About Maintenance; Hose Storage - AquaTools AT5800 El Manual Del Propietario

Hazardous suction. Stop pump before
attempting to clean pool cleaner.
• Keep skimmer basket and pump strainer basket clean
and free of debris.
• If cleaner jams with large debris (leaves, sticks, etc.), try
cleaning debris first from bottom of unit. If this doesn't
clear unit, remove top swivel assembly (turn 1/4 turn)
and clear the debris from the top.
• Remove the pool cleaner from the pool before super
chlorinating (shocking) or chemical balancing. Wait at
least four hours after the chemical procedure before
reinstalling the cleaner.
• Make sure that the cleaner's brush bristles don't
become deformed during storage. Store the unit so that
it doesn't sit on the bristles and so that nothing com-
presses them.
• If possible, do not coil the hose. Remove the hose from
the cleaner when removing the cleaner from the pool.
Store the hose flat and straight.
• Periodically examine bristles and vacuum skirt for wear
or distortion. Replace if necessary. See "Assembly",
Page 10.
Best: Hose stored correctly – laid
out straight, not connected to
cleaner.
ABOUT MAINTENANCE AND CARE

HOSE STORAGE

OK, Not Recommended: Hose is
disconnected from cleaner and
loosely coiled (no sharp bends).
• If necessary to remove oscillator, see "Disassembly",
Page 9.
• Don't store the cleaner with the hose connected to the
cleaner body or with the hose coiled. To do so will
cause the hose to take a set or kink over a period of
time. When reinstalled in the pool, the hose will tend to
stay coiled and will cause the cleaner to malfunction.
• If the hose has taken a set, uncoil it as far as possible
without damaging it and lay it out in the sun for several
hours to straighten itself. Once it has relaxed and
straightened out, store it laid out flat and straight (no
coiling) if possible. If no storage area is available that
will allow this, coil the hose as loosely as possible and
expect to have to let it straighten for a while before
using the cleaner again.
• Make sure the lift brush is retracted during storage or
else that the cleaner is supported such that the lift brush
is not taking any of the cleaner's weight. If the lift brush
is down during storage and the cleaner rests on it, the
brush bristles will collapse over time and the cleaner
will no longer turn during operation as it was designed
to do.
Wrong: Storing cleaner with hose
connected will damage hose and
void the hose warranty.
