Installation
IMPORTANT: Pools with Variable Speed Pumps - The cleaner requires a minimum & maximum
rate of flow to operate optimally. If the variable speed pump has multiple speeds programmed,
use the Flow Gauge to calibrate the recommended flow rate at the pump's highest programmed
speed. This can be done by the using the Flow Regulator Valve and adjusting pump speed
manually to attain the correct flow at the highest preset speed. See page 5 for more information.
By using the highest preset speed, you'll ensure that all other settings will never exceed the
recommended maximum flow rate.
IMPORTANT: Pools with Heating - Heating must be turned OFF whenever the TracVac™ is in
use. If using Solar Heating and the TracVac™, always alternate schedules.
Pool Preparation

Use only hayward
Manually remove very large and excessive debris
from pool (ie. post- storm, spring cleaning/pool
opening situations).
Perform a backwash or clean filter cartidges, clean
your filter, skimmer baskets and pump basket.
Check that chemical balance is correct. If not, take
the time to correct it before using the TracVac™. If
you chemically shock the pool, wait 1-2 days before
continuing.
Point all your return fittings downward to maximize
cleaner pool coverage.
