Operation and Maintenance

Daily Operation
The cleaner cycles on/off with the pool filtration pump, vacuuming and cleaning all surfaces randomly
throughout the pool. The climbing ability of the cleaner is dependent on the pool's shape and available
water flow. If the cleaner is not climbing pool walls, ensure the flow is correct by checking the wheel
speed. Also, ensure the pool surface is not covered in algae as this slippery surface may affect traction.
During each coverage pattern cycle, the cleaner travels both forward and backwards, and pivots to the
right and left. The turbines underneath the cleaner create down force for climbing and stability as well as
directing debris into the cleaner mouth. The scrubbing brushes also make contact with the pool floor to
agitate and remove small stuck-on debris.
Cleaner Vacuum Modes
Your cleaner is designed to operate with two vacuum options:
• Large debris: For vacuuming large debris, such as leaves. It is recommended that you return the
cleaner to small debris factory setting after large debris cleaning.
• Small debris (factory setting): For vacuuming smaller and heavy debris, such as sand, silt and
small stones. The pool cleaner is sent from the factory in this mode.
To avoid serious injury, make sure that the cleaner is disconnected from the hose and the suction
pump used for the cleaner is turned off prior to starting this operation.
Convert to large debris
cleaning mode:
1. Locate slot on underside of cleaner. Insert
a flat tool into the inlet adapter (Figure 10).
2. Lift up the inlet adapter and then pull it out
of the vacuum inlet.

WARNING
Convert back to small debris
cleaning mode:
1. Place the modular inlet adapter in the vacuum
inlet of the pool cleaner.
2. Push down on the modular inlet adapter until it
clicks into place (Figure 11).
