Troubleshooting
If the Polaris cleaner displays the following
actions, adjustments may be necessary to restore
performance. Refer to exploded parts diagram for
part references.
Action: Cleaner hangs up on steps
or other obstacles for longer
than 3 minutes.
Solution:
Action: Polaris is sluggish, running
with less power than normal.
Solution:
Action: Polaris flies around the pool
and/or does not make contact
with the bottom.
Solution:
1. Check the wheel RPM.
2. Verify the back-up valve
is cycling.
3. Adjust the thrust jet.
4. Remove unnecessary pool
hardware or install a Ladder Guard
Kit (order part #G21 from a Polaris
dealer).
1. Check the filter screen in
the in-line filter and clean,
if necessary.
2. Clean the skimmer basket, pump
basket, and pool filter.
3. Check all of the hoses, connections,
and swivels for leaks that could
cause loss of water pressure.
4. Check the wheel RPM.
1. Confirm that the blue restrictor
disk is installed in the UWF to
decrease water flow. Or, install
the red restrictor disk to decrease
water flow even more.
2. Check the wheel RPM. If more
than 32 RPM, unscrew the
pressure relief valve to decrease
water flow to cleaner. Note: The
pressure relief valve should only
be adjusted when a restrictor is
installed.
3. Verify the back-up valve is cycling.
Hold the valve out of the water and
watch the jet. It should come on
and go off.

Action: Polaris does not back up.
Solution: 1. Verify the back-up valve
is cycling.
2. Check the wheel RPM.
3. If the bag is full, empty it.
4. If head float has water in it,
replace it.
5. Make sure feed hose is floating.
Action: Polaris only turns in one
direction.
Solution: 1. Adjust the thrust jet.
2. Make sure feed hose
is floating.
Action: Feed hose becomes tangled.
Solution: 1. Remeasure the hose to verify that
it is adjusted to the proper length
for the
pool shape.
2. With the Polaris operating, check
that the swivels in
the hose and the hose connections
turn freely.
3. Make sure feed hose
is floating.
4. With the Polaris turned off, spin
each of the wheels. All wheels
should turn together.
Action: Sweep hose is sucked into
the vacuum tube.
Solution: 1. Make sure the opening at the end
of the sweep hose
is not blocked by the sweep hose
scrubber.
2. Adjust the sweep hose to a gentle
sweeping motion.
