Large Capacity Debris Bag

Attaching Debris Bag

1 . Place the frame of the Debris Bag against the back
of the Cleaner as shown.
2 . Press down on the top corners of the frame.
3 . Press down on the top-center of the frame to lock
the Debris Bag in place.
R e m oving Debris Bag
1 . Pull the top of the Debris Bag frame back (1) and then up (2).
Note: If you allow the bag to dry, the debris will be easier to remove.

Emptying Debris Bag

1 . Hold Bag over trash can or wherever debris is to be placed.
2 . Slide Float Closure off of bag .
3 . Hold open edges apart and shake debris from bag .
4 . Slide Float Closure onto bag .

Sand (dense debris)

If too much sand or heavy debris is collected in the Debris Bag ,
the bag will " d r o o p " over the hose while on the bottom and may
not be able to ascend to the surface properly. If you observe the
b ag drooping over the hose turn the booster pump off and empty
the Debris Bag .
N o t e : Pools with excessive amounts of sand should be manually
vacuumed before installing the Phantom.

M ov e m e n t
When the Phantom cleaner is operating properly it will randomly
t r avel around the bottom, sides and surface of the pool in " AU T O "
m o d e . The cleaner will clean the bottom and walls 2/3 of its
cycle and skim the surface 1/3 of the cycle. In " T O P " or " B O T "
(Bottom) mode, the cleaner will stay in the Skimming or Bottom
& Wall mode (respectively) until the switch is changed to a
d i fferent mode.
S p i n - O u t
The cleaner will periodically stop and rotate clockwise in order
to provide better pool coverage and to escape from corners and
other obstacles. If the cleaner is momentarily stopped in a corner
or at an obstacle, it will Spin-Out to free itself and continue
moving randomly about the pool. The Spin-Out Cam determines
the frequency of the Spin-Outs. The cleaner comes equipped with
3 Spin-Out Cams; every 75, 50 (factory installed) or 30 seconds
(75 second and 30 second Cams are in the A c c e s s o ry bag ) . To
change Spin-Out Frequency see " C h a n ging Spin-Out Cam".

Sweep Hose

The Sweep Hose should move in a slow, u n d u l ating (snake-like)
m o t i o n . It moves debris out of tight corners so the cleaner can
vacuum the debris at a more accessible spot in the pool.
The Sweep Hose also stirs fine debris into suspension fo r
removal by the pool's filtration system. The Sweep Hose Rollers
are wear parts. When the rollers wear-down to the outer gr o o v e
( Wear Line) replace the Wear Rollers (P/N AX5006A) a bag of
extra Wear Rollers is included. If a hole forms in the Sweep Hose,
it must be replaced with a genuine Hayward Phantom Sweep
Hose (P/N A X 5 0 0 0 R S H A ) .
C l e a n i n g
When the cleaner is on the bottom or walls debris is vacuumed
from below the cleaner and passed through the vacuum tube
into the Debris Bag . When the cleaner is skimming the surface
w ater jets push the debris into the Debris Bag where it is held
until the user empties the Bag . The cleaner may not pick-up all
debris on the first pass, but your pool should be clean in 3-hours
or less (depending on pool size, s h ape and the amount of debris
in the pool).
Observe the Phantom's operation at regular intervals and empty
the bag as necessary. O n ly operate the Phantom for the time
n e c e s s a ry to clean the pool. Excessive use is unnecessary and
will cause premature cleaner wear.

Fine Debris

The Large Capacity Debris Bag , as with other pressure-side
c l e a n e r s , does not hold very fine sand or other powder- l i k e
d e b r i s . Powder will be blown through the bag and into
suspension so it can be filtered by the pool's filtration system.
Use Only Genuine Hayward Replacement Parts.

Sand (Dense Debris)
If too much sand or heavy debris is collected in the Debris Bag ,
the bag will " d r o o p " over the hose while on the bottom and may
not be able to ascend to the surface. If you observe the bag
drooping over the hose turn the booster pump off and empty
the Debris Bag .
Pools with excessive amounts of sand should be manually
vacuumed before installing the Phantom.
The Phantom is designed to operate with 1/2-cup of sand and
the remainder of its bag filled with leav e s , a c o r n s , gr a s s e s , e t c .

Pressure Hose

This hose has been designed to minimize the forming of loops
and knotting. Most of the pressure hose should remain below the
surface of the water the majority of the time. If the hose forms a
loop the cleaner will eventually work it out. In the rare event the
hose becomes knotted or tangled, it will limit the range of
the cleaner. To get optimal coverag e , remove knots or bad
tangles if fo u n d .
