SETUP INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT PREPARATION INFORMATION

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT PREPARATION INFORMATION

• The Auto cleaner operates from the pressure side of the pool water return connector (water from the filter pump to the pool).
• if an intex saltwater system or ozone Generator is attached to the pool, disconnect these sanitation devices from the circulation line first before operating the Auto cleaner. once the Auto cleaner has finished cleaning the pool, disconnect, remove the Auto cleaner from the pool and resume the sanitation device operation.
• The Auto cleaner must be connected to a filter pump with a pump flow rate between 1600 – 3500 gallons/hour (6056 – 13248 liters/hour).
• for intex® above ground frame pools with 1-1/2” (38 mm) threaded strainer connector hose fitting (not suitable for Easy set pools or pools with inflatable top ring).
• Up to 26 ft (7.92 m) round shape.
• Up to 32 ft x 16 ft (9.75 m x 4.88 m) rectangular/oval shape.
• first assemble your pool and filter pump, and then set up the auto cleaner.
• if using a sand filter, ensure the sand media is clean by backwashing it first. Run the filter pump for 10-15 minutes before connecting the auto cleaner to the water return connector.
• The auto cleaner will not work if the filter pump is not operating.
• The auto cleaner is designed to clean the pool as follow:
• The brushes from the auto cleaner remove the fine dirt from the wall and floor.
• The fine sediments and debris on the floor are agitated by the auto cleaner movement. This allows the filtration system to filter out the fine sediments suspended in the water, while the auto cleaner pick up the heavy debris on the floor.
• The movement of the auto cleaner around the pool prevents the water from stagnating. Thus helping circulate the pool water through the filtration system.

Before setup, make sure that:

• The filter pump is turned off, and disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
• The pool is free from objects that will hinder the auto cleaner free movements by removing the ladder, surface skimmer, water sprayer (if applicable), floats or any other objects from the pool.
• The pool wall or floor are free from algae. Algae will cause the wheels to slip, block the flow of water into the cleaner and hinder the auto cleaner movement. Treat the pool water with algaecide and wait for the algae to shed before using the auto cleaner. see your local pool supply specialist for algae treatment solutions. check and clean the debris net more frequently.

1. from inside of the pool, unscrew the nozzle from the water return connector. see fig. 1.
   NOTE: The device operates from the pressure side of the pool water return connector (water flowing back from the filter pump to the pool).

2. Make sure the micro-screen (5) is inside the pressure release valve (6), then screw the pressure release valve set to the threaded strainer connector, from inside of the pool. see fig. 2.

3. from inside of the pool, attach the strainer grid extension fitting (12) over the suction outlet strainer grid. see fig. 3. NOTE: Remove the strainer grid extension fitting (12) from the suction outlet grid when the auto cleaner is not in use or disconnected from the pool.

4. screw the hose (9) with the hose collar nut (8) to the pressure release valve set (6). see fig. 4.

5. Extend the hose (9) to the opposite side of the pool wall so that it over hang the wall and cut the excess hose with a scissor, refer to below table and fig 5.
   Note: Unscrew (clockwise direction) the hose collar nut (8) from the other end of the hose (9) before cutting the excess hose. screw  (counter- clockwise direction) the hose collar nut (8) back onto the main hose (9) after cutting.

Brush assembly. see fig. 6.
NOTE: Remove the brushes from underneath the device when vacuuming large debris or leaves on the pool floor.

from outside of the pool, connect the other end of hose with the hose collar nut (8) to the auto pool cleaner water inlet. Vertically insert the hose collar nut (8) into the water inlet, while pushing down the hose collar nut, turn the hose collar nut clockwise to tighten the hose. To remove the hose, while pushing down the hose collar nut, turn the collar nut counter-clockwise. see fig. 7.

hold the cleaner with the top facing up. slowly lower the device into the water to evacuate the air inside the cleaner and the cleaner will gradually sink to the bottom of the pool floor. stretch out the hose by slowly pulling the auto cleaner across the pool to the opposite side. Make sure the hose is stretched out in order to prevent any entanglement. see fig. 8.

Turn on the filter pump and make sure water is flowing through the micro- screen (5) and the pressure release valve (6). The auto cleaner is now moving and vacuuming the pool floor and pool wall. see fig. 9.
Note: The cartridge filter pump or sand filter pump will clean the pool water. it’s essential to clean or replace the filter cartridge or backwash sand media frequently to keep the water clean.
if the Auto cleaner is paired up with a sand filter pump, the system flow will diminish and the pressure will rise as indicated by the sand filter pump pressure gauge reading (from green to yellow zone), this is normal. Disconnect the Auto cleaner from the pool and check if the sand filter pressure gauge reading will drop back to the green zone. Refer to the sand filter pump manual for more details.

IMPORTANT NOTE

if the auto cleaner starts to stir the debris, sediments on the pool floor, you will require to clean or replace the filter cartridge more frequently as the fine sediments are retained by the cartridge. Also clean the debris net (3) and micro-screen (5) frequently.
