RENEGADE GUNITE SKIMMER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

NORMAL OPERATION

Water passes over the weir door, down through the basket and float valve assembly to 
the pump. The trimmer plate on the float valve assembly or the diverter plate are both 
open.

ADJUSTING THE SKIMMER FLOW

If the skimmer flow is too fast due to excessive flow rate from the pump, either rotate 
the float valve trimmer plate or the diverter plate over the port to the pump until 
required flow is achieved.

VACUUM/BRUSHING THE POOL

To vacuum the pool, first remove the float valve, then close the diverter plate over the 
main drain. Install the vacuum plate above the basket and connect the vacuum hose 
to the vacuum plate to proceed with the brushing operation.

MULTIPLE SKIMMERS

Rotate the diverter plate at the bottom of the skimmer over the pump port to restrict 
the flow and balance the flow from each skimmer.

LOW WATER LEVELS

When the water level drops below the weir door, water will no longer flow from the 
pool through the upper part of the skimmer. The pump will evacuate the remaining 
water from the skimmer causing the float valve to close and water will flow from the 
main drain only, or until the water level is increased. The same can occur when and if 
the basket gets filled with leaves and debris.
