WARRIOR™ Suction Side Pool Cleaner Installation and User’s Guide
PROBLEM
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Cleaner is not moving or is moving
too slowly.
Check flow with flow gauge included or by calculating the cleaner RPM and adjust the flow
if necessary using the regulator valve. See page 5.
Check for debris inside the cleaner itself. See page 8.
Check to be sure the pump has primed. Check for leaks in the system that may prevent
proper priming.
There may not be enough flow through the system. The filter may need backwashing.
Check to be sure that the main drain and all suction lines are closed, except for the suction
line to which the cleaner is attached.
Check for obstructions in the system (e.g. debris in the filter, pump basket or pump
impeller).
Pool pump and filter system may be too small to provide proper water flow. Consult your
pool professional.
Cleaner’s right wheel will not turn when
rotated by hand.
Check for obstructions inside the cleaner itself. See page 8.
Cleaner stays in one end of the pool.
Check flow with flow gauge included or by calculating the cleaner RPM and adjust the flow
if necessary using the regulator valve. See page 5.
Check the return line water flow and redirect as necessary with the included eyeball
diverter. See page 7.
Check that hose is long enough to reach the furthest point in the pool. See page 6.
Check for proper hose float placement. The float may be in the wrong position. See page 2.
Be sure that the swivel assembly (at top of cleaner) rotates smoothly. If not, the swivel
assembly may be dirty and require cleaning.
Cleaner climbs the wall too much or climbs
out of pool.
Check flow with flow gauge included or by calculating the cleaner RPM and adjust the flow
if necessary using the regulator valve. See page 5.
Cleaner won’t climb the pool walls.
Check to be sure that the cleaner tires are not excessively worn. See page 9. Excessively
worn tires will not provide the grip necessary for your cleaner to climb pool walls.
Check flow with flow gauge included or by calculating the cleaner RPM and adjust the flow
if necessary using the regulator valve. See page 5.
Check to be sure that the leader hose has been installed and is in the correct location. See
page 2.
Check for proper hose float placement. The float may be in the wrong position. See page 2.
Cleaner stays on the main drain.
Check to be sure that main drain is closed. May need assistance from a pool professional.
Check to be sure a main drain grate is installed.
Cleaner falls on its side and takes too long to
recover.
Check for proper hose float placement. The float may be in the wrong position. See page 2.
Check to be sure that the leader hose has been installed and is in the correct location. See
page 2.
Check that the hose is long enough to reach the furthest point in the pool. See page 6.
The return eyeball fittings may be pushing the cleaner hoses away. See page 7.
