best in your pool: 

 

 

 

 

vacuuming up debris in its path. 

 

 

MAINTENANCE

 

 

 

 

 

  The turbine is moving freely and is not obstructed by debris. See 

“Removing Debris from the Turbine” below. 

 

Figure 18 

on the next page. 

We recommend that you leave the cleaner in your pool, except 

during chemical shock treatments. 

•  During 

swimming it is easy to unplug the cleaner  and pull it to 

one side. 

 

Note: 

When storing the cleaner, do not coil the hose. Lay the 

 

 

 

performance. Should replacement be required, insist on genuine 

Pentair cleaner hose.

and disconnect the cleaner from the leader hose. 

2.    Check to see if anything is clogged inside the cleaner. Do this by 

to rotate the right side wheel forward. If the wheel rotates 

 

 

 

front of the cleaner by pulling it out and down. 

This will separate the top cover from the cleaner body and you 

body (see
