Operation and Routine Maintenance
The Polaris 150 cycles on/off with the pool
filtration pump vacuuming and cleaning all
surfaces randomly throughout the pool. The
climbing ability of the Polaris is dependent
on the pool's shape and available water flow.
It will climb better in pools without sharp
angles or curves in the transition from the
pool floor to the pool wall.
The shoe provides traction and protects the
Polaris and pool surface. Replace it before
nubs on the bottom are worn flat.
The surface disk enables the cleaner to
climb and remove small debris. Replace
when outer edge is thin or worn.
The bypass intake regulates the water flow
and allows collection of larger debris. Keep
intake clear of debris. Replace bypass disk
and o-ring when worn. To access, pull back
surface disk, loosen screw on bypass intake
and pull out bypass intake assembly.
Unscrew bypass cap.
Replace ball valve seat if torn, cracked or
heavily worn
To avoid magnet damage from debris build-
up, routinely wipe magnet cap pad clean
and replace when worn.
Flow Regulator
For the Polaris to operate at optimum efficiency, routinely check the inlet in the flow regulator
and clear away debris.
Emptying Pump Basket
Empty the pump basket regularly. The more debris in the pool, the more often the pump
basket should be cleared.
Backwashing the Pool Filter
Always disconnect the Polaris from the pool wall before cleaning or backwashing the pool
filter. After cleaning or backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five minutes to
flush out the suction lines before re-connecting the Polaris.
Storage and Winterizing
Never store the Polaris in direct sunlight. When storing for the winter, drain out all the water
(freeze damage is not covered by the warranty). Remove all connectors and adapters from
the dedicated suction line or skimmer. Store surface disk and steering skirt flat, and hose
sections disconnected, drained and straight.
