Operation And Maintenance; Routine Maintenance - baracuda G3 Manual De Usuario

Fine Tuning Cleaner Performance
The G3 cycles on/off with the pool filtration pump vacuuming and cleaning all surfaces randomly throughout
the pool. The coverage of the G3 is dependent on the pool's shape and available water flow. In some
applications, adjustments may be necessary to optimize cleaning coverage.
The hose weight is positioned to
compensate for the buoyancy of the hose.
A properly balanced hose will create a
45-degree angle to the cleaner and the
bottom of the pool.
In pools 8-1/2 feet or deeper, an extra hose
weight (part #W83247) may be necessary.
Add the second weight 5 to 8 feet from the
cleaner.

Routine Maintenance

To maintain performance:
• Never coil the hose. Straighten a coiled hose with warm water or by laying it in the sun for a day.
A kinked or coiled hose will adversely effect the G3's coverage of the pool.
• When not in the pool, keep the disc flat to avoid warping.
• Periodically inspect cleaner parts for wear.
• Thoroughly clean the skimmer basket, pump basket and filter regularly. Always disconnect the
cleaner from the pool wall or skimmer before cleaning or backwashing the pool filter. After cleaning
or backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five (5) minutes before re-connecting the
cleaner.
• Remove the cleaner from the pool before chemical or shock treatments. Wait a minimum
of four (4) hours after super chlorination before re-installing the cleaner

Operation and Maintenance

Incorrect Correct
Balance
A return line can be used to guide the cleaner
away from steps or areas with V-shaped corners,
and reduce patterning.
Direct the return to gently push the cleaner hose
by positioning the return directional so it aims
towards the wall on the opposite side of the pool,
and surface movement is visible 8 feet out
from the return.
In this example, any return within the grey area
can be used.
