SOLUTIONS
4.
If the cleaner slows or stops and
air bubbles enter the pool at the
return line.
Find and correct the air leak that is causing the
pump to lose its prime by doing the following:
•
Check the hoses to ensure there are no
leaks.
•
Check the vacuum lid at the automatic
regulator valve connection. It should be
submerged in the water so no air enters
the system. Top up the water level if it is
neccesary.
•
Check the pump lid for looseness, cracks,
and worn or missing O-rings. If you need
assistance, contact your pool professional.
PROBLEMS
5.
It the cleaner pulls air from, or
remains at, the water surface.
•
Check to ensure the dive float mechanism
is operating freely and the dive float
restrictor is installed. (See page 2 for how
to install dive float restrictor.)
•
Check the automatic regulator valve for
its proper installation and ensure it is not
clogged with debris.
•
Make sure the water level is at least
7-8 cm’s below the pool deck.
•
Check to insure the

6.
If the cleaner stays at the shallow
end steps.
•
Check the return line water flow and
re-direct as necessary with an eyeball
diverter.
•
Check the automatic regulator valve for
its proper installation and ensure it is not
clogged with debris.
•
Check that the hoses are long enough to
reach the furthest point of the pool, including
the pool steps.
•
Check that the cleaner has proper hose
balance in the shallow end.
