K487BLU REV A :Note The (V094) regulator valve and the Hayward skimmer vacuum plate can only be used to reduce an initial vacuum reading that is too high. The regulator valve and the skimmer vacuum plate cannot be used to increase the initial vacuum reading. An initial reading that is too low to meet the water flow setting necessary to operate the cleaner is indicative of a system problem, and not a problem with the cleaner. Contact your Hayward Blue Dealer for assistance with this situation. If you have connected your hose to a Hayward vac lock installed on the pool wall, it may be necessary to adjust the vacuum/water flow using a diverter valve at the filter system. The handle on the diverter valve should be turned so that the flow gauge which is installed in the Hayward Blu hose reads properly (See Figure 2). After the diverter valve has been properly adjusted, the valve handle position should be marked so that the water flow can be adjusted by referring to the mark on the valve rather than reinstalling the flow gauge on the hose each time an adjustment is necessary. Step 7 Turn off pump, remove the flow gauge from the hose and store in a convenient place. You may need to use the flow gauge to check the vacuum/water flow from time to time if the Hayward Blu is connected to your skimmer and you are using a Hayward regulator valve or a skimmer vacuum plate. If you are using a Hayward vac lock connection, regular use of the flow gauge will only be necessary if you neglect to mark the valve handle position at the equipment. Step 8 Check the rear flap adjuster dial setting at the left rear of the Hayward Blu cleaner. It should be set at position number II which is the middle position (See Figure 5). Submerge the Hayward Blu cleaner into the water and remove all of the entrapped air. When escaping air bubbles cease, you are ready to connect the hose. Connect the hose cuff of the leader hose to the Hayward Blu cleaner and submerge the hose to remove all air similar to process used when vacuuming the pool with a standard hand-vacuum (See Figure 6). Do not use the return line inlet water to fill the Hayward Blu hose since this will force air into the cleaner head and possibly cause performance problems. 10 HHaayywwaarrdd oonnllyy gguuaarraanntteeeess tthhee qquuaaUUlliittssyyee,, ppooeeff rrnnffoooorrnnmmggaaeennnnccuueeiinnaaeennddHHaassyyaawwffeeaattrryyddoommff iiaattsnsnuuppffrraaooccddttuuuurrcceettsdsd wwppaahhrreettnnss wwaassiillsslleevvmmooiibbddlleeaaddllllwwwwiiaatthhrrrraaggnneettnnyyuu..iinnee HHaayywwaarrdd mmaannuuffaaccttuurreedd ppaarrttss.. 220318_BluManual_r3.indd 10 1/14/13 1:27 PM

The (V094) regulator valve and the Hayward skimmer vacuum plate can only be used to reduce an initial vacuum reading
that is too high.
The regulator valve and the skimmer vacuum plate cannot be used to increase the initial vacuum reading.
An initial reading that is too low to meet the water flow setting necessary to operate the cleaner is indicative of a system
problem, and not a problem with the cleaner.
Contact your Hayward Blue Dealer for assistance with this situation.
If you have connected your hose to a Hayward vac lock installed on the pool wall, it may be necessary to adjust the
vacuum/water flow using a diverter valve at the filter system.
The handle on the diverter valve should be turned so that
the flow gauge which is installed in the Hayward Blu hose reads properly (See Figure 2).
After the diverter valve has been
properly adjusted, the valve handle position should be marked so that the water flow can be adjusted by referring to the
mark on the valve
rather than reinstalling the flow gauge on the hose each time an adjustment is necessary.
Step 7
Turn off pump, remove the flow gauge from the hose and store in a convenient place.
You may need to use the flow
gauge to check the vacuum/water flow from time to time if the Hayward Blu is connected to your skimmer and you are
using a Hayward regulator valve or a skimmer vacuum plate.
If you are using a Hayward vac lock connection, regular use
of the flow gauge will only be necessary if you neglect to mark the valve handle position at the equipment.
Step 8

It should be set at position number II
which is the middle position (See Figure 5).
