Return Line Water Flow
IMPORTANT:
The water flow from your return line can push the cleaner’s hose and affect its
performance. It may cause the cleaner to steer away from the end of the pool where the return line
is located, or it may cause the cleaner to remain in one section of the pool. To correct this, use the
eyeball diverter (optional extra) included with your cleaner, or point your return line fitting in another
direction.
To install the eyeball diverter:
•
Note: The eyeball diverter does not fit all pool return line fittings!
•
First make sure your
pool pump is off
. Remove the original eyeball from the return line at
the pool by unscrewing the lock ring.
•
Replace the original eyeball with the
BADU
®
Vac
I
eyeball diverter.
•
Replace the lock ring and tighten. Make sure the opening of the eyeball diverter points in
the proper direction before tightening fully. See “Eyeball Diverter positions”.
Eyeball Diverter Positions
Position the diverter opening to redirect the return line
water flow so it does not interfere with the cleaner’s
movement.
Try different positions to see which works best in
your pool:
•
Flow directed along the side of pool (the tile line).
•
Flow directed downward.
•
Flow directed against the hose will help steer the
cleaner away from obstructions such as
stairs and ladders.
After installing the eyeball diverter,
turn the pool pump on
. The
BADU
®
Vac
I
should begin moving
across the pool floor vacuuming up debris in its path.
