Applications & Compatibility
This cleaner is built for serious pool owners who want a high-performance pressure-side solution. It works best in in-ground pools where you can provide a dedicated booster pump and 2 ½″ vacuum line. Verify your plumbing, booster pump capacity and cleaner feed hose routing before purchase.
Installation Instructions
- Turn off the pool pump and relieve system pressure before connecting the cleaner.
- Install the feedback hose from the pressure line to the cleaner’s vacuum inlet.
- Attach the 2 ½″ vacuum elbow and hose assembly to the pool wall skimmer or vacuum port as required.
- Connect the feed hose from the booster pump to the cleaner’s jet assembly and secure the swivel connector.
- Ensure the hose length and weights are set correctly per the manual for your pool size.
- Turn on the booster pump and observe the cleaner’s movement. Ensure it reaches all areas and returns to the ultra-bag for debris capture.
Troubleshooting
-
Cleaner remains stuck or doesn't move: Check hose length, weights, and ensure the backup valve is cycling properly.
-
Pool debris still remains after cycle: Confirm booster pump flow rate is adequate, ensure the vacuum hose and inlet are sized correctly.
-
Bag fills too quickly or performance drops: Clean or replace the SuperBag and inspect drive chain and wheels for wear.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the wheels, drive chain and attachments annually. Clean debris from the SuperBag regularly to maintain optimal suction. Using the F6 model ensures efficient cleaning and better circulation, saving time and reducing pool maintenance efforts.
