Some Zodiac Pool Cleaner models require a wheel deflector for proper performance. If your model includes one, slide the wheel
deflector over the extension pipe and secure between the two lowest pipe ridges. Make sure the top clips of the wheel deflector are
seated in the groove. The wheel deflector should rotate freely.
