Standard Installation

The Rebel™ Suction Side Pool Cleaner is designed
to work in a wide variety of swimming pools. Both the
standard in-skimmer installation and optional vacuum
line installation are covered in this section. Check to
see which most closely fits your pool configuration and
follow the directions.
Note: Depending on the particular features of your
pool, the valve cap for the regulator valve may not be
needed.
1. Turn the pool pump off.
2. Close the main drain and all suction lines, except
the line from the skimmer to which the cleaner will
be connected.
3. Remove skimmer basket.
4. Thread the compression adapter into the vacuum
connection in the bottom of the skimmer. See
Figure 7.
Note: Use two wraps of thread seal tape around
threads to ensure easy removal.
5. Press the regulator valve into the compression
adapter. The valve's adjustment knob should be
pointing up.
6. Place cleaner into the pool. Turn it side to side
and front to back to release any trapped air,
allowing the cleaner to sink to the floor of the pool.
Continue to feed the hose vertically down into
the pool until it is completely filled with water and
purged of air.
Note: If air is pulled into the pool plumbing it may
cause your pump to lose prime.
7. Slide the hose protector into position on the hose
to prevent the hose body from rubbing against the
skimmer wall.
8. Insert the end of the hose through the skimmer
opening and connect the hose directly onto the
regulator valve. See Figure 7.
