IMPORTANT: The instruction manual you are holding includes essential information on the safety measures to be implemented for
installation and start-up. Therefore, the installer as well as the user must read the instructions before beginning installation and
start-up.
Keep this manual for future reference.
For optimum performance of the VALS AUTOMATIC POOL CLEANER, we recommend you to read the following instructions.

2. GENERAL FEATURES
• VALS hydraulic suction cleaners use the
filtering system of the pool as the source of energy. They are connected to the pool cleaner inlet or the skimmer.
• The power of the swimming pool pump enables the cleaner to be moved around automatically and randomly while sucking up the dirt from the
bottom and sides of the pool. This collects in the pre-filter of the pump and in the filter. The sand filter backwash expels the suctioned dirt
through the drain.
3. INSTALLATION AND POSITIONING
For the installation of the POOL CLEANER we recommend the use of pumps with a minimum power of ¾ HP, as these usually have flow leaks
owing to debris in the prefilters or filters. The membrane impels the water several times per second and it is therefore subject to wear. The
efficiency of VALS is based largely on the condition of the membrane, which should be checked regularly
ASSEMBLY OF THE MAT
At background of the box you will find the mat.
Attach the mat by pressing it into the socket of the base prepared for this purpose.
ASSEMBLY OF THE HOSES
The VALS hose is formed by 0.7-metre sections.
The length of the hose to be used, which will adapt perfectly to the pool, is equal to the longest distance the cleaner must move in the pool from
the connection point + 1 section of hose.
In swimming pools with ladders where the suction point is in front of the steps, take the
lower step as the most distant point, Always insert the male terminal in the female terminal.
The hoses should be connected and properly tightened.
Use the CONICAL ADAPTER to connect the hose to the suction point. Its range is from 40
to 60 mm. in Ø.
Any other type of hose will reduce the performance of the cleaner. Never use a continuous self-floating hose.
We advise you to leave the VALS in the pool during the summer. If you wish to remove it while bathing, dismantle the hose and keep it stretched
out. Do no roll it or expose it to the sun.
ASSEMBLING THE ACCESSORIES
DEFLECTOR
This prevents the VALS from becoming stuck in corners, ladders or steps.
Fit the DEFLECTOR into the top tube of the pool cleaner, just below the connection between the
hose and the VALS pool cleaner.
COUNTERWEIGHT
This offsets the floating capacity of the hose and ensures that the VALS is well balanced at the
deepest part of the pool.
Place the counterweight in the hose at about 2 metres from the VALS. If the cleaner tends to rise at
the front, place the counterweight further away from the cleaner. If it rises at the back, place the
counterweight of the hose nearer to the cleaner.
A second counterweight should be used if the pool is more than 2.2 m. deep.
