ACROBAT GT RUNS THEN STOPS
1.
Refer to points under “Does not move or moves slowly”
2.
Outer extension tube may be worn out.
3.
Filter sand may need to be changed or cleaned. To check this put the fi lter on “Recirculate” if it
works now there is a fi lter problem.
4.
Pump suction may be too strong and cause unit to stick to the fl oor. To rectify this adjust the
fl ow through the ACROBAT GT by adjusting the control valve so the gate opens more easily to
bypass water. Normal setting between 2 and 4.
ACROBAT GT DOES NOT SINK
1.
Ensure there is no trapped air in the hoses or unit.
2.
The fl oat is fi lled with water.
3.
The ACROBAT GT has no weight in unit.
ACROBAT GT FALLS ON ITS SIDE
1.
The fl oat is fi lled with water.
2.
The outer extension tube is jammed and won’t swivel.
ACROBAT GT GETS STUCK IN A CERTAIN SPOT
1.
Adjust the hose length by adding or removing a hose.
2.
Ensure that the eyeball return is not interfering with the fl ow of the ACROBAT GT.
If so adjust eyeball return nozzle to direct the fl ow away from the ACROBAT GT.
3.
If the problem persists, try moving the weight along the hose or add another hose weight along
the sections of hose and place an eyeball diverter ball in the eyeball nozzle. Note not all pool
returns are the same and you may need to use a diff erent eyeball diverter from the one included
with the ACROBAT GT.
4.
Add ‘hose motors’ to aid in the manoeuvrability.
5.
A larger defl ector ring may be required.
ACROBAT GT DOES NOT CLIMB THE WALL
1.
Ensure the skimmer basket is free of any debris.
2.
Adjust the control valve to a higher setting.
3.
Check the pressure gauge on the fi lter system – the fi lter may need to be cleaned/backwashed.
ACROBAT GT CLIMBS OUT OF THE POOL
1.
Ensure the control valve is free of debris and not jammed shut.
2.
Set control valve to a lower setting to divert more water.
ACROBAT GT IS MOVING IN A SET PATTERN
1.
Ensure hoses are in a good fl exible condition and not coiled.
2.
Ensure water fl owing through return eyeballs is not being channelled so as to create a current in
the pool water that in turn forces the machine into a set operating pattern.
