1. THE PARTS OF YOUR POOLGOBBLER PRO
Take all parts from the box and arrange them in front of you as
shown on the picture, remove the orange sleeve (a2) from the
connector (a).
a
= universal connector
a2
= flexible sleeve of the universal connector
b
= elbow
c
= flexibele hose
d
= floating head
e
= holder with its filter bag
f
= clip
g
= cover
parts
a2
en
g
will only be needed in special cases.
TO ASSEMBLE:
Slide hose
c
onto elbow
b
and push firmly until it clicks. Do the same
for the hose and the floating head
d
.
Slide holder
e
with the filter bag, from the inside out, leading the
filter bag to the outside (on the picture from left to right). Push the
holder firmly into the skimmer head.
Parts
a
and
f
will be used later.
2. INSTALLATION OF YOUR POOLGOBBLER PRO.
If your pool is equipped with inlet jets (this usually is the case) then
proceed to paragraph
2A. CONNECTING TO AN INLET JET.
If the
water inlet of your pool is a smooth pipe (for example a Desjoyaux
pool) then proceed to paragraph
2B. CONNECTING TO A SMOOTH
PIPE
.
2A. CONNECTING TO AN INLET JET
First you have to determine to which inlet you wish to connect your
PoolGobbler Pro.
Select the inlet jet such that PoolGobbler Pro can create its
circular flow without any perturbation.
The picture shows a quite standard pool with three inlets and two
skimmers. The PoolGobbler should
never
be connected to inlet jet C
because either A or B would disturb the circular flow. PoolGobbler
has to be connected to either A or B. We choose to connect our
PoolGobbler Pro to
inlet jet A .
To avoid inlet jets B and C to
perturbate the circular flow, the circular flow should go straight
from inlet jet A to inlet jets C and B, counter clockwise. To achieve
this we install PoolGobbler Pro with its filter bag pointing to inlet B.
INSTALLATION:
Switch off the pump.
Unscrew the cover of the inlet you have selected and remove the
directional ball (it will no longer be needed).
Insert the toothed end of the Universal connector into the opening
of the cover until the red rim touches the cover. In case the opening
is too small to insert the Universal connector replace it by part G and
try again. If this also fails proceed to paragraph
2B. CONNECTING TO
A SMOOTH PIPE
.
Fasten the universal connector by turning the white wheel on the
connector: the teeth will spread thus locking the connector to the
cover.
Put the cover with the universal connector back on the inlet jet and
screw it onto it.
Slide the PoolGobbler with its elbow B over the end of the Universal
Connector (you may have to push quite firmly) and secure with clip F
(see picture).
