2.2. Assembling the hose sections
The hose consists of several sections with fast Twist-Lock connectors that are very simple to use.
•
To assemble two hose sections, lock them together and twist
them as far as you can until the connectors reach one of the three
sealing notches.
• The first section of the hose, which holds the float, should be
connected to the cleaner. The float should be
20-23 cm from the
cleaner body.

To optimise cleaning coverage, do not use an excessively long hose.
2.3. Connecting the hose to the skimmer or suction line
Start the filtration system and fill the hose with water by placing the end of the hose in front of a discharge outlet. Stop
the pump.
Connection to a suction line
1. Connect the opposite end of the hose from the cleaner to
the 45-degree extended Twist-Lock elbow.
2.
Connect the conical adaptor to the suction line.
3. Connect the other end of the extended elbow to the conical
adaptor.
4. Direct the elbow up towards the surface of the water.

Connection to a skimmer
The flow regulation valve should always be used for installations
with a single skimmer.
If the pool has several skimmers, connect the hose to the one
closest to the pump.
1. Remove the skimmer lid and basket.
2.
Fix the conical adaptor to the bottom of the skimmer.
3. Connect the
flow regulation valve
to the conical adaptor and
the other end to the 45-degree elbow.

2.4. Installing the leaf trap (Cyclonic Leaf Catcher - MX™ 8 PRO)
• Stop the pump.

Connect the leaf trap to the closest hose to the suction line or
skimmer.

Ensure the leaf trap is the right way round:
"PUMP"
= pump side
and
"CLEANER"
= cleaner side.
