Assemble the Cleaner
3
1.
Use the nut to attach the feed hose to the
feed pipe.
2.
Pull out the bag and attach the bag collar to
the feed hose.
3.
Push head float all the way in against the
cleaner body.
4.
Turn on the pool filtration pump and allow
it to prime before turning on the booster
pump.
Check for Proper RPM
4
Before operating the Polaris, check for proper wheel revolutions per minute (RPM). For maximum efficiency, the
Polaris should operate between 28 and 32 RPM.
1.
Mark the single-wheel side tire.
2.
Turn pump on, hold cleaner below
water level and count wheel revolutions
for one minute.
If count is less than 28 RPM:
•
Check the filter screen in the
in-line filter for debris that restricts
water flow.
•
Clean the skimmer, filter and pump
basket, clearing debris that restricts water flow.
•
Check the hoses, connections and swivels for leaks that cause
loss of water pressure.
•
Remove the blue restrictor disk from the UWF.
•
If an adjustable valve is installed on the booster pump or cleaner line, open it completely so water can flow
freely to the Polaris.
If count is more than 32 RPM:
•
Replace the blue restrictor disk in the UWF with the red restrictor. If the flow is still too high, unscrew the
pressure relief valve until the proper RPM is reached. Note: The pressure relief valve should only be adjusted
when a restrictor is installed.
•
If an adjustable valve is installed after the booster pump, adjust it to reduce the water flow to the cleaner.
