Installation Notes
Turn off the pool pump and remove the cleaner from service. Remove the old axle, guard and wheel assembly. Slide the new C66 axle into position, secure the washer and nut, ensure the guard skirt seats properly and the wheel rotates freely. Re-install the cleaner and verify correct operation.
Maintenance Tip
Each season, inspect the axle and guard for wear, cracks, or grit accumulation. Replace if the wheel becomes hard to turn or sand builds up in the guard area. Maintaining a clean axle assembly helps extend cleaner life and maintain full coverage.
