with less power than normal.
1. Check the filter screen (#42)
in the Quick Disconnect (#45)
and clean, if necessary.
2. Clean the skimmer basket,
pump basket, and pool filter.
3. Check all of the hoses,
connections, and swivels
(#48) for leaks that could
cause loss of water pressure.
4. Check the wheel RPM.
Polaris flies around the pool
and/or does not make contact
with the bottom.
1. Check the wheel RPM. If
more than 32 RPM, unscrew
the pressure relief valve (#44)
to decrease water flow to
cleaner.
2. Confirm that the blue
restrictor disc is installed in
the UWF to decrease water
flow. Or, install the red
restrictor disc to decrease
water flow even more.

check that the swivels (#48)
in the hose and the hose
connections turn freely.
