Care and Maintenance

The Tracker

 pool 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 your Tracker is not climbing the pool walls, ensure the flow is correct 

by counting wheel speed. Also, ensure the pools surface is not covered in algae as this slippery surface 

will affect the cleaner’s traction.
During each coverage pattern cycle, the Tracker cleaner moves forward and pivots to the left. The power 

scrubbers underneath the cleaner create down force for climbing and stability as well as directing debris 

into the cleaner mouth.

Removing the cleaner out of your pool

It is most important to disconnect the head of the cleaner from the leader  

hose section when you take the cleaner out of the pool.

Backwashing the Pool Filter

Always disconnect the Tracker from the pool wall before cleaning  

or backwashing the pool filter. After cleaning or backwashing, let the filtration  

system run for at least three (3) minutes to flush out the suction lines  

before re-connecting the cleaner.

Adding Chemicals to the Pool

Remove the cleaner from the pool for at least four (4) hours when adding chemicals.

Storage and Winterizing

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

damage is not covered by the warranty). Remove all connectors and adapters from the dedicated suction 

line or skimmer. When storing the cleaner, even for short times, do not coil the hose as the hose may 

develop memory which can affect cleaner performance. Disassemble the hoses and layout flat to store.
