: It is easier to empty a dry bag. Remove the bag and let dry before emptying.
Alternate between two bags while drying, so the cleaning cycle is not interrupted.
Backwash your pool filter periodically. Always disconnect the Polaris
®
cleaner
from the pool wall before cleaning or backwashing the pool filter. After cleaning or
backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five minutes to flush out the
return lines before re-connecting the Polaris cleaner.
NOTE: Never store the cleaner in direct sunlight.
To store the cleaner for the winter:
1. Remove cleaner from the pool and drain all water to avoid freezing water damage
(freeze damage is not covered under the warranty).
2. Remove the UWF
®
from the pool wall using the Quick Disconnect. Use a pulling
pressure as you unscrew.
If necessary, use the UWF Removal Tool (part #10-102-00) available from your local
Polaris dealer.
