Hose Assembly

For best results and to maintain proper operation, use 
only original Pentair parts and hoses.                                  
1.  To connect the hose sections, wet the ends in the 

pool water, then twist and push the female ends 
onto the male ends.

2.  Connect the leader hose to the cleaner swivel.   

See 

Figure 3

. 

Note:

 The leader hose is 12 inches (30.5 cm) in 

length and shorter than the other sections included 
in the hose set. The leader hose is also marked with a red 
sticker. Failure to use this leader hose section will hinder cleaner 
performance

3.  The hose should reach from the suction port connection to the 

farthest point of the pool, plus one section and the leader hose. 
See 

Figure 5

.

4.  Install the hose float onto the second length of hose. The float 

should be placed 20 inches (50.8 centimeters) above the cleaner. 
See 

Figure 4

.

5.  Make sure that all connections are snug.
6.  The overall length of hose needed will be determined by the 

distance from the point at which you attach the hose to the 
suction port to the furthest point in the pool, plus one length and 
the leader hose. See 

Figure 5
