Operation and Maintenance

Daily Operation

The  cleaner  cycles  on/off  with  the  pool  filtration  pump,  vacuuming  and  cleaning  all  surfaces  randomly 

throughout the pool. The climbing ability of the cleaner is dependent on the pool’s shape and available 

water  flow.  If  the  cleaner  is  not  climbing  pool  walls,  ensure  the  flow  is  correct  by  checking  the  wheel 

speed. Also, ensure the pool surface is not covered in algae as this slippery surface may affect traction.
During each coverage pattern cycle, the cleaner travels both forward and backwards, and pivots to the 

right and left. The turbines underneath the cleaner create down force for climbing and stability as well as 

directing debris into the cleaner mouth. The scrubbing brushes also make contact with the pool floor to 

agitate and remove small stuck-on debris.

Cleaner Vacuum Modes

Your cleaner is designed to operate with two vacuum options:

• 

Large debris: 

For vacuuming large debris, such as leaves. It is recommended that you return the 

cleaner to small debris factory setting after large debris cleaning.  

• 

Small debris (factory setting):

 For vacuuming smaller and heavy debris, such as sand, silt and 

small stones. The pool cleaner is sent from the factory in this mode.

 

  

  

WARNING

To avoid serious injury, make sure that the cleaner is disconnected from the hose and the suction 

pump used for the cleaner is turned off prior to starting this operation.

 

Convert to large debris 
cleaning mode:

1.  Locate slot on underside of cleaner. Insert 

a flat tool into the inlet adapter (Figure 10). 

2.  Lift up the inlet adapter and then pull it out 

of the vacuum inlet.

Convert back to small debris  
cleaning mode:

1.  Place the modular inlet adapter in the vacuum 

inlet of the pool cleaner. 

2.  Push down on the modular inlet adapter until it 

clicks into place (Figure 11).

: Suction adaptor
: "Small debris" mode (default)
: "Large debris" mode

Tip: It is best to use "small debris" mode during the bathing season

When the pool is cleaned regularly, we recommend that you leave the suction adaptor in place to be in 

"small debris" mode.
