Turbine Suction Cleaners IMPORTANT TIPS Some skimmers have a vari-flow or diverter valve in the bottom of the skimmer. This valve can be turned to regulate skimming and main drain suction. Turn the valve to full skim and then adjust the Flow Gauge by turning the valve toward main drain suction. Usually this valve is the same size as the Cleaner's hose end, and it will therefore be necessary to purchase a V098 Hose Adapter (see Figure 7). After the proper gauge reading has been established, the diverter valve will have to be locked in the place with a wedge of some kind so that it won't change position with operation of the Cleaner. 2. Periodically check the water flow/vacuum to be sure that your Cleaner is operating as efficiently as possible. Remember, too much vacuum is just as bad as too little. 3. Periodically check to make sure that the Cleaner hose is securely attached to its suction source (i.e. Skimmer, Skimmer Vac Plate Vac Lock, etc.) 4. Disconnect the Cleaner hose from the skimmer/regulator valve, or, if using a "dedicated line", turn cleaner valve off prior to "backwashing", so as not to restrict water flow. 5. Never coil the Cleaner hose. Coiled hose is not covered under the warranty. 6. When the Cleaner is out of the pool, always disconnect the leader hose from the Cleaner's head. 7. Always carry your Cleaner by the molded-in handle. Do not carry it by the hose. 8. When swimming in the pool, remove your Cleaner from the water. 9. If you are going to super chlorinate, shock, or add gas chlorine to your pool, make sure the cleaner and its hose are removed prior to doing so. CLEANER 7
