Remove the existing suction wall fitting or adapter. Apply pool-safe thread sealant to the 1½″ MPT threads and screw in the W400BBKP fitting until flush and secure. Connect the cleaner hose to the basket port, test cleaner operation, remove the hose and verify the lid closes securely. Confirm there are no leaks and that water flow is maintained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaintenance Tip\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspect the lid, basket and fitting annually or when removing the cleaner hose. Clean out debris from the basket and verify the lid mechanism engages and seals properly. Replace the fitting if you observe cracks, scoring on threads, or if the lid fails to close — proper fit ensures safe suction-side cleaner operation and pool compliance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797758595247,"sku":"W400BBKP","price":31.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/6415\/2239\/files\/hayward-vaclock-kit-black-free-rotation-w400bbkp-cleaner-parts-3597222.jpg?v=1777066893","url":"https:\/\/freshized.com\/products\/haywardvaclockkitblackfreerotationw400bbkphppw400bbkp","provider":"Freshized","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
