5. OPERATION
The cartridge inside the backpack Skimmer is the element that cleans the water. It consists of a fabric with a very fine mesh that retains the
dirt.
Frequency in cleaning the cartridge depends on the periods of use of the filter, the environment, trees, pollen, insects and how often the pool is
used, which are factors that determine the level of dirt of the pool.
When it is observed that the amount of water returned to the pool decreases, the cartridge should be cleaned (see section 6.1. Cleaning the
cartridge).
To maintain the pool water in good condition, chemical products must also be used as recommended by the manufacturer (chlorine, anti-algae
products, etc.).
The life span of the backpack filter will be longer if it is used for maximum periods of 4 hours. Daily filtering needs depend on the volume of
water in the swimming pool in relation to the 3.8 m
Leave the motor off for at least 2 hours between each operation period.
6. MAINTENANCE:
6.1. CLEANING THE CARTRIDGE
Disconnect the apparatus from the power supply.
Remove the cover and the basket.
Unscrew the cartridge from its position and remove it
from inside the backpack Skimmer (Fig. 7).
Place the cartridge under a jet of water from a low-
pressure garden hose, until it is clean (Fig. 6).
Insert the cartridge with the threaded end facing
downwards and screw it back into place.
Place the pre-filter basket and cover back into place.
6.2. CLEANING THE FLOOR OF THE SWIMMING
POOL
The backpack Skimmer can be used to clean the
floor of the swimming pool, with one of the following
or "Triangular" floor cleaner + adapter cover / AR-2062.
To acquire these products, enquire at your dealers or the After-sales Service of the swimming pool manufacturer. Always use original
spare parts.
A hose that is longer than necessary to reach all points of the pool will hinder its use. Cut the excess length of hose. Ensure that rubber
terminals do not leak.
6.2.1. CONNECTING THE FLOOR CLEANER
Disconnect the apparatus from the power supply.
Place the suction cover accessory inside the Skimmer with the inlet facing downwards and without removing the basket.
Prime the hose
From INSIDE THE POOL pass the end of the hose through the Skimmer flap opening and taking care not to let air in, connect it to the
suction cover inlet. Connection will be easier if the suction cover is held at a slant.
Then place it into position horizontally inserting more hose. TAKE CARE NOT TO DAMAGE THE SKIMMER FLAP OPENING WHILE
PERFORMING THIS OPERATION.
THE WATER LEVEL OF THE SKIMMER SHOULD BE AT MAXIMUM AND ABOVE THE JOINT BETWEEN THE COVER AND THE
HOSE TO PREVENT AIR FROM ENTERING.
Start-up the backpack Skimmer and proceed to clean the floor of the swimming pool.
6.2.2. PRIMING THE FLOOR CLEANER HOSE:
Slowly place the floor cleaner inside the pool with a pole and the hose connected vertically, letting it fill with water and keeping the rest
of the hose out of the water.
Gradually place the hose in the water in lengths of 50 cm., which should be immersed as they fill with water. When the end is reached,
the hose should be full of water and totally immersed.
If the hose is not fully primed, the floor cleaner will not be able to suction and the water treatment apparatus may be damaged if used
empty.
