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.

4. Connect the hose 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.
