SECTION 2 – CORRECT SETTINGS
ADJUSTMENT SUGGESTIONS
CORRECT BALANCING
Proper balancing must be accomplished in the DEEPEST area of the pool. The
buoyancy of the hose tends to LIFT the BARACUDA

3000 especially
in deeper water. The hose weight is utilized to help neutralise the buoyant effect
of the hose. Although usually not required, if a hose weight is needed, please
contact BARACUDA
®
on 0800 110 885 whereby we will supply a hose weight at
no charge.
POOL COVERAGE
Normally it is undesirable for the return line water flow to affect the natural
movement of your BARACUDA
®
hose. However, the return line pressure can
be used to balance cleaning coverage or to guide the cleaner away from steps
and corners.
A return line located anywhere along the shaded area can be utilised to gently
push the hose, allowing your BARACUDA

®
3000 to free itself from
in-pool obstacles (Diagram 8).
