ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Bag

Remove the bag collar from the feed hose and depress the prongs to release the bag from 

the cleaner. Open the bag closure and dump out the debris.

FINE TUNING THE POLARIS CLEANER

When operating correctly, the Polaris 380 vacuums, sweeps and scrubs all surfaces randomly 

throughout the pool. Approximately every three minutes the Polaris 380 goes into back-up 

mode. This action pulls the Polaris away from pool obstacles and increases its random 

pattern.

Thrust Jet Adjustment

The thrust jet powers the direction of the 

Polaris. Factory position is eleven o’clock, 

but depending on the pool, other settings are 

helpful.

Sweep Hose Adjustment

The sweep hose should move in a 

gentle sweeping motion. To adjust, 

turn off the booster pump and turn the 

sweep hose adjustment screw. Turn 

clockwise to decrease the motion.

Bag Collar

Empty the filter bag when it is 

half full, especially if the dirt 

load is sand.

It is easier to empty the filter 

bag when it is dry. Alternate 

between two bags.

Cleaning the Filters

Always disconnect the Polaris before cleaning 

or backwashing the pool filter, and let the 

filtration system run for at least five minutes 

before reconnecting the cleaner.
To clean the in-line filter screen, pull it out of 

the filter assembly, rinse it and press it firmly 

back into place

Storage and Winterizing

Never store the Polaris in direct sunlight. When storing for the winter, drain out all the water 

(freeze damage is not covered under the warranty). Remove the UWF from the pool wall by 

attaching the Quick Disconnect and using pulling pressure to unscrew. If necessary, use the 

UWF Removal Tool (part #10-102-00) available from any authorized Polaris dealer.
