cleaner requires very little maintenance.
Check the following from time to time.
1. It is quick and easy to open up the Flapper’s chamber. Simply
turn off the pump, push the sliding lock up into the open
position and remove the lid. With your finger, lift and inspect
the Flapper and the chamber to insure that it is not obstructed
by debris, as shown.
2. Also insure that the Flapper is moving freely up and down and
that it is securely clipped into place. Then place the lid back
and slide the lock down to close.
3. To remove a damaged or worn Flapper; (no tools are
required). Simply grab the Flapper, pull and wiggle outward
until it un-clips from it’s pin. To install the new Flapper, push
it in firmly (TOP side up as marked) onto the pin until it snaps
into place. If the Flapper is clipped in the wrong way (TOP
side down) you will not be able to close the lid.
4. Check the Vacuum Seal for wear. If it becomes thin and too
floppy, it will impair the correct random movement of the
Cleaner and should be replaced.
5. Inspect the Foot Pad for wear, when the traction pads on the
bottom have worn down, it is time to replace them.
6. Inspect the Regulator Valve and flush
away any debris build up.
7. Clean your filter system.
8. Empty the Skimmer Basket.
9. Empty the Pump Strainer Basket.
10. Use your Flow Gauge to insure correct water flow for your
Cleaner.
11. For best results and to maintain proper operation, use only
original hoses.
Note:
Remove the Cleaner from the pool before any chemical
shock treatment!!
12. When not in the pool, keep the Cleaner’s Vacuum Seal flat
to avoid warping.
13. Your Cleaner can stay in the pool at all times, however, when
using the pool, disconnect the Cleaner and hose and pull it to
one side of the pool.
14. When storing or winterizing the Cleaner,
do not coil the hose
.
Lay the hose flat in an area protected from direct sunlight. It
is also important to remove the Vacuum Seal from the
Cleaner and store it flat.
