Astrapool AspiD, Installation And Maintenance Manual

ADJUSTING THE BALANCE

For optimum performance, the ASPID should be well balanced in the deepest part of the pool.  As a result of its floating capacity, the hose tends
to lift the ASPID, particularly in deep water.

6. MAINTENANCE OF THE ASPID

1. During the winter season when the pool is not in use, the apparatus and the hoses should be fully cleaned with clean water. Leave to dry and
keep in a dry, frost-free place. The lengths of hose should be dismantled and kept stretched out.

2. During the bathing season, we recommend you to leave the ASPID in the pool. If you wish to remove it while bathing, dismantle the hose, but 
do not roll it or leave it exposed to the sun.

3. Check the wear of the accessories from time to time. The flexible base, the disc and the deflectors are essential parts.

4. UV sunrays, water and chemical products used for water treatment of the pool may damage the condition of the ASPID. To lengthen the life 
span of the ASPID and the hoses:

x

Check that the pH is constantly at the level recommended by your dealer. A low or high pH will damage the majority of plastic and rubber
elements and will seriously damage the ASPID.

x

Remove the pool cleaner from the pool before performing chemical shock treatment, and do not install again until at least 8 hours later.

Note: The severe operation conditions of a pool cleaner (chemical products, UV rays, etc.) may discolour the pool cleaner in the long
term, even under normal operation.  However, this will not affect its cleaning capacity.

5. Water below than 20º may limit the efficiency of automatic pool cleaners.

MAINTENANCE OF THE SUCTION MECHANISM

The ASPID is equipped with a robust swing system to enable the pool cleaner to move quickly and suction the large majority of waste usually
found in a swimming pool. 

This system means that waste flows freely and in some cases this causes the ball to become blocked. Clean the obstructing dirt to unblock the

BALL

 leaving it to move freely in its cavity. 

CHANGING AND REPLACING THE BALL 

DISCONNECT THE ASPID FROM THE HOSE 

1. Lever off  the upper shell using a screwdriver

2. Lift the cover of the suction cavity

3. Replace the ball (4406012104) as shown in the drawing

4. Position the cover and upper shell in place ensuring that they are well fastened

5. Reinstall the ASPID and start-up the pump
