Standard Installation
The S5™ 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.
Insert the cone adapter into the vacuum connection in
the bottom of the skimmer. See Figure 7.
5.
Press the regulator valve into the conical 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.
8.
Insert the end of the hose through the skimmer
opening and connect the hose directly onto the
regulator valve. See Figure 7
