Check the water flow reading on the Flow Gauge (refer to step
1
, Fig.
3
). The black disk should be in the box
between the “MIN” and “MAX” markings. If the setting is higher than required with the black disk outside
of the box on the “MAX” side and you have connected your hose to the skimmer, it will be necessary to
reduce the vacuum/water flow by using a valve or valves in the filter system, or the AquaStar
hwn161
Regulator Valve or an optional AquaStar Automatic Skimmer Vacuum Plate designed to adjust vacuum/
water flow. To install the
hwn161
Regulator Valve, turn the filter system off. Remove the hose from the
hwn152
Skimmer Cone, and after closing the Regulator Valve (rotate the blue collar clockwise/
until closed/tight), insert the Regulator Valve into the Skimmer Cone, and insert the hose end into the
Regulator Valve (see Fig.
5
on previous page).
Turn the filter system on and allow it to run long enough to eliminate any air in the system. Turn the blue
collar counter clockwise until the proper reading appears on the gauge.
If you have connected your hose to the AquaStar Vacuum Lock, it will be necessary to adjust the vacuum/
water flow using the three-way valve at the filter system. The handle on the valve should be turned so that
the Flow Gauge which is installed in the StarzTruck hose reads properly (refer to Fig.
3
on page
2
). After the
three-way valve has been properly adjusted, the vacuum gauge at the three-way valve should be marked
so that the water flow can be adjusted by referring to the gauge at the valve rather than reinstalling the
Flow Gauge in the hose each time an adjustment is necessary. Once the Flow Gauge has a proper reading,
remove it from the leader hose and reattach the StarzTruck automatic pool cleaner. Submerge the StarzTruck
back into the pool until it reaches the bottom for operation.
