6. Put the cleaner back to the pool floor and turn the pool pump on.
Calculating Cleaner Speed (RPM)
Following the steps below will allow you to calculate the cleaner speed and adjust
RPM as needed.
1. While the cleaner is running, bring the cleaner up to just beneath the pool's
water surface.
Note: Be sure to keep the cleaner submerged while the pump is operating. This
prevents the cleaner from pulling air into the pool system.
2. Count the number of full rotations made by the wheel over a period of one
minute, The number of rotations will give you the revolutions per minute; or
RPM's, an easy way to be sure you are counting full rotations is by counting the
number of times the wheel hump passes by the swivel assembly.
3. For proper performance, the cleaner operates between 12-14 RPM
If the RPM is below 12, adjust the regulator valve (rotate adjustment knob
clockwise) and repeat steps 1-2 until the RPM falls back into the optimal range.
If the RPM is higher than 14, adjust the regulator valve (rotate adjustment knob
counterclockwise) and repeat steps 1-2 until the RPM falls back into the optimal
range.
