Operation and Maintenance

Fine Tuning Cleaner Performance
The G3 / G3 PRO cycles on/off with the pool filtration pump vacuuming and cleaning all surfaces randomly
throughout the pool. The coverage of the G3 / G3 PRO 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 ½ ft. (2.6 m) or deeper, an extra
hose weight (part #W83247) may be neces-
sary. Add the second weight 5 to 8 ft.
(1.5 to 2.4 m) 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 / G3 PRO'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

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 ft. (2.4 m) out
from the return.
In this example, any return within the grey area
can be used.
