KRUISER™ Inground Suction Pool Cleaner Installation and User’s Guide
Hose Assembly
While the cleaner is operating:
1. Position cleaner at the furthest point of the pool from where it’s attached. Use a pool pole and brush to easily
position the cleaner in the pool.
2. The hose should be long enough to reach the end of
the pool, plus one hose section.
3. Remove any excess hose lengths from the middle of
the hose assembly. This will ensure you do not alter
the position of the hose float.
4. Save extra hose sections for use as needed for
replacement.
Note:
Turn pool pump off when adding or removing
hose sections.
Vacuum Seal Installation
1. Pull the Vacuum Seal over the Kruiser™ Inground
Suction Pool Cleaner’s Foot Pad to fit properly into the
Foot Pad’s groove as shown in the illustration.
2. Be sure the curved tips face upwards.
3. Check with your hand that the Vacuum Seal rotates
freely once it is in the groove.
Attaching Hose Weights
The number of hose weights required is determined by
the maximum depth of your pool - the deeper your pool,
the more weight is needed. Use the table below to find the
number of hose weights needed for your pool.
1. Attach hose weights to the hose to keep the cleaner
at a 45° angle in the pool for maximum coverage.
2. If needed, adjust the 1
st
hose weight (closest to the
cleaner) towards the 2
nd
hose weight.
Note:
The water density in each pool can vary due to
mineral and salt content.
3. Adjust the hose weights until the cleaner sits evenly
on the bottom of the pool at a 45° angle.
