Water Resistant Main Motorized Unit - SET UP• Wheels installation ![KOKIDO CR50 Water Resistant Main Motorized Unit

  • SET UP 1](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/KOKIDO-CR50-Water- Resistant-Main-Motorized-Unit-SET-UP-1.jpg)– Slide the wheel “#6” onto the axis of the frame “#1”.
    – Put the retaining ring “#11” over the wheel and align the hook end of retaining ring to the groove around the axis.
    – Use a screwdriver to assist with pushing the retaining ring completely down into the groove of the axis.
    – Make sure the retaining ring is in place and the wheel is totally secured under the retaining ring before moving onto the next step.
    • Connecting tube X to hubsKOKIDO CR50 Water Resistant Main Motorized
Unit - • Connecting tube X to hubs The “X” tube section has a smaller diameter and the “Y” tube section has a bigger diameter. The “Y” tube section is to be placed in the middle to connect sections “X” on each side.
    – Align the groove on the hub with pre-drilled holes on one of tubes “X”, and insert the hub “#3” into one end of tube “X”.
    Secure the assembly with two self tapping screws “#9” on pre-drilled holes.
    NOTE: Make sure to follow the direction as shown in the diagram above to align the hub to the tube.
    – Follow the same assembly instruction to connect the hub of main frame “#2” to another tube “X” and secure the assembly with self tapping screws “#9”.
    • Connecting the crank to the frame and hub (preinstalled with tube x)KOKIDO CR50 Water Resistant Main Motorized Unit - • Connecting tube X to
hubs 1 Insert the axle of short hub “#3” through the chamber at the top of the frame “#1”. Align and slide the crank wheel “#4” onto the hub axle until it stops. Put the set screw “#7” on the hole of the crank and then fasten it by the hex wrench “#10” to secure the crank on the short hub.
    IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT DRIVE THE CRANK UNLESS IT IS IN MANUAL OPERATION.
    • Configuring the tube set
    Figuring out the required total length of assembled tube set.
    – Measure the maximum width of your pool (between the pool inner edge) = L1.
    – Insert the tubes “X” into the tubes “Y”, and slide them until you have the required size + 6 inches (15cm) margin on both the right and left side of L1 as shown in the diagram.
    – Ensure that the tube “Y” is exactly centered between tube “X”, Z1 and Z3 are equal.
    – Also ensure that there is a minimum tube overlap “OL” of 17.5 inches (45cm) in each tube connection.
    Tips: After figuring out the required overlapping that achieve a total length of (L1 + 12inches (30cm)), measure and use a pencil to mark a line on tube “X” as a finishing line for overlapping.
    The maximum loading weight is 45Kg (99lbs) including tube sets and a wet pool solar cover.KOKIDO CR50 Water Resistant Main Motorized Unit - • Connecting

    – If you have grommets on the cover, you can put the plastic end of elastic strap “S1” through the grommet and then turn the plastic end by 90 degrees (perpendicular to the straps, Diagram A ).
    – If there are no grommets, you can attach the cover clip “S2” by snapping them onto the cover. Make sure to position the cover clips along the cover at the same intervals as the elastic straps “S1” will be attached to the tube. After fixing the clips to the cover, insert the plastic end through the slot of each clip (Diagram B ).
    – You can adjust the length of the string by sliding the plastic end along the string, and then tying a knot to fix the desired length (Diagram C ).
    – Ensure the length of the string allows the cover to lay flat on the pool to prevent wind from getting inside under the cover.
    • For round or oval-shaped in-ground pools
    – Lay the cover over the pool and align accordingly. Fold an edge on the cover so that the width is sufficient to assemble a cover clip “S2” on it. Position the cover clips along the cover at the same intervals as they will be attached to the tube.
    Follow the steps illustrated for diagram B and C to fix the cover strings to the cover clip and adjust the desired strap length. KOKIDO CR50 Water

Resistant Main Motorized Unit - GETTING STARTED • Charging the battery
IMPORTANT NOTE: Fully charge the battery (about 3-4 hours) before using it for the first time. KOKIDO CR50 Water Resistant Main Motorized Unit - Charging
the battery 1Red light – Charging
Green light – Charged
Note: The Battery case is not waterproof.
Make sure it is dry at all times.
WARNING!
– Use only the original external adaptor provided.
– Charging must be done indoors, in a well-ventilated area away from sunlight, children, heat, ignition sources, and with an ambient temperature between 5°C(41°F) and 35°C (95°F).
NOTE: Do not leave the battery charged for over 20 hours.

  1. Connect the battery case to the adaptor as shown above. Connect the adaptor to the power source. Once the battery case begins charging, the indicator light on the external adaptor will turn red.
    Normally, it takes about 2.5-3.5 hours to reach a full charge. The indicator light will turn green when the battery is almost fully charged.
    • Immediately disconnect the external adaptor from the power source if you detect any of the following conditions:
    – Offensive or unusual odor
    – Excessive heat
    – Deformation, cracks, leaks
    – Smoke

  2. When charging is complete, disconnect the adaptor from the power source and unplug it from the battery case. Reverse steps to connect the battery case to the motorized unit and close the battery compartment cover.
    IMPORTANT NOTE : Make sure to close the battery compartment cover completely; otherwise water may leak in during operation and damage to the battery.

NOTE: Rechargeable lithium-ion battery is classified as a consumable item. It has a limited life and will gradually lose its capacity to hold a charge. Therefore, the running time of the motorized unit will gradually reduce after repeated charging and discharging throughout its product life.
NOTE: Let the battery case rest for around 30 – 40 minutes before charging it again.
