USE OF THE POLARIS CLEANER IN A VINYL LINER POOL

Certain vinyl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to rapid surface wear or pattern removal caused by objects coming

into contact with the vinyl surface, including pool brushes, pool toys, floats, fountains, chlorine dispensers, and automatic

pool cleaners. Some vinyl liner patterns can be seriously scratched or abraded simply by rubbing the surface with a pool

brush. Ink from the pattern can also rub off during the installation process or when it comes into contact with objects in the

pool. Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. is not responsible for, and the Limited Warranty does not cover, pattern removal, abrasion

or markings on vinyl liners.

To avoid risk of potentially serious injury:

• Do not handle the Polaris cleaner while it is operating, except when checking the wheel RPM.

• Always remove the Polaris cleaner before swimmers enter the pool.

For customer service or support:

• Please mail warranty card immediately.

• For on-line support: www.polarispool.com

• To contact Polaris: US and Canada

CAUTION

Before You Start: Important Information

• Before installing the Polaris®cleaner, make sure the pool filter is clean.

• New plumbing lines should be flushed out before installing the Polaris cleaner.

• The Polaris cleaner should not be used to remove plaster dust in new pools.

• Always disconnect the cleaner before cleaning or backwashing the pool filter.

• After cleaning or backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five (5) minutes before

reconnecting the cleaner.

• Always remove the cleaner from the pool before chemical shock treatements, such as super oxidation or

chlorination.

• Solar heating systems, ozone generators, and other air inducing equipment may cause air flow through the

cleaner, adversely affecting cleaner balance and performance. Plumb the dedicated cleaner line upstream

of these components.

• Highly chlorinated water can cause maintenance problems. Avoid running the Polaris cleaner while

chlorinating.

Installing the Cleaner

Read the complete owner’s

manual before you begin installation.

1 Prepare the Pool

1. Turn on the filtration pump for 2-3 minutes to flush out the plumbing lines.

2. Turn off the filtration pump.

3. Lay hose (f) out on the pool deck in sunlight to relax coils. This will reduce

the risk of tangling during cleaning.

2 Install the Universal Wall Fitting

Purpose of installing the UWF®:Once the UWF is properly installed, the Quick

Disconnect can be removed each time without removing the UWF.

1. Remove the Universal Wall Fitting (UWF) (j) from the end of the hose (f) and

thread (by hand) into the dedicated return line opening in the pool.

2. Make sure the filter screen (k) is firmly seated in the Quick Disconnect (i).

3. Install Quick Disconnect into the UWF by turning clockwise (do not over-tighten),

then pull to secure in place.

English

If your pool has two or three return lines, use the

Eyeball Fitting Connection Kit (part #9-100-8001).

This kit provides a Universal Wall Fitting (UWF®)

and pressure relief valve to be installed into the 2nd

return line. Also included is an eyeball regulator,

which will replace the existing eyeball if a 3rd return

line is present.

Use the UWF Eyeball Fitting Kit (part #6-511-

00) to restore proper water circulation when the

cleaner is removed from the pool.

If the pool does not have a dedicated return line, the Polaris 360 cleaner connects to most common

return lines using special adapter kits available for purchase at a participating Polaris dealer.

For pools with plastic-pipe return lines (without pipe threads) that are cut off flush with the pool wall:

3 Test Water Pressure

4 Adjust Hose Length

1. Turn on the filtration pump.

2. With the hose connected to the UWF®, hold

the pressure tester (o) under water. Cover the

large hole with your thumb and confirm water is

releasing from the pressure

relief valve (i).

NOTE: There are two holes in the end of the pressure

tester. It is important to block the larger hole to verify

pressure.

1. Turn the pump on. Hold hose

under water until the pressure

relief valve releases pressure.

2. Extend the hose to the

farthest point of the pool.

The hose end must be within

6 inches (15 cm), longer or

shorter.

3. Measure the hose with the

pressure on and cut excess

length from the first hose

section (p). (This is the

section connected to the

Quick Disconnect (i).)

4. Reconnect hose sections.

5. After adjusting the hose

length, position the three

hose floats as shown.

No water flow from pressure relief valve?

• If your Polaris®cleaner is connected to a dedicated cleaner line, adjust the diverter valve to

increase the water flow to the cleaner.

• Make sure filter screen (k) is correctly positioned in Quick Disconnect.

• Check skimmer, pump basket, and main filter for debris restricting flow.

• If the Polaris cleaner is connected to one of multiple return lines, verify you have the correct

Polaris return line connection kits installed (see page 5 of this manual).

Hose too short?

• Contact your local Polaris dealer. Buy a new hose section. Add to

the first hose section (p) and cut until within 6 inches (15 cm).

5 Assemble the Cleaner

1. Remove the pressure tester (o) by unscrewing the hose nut (q).

NOTE: The hose nut has reversed threads.

2. Use the same hose nut (q) and secure the hose to the cleaner body at the

feed pipe.

3. Pull the bag up and attach to the hose using the bag clip (n) .

4. Push the head float (c) all the way forward, up against the

cleaner body.

English

Before operating the Polaris®cleaner, check for proper wheel revolutions per minute

(RPM). For maximum efficiency, the Polaris should operate between 28 and 32

RPM.

1. Mark the single side wheel using using a piece of tape (or a small leaf tucked

into the tire).

2. Turn the pump on, hold the cleaner below the water level and count wheel

revolutions for one minute.

3. Optimum wheel speed should be between 28 and 32 RPM.

Operating the Cleaner

1. Connect hose in the pool at the UWF®.

2. Submerge the cleaner in the pool, allowing it to sink to the bottom.

3. Turn on the filtration pump and allow it to prime. Cleaner will begin to move.

1 Start the Cleaner

2 Check for Proper Wheel RPM

WARNING

To avoid risk of potentially serious injury, do not swim or use the pool

when the cleaner is submerged or operating.

3 Adjust the Wheel Speed

• Check the filter screen in the Quick Disconnect for debris.

• Clean the skimmer, filter and pump basket.

• Check the hoses, connections, and swivel for leaks.

• If the cleaner is connected to a dedicated return line, adjust the diverter

valve to increase water flow.

Wheel Speed less than 28 RPM?

Wheel Speed more than 32 RPM?

• If the cleaner is connected to a dedicated cleaner line, adjust the diverter

valve to reduce the water flow to the cleaner.

• Unscrew the pressure relief valve until proper RPM is reached.

NOTE: For easier removal, use the Polaris®UWF®removal tool (Contact

your local Polaris dealer, Part # 10-102-00).

English

When operating correctly, the Polaris®cleaner vacuums, sweeps and scrubs all surfaces

randomly throughout the pool. The climbing ability depends on the pool’s shape and water

pressure or flow. The Polaris cleaner climbs best in pools without sharp angles or curves

in the transition from the pool floor to the pool wall. Approximately every 3-1/2 minutes the

Polaris cleaner goes into back-up mode. This action pulls the Polaris cleaner away from pool

obstacles.

The sweep hose should move in a gentle sweeping motion. To increase or

decrease sweeping motion:

1. Turn the filtration pump OFF.

2. Turn the adjustment screw on the feed pipe (r) counterclockwise to

increase sweep hose motion. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to

decrease motion.

Decrease

motion

If the cleaner is veering left or right instead of tracking straight, adjust the

thrust jet (on the back of the cleaner body) for climbing walls or turning.

Fine Tuning the Cleaner

1 Adjust the Sweep Hose

2 Adjust the Thrust Jet

Fine tune your cleaner by adjusting the sweep hose or the

thrust jet as necessary, for optimal operation.

NOTE: Factory default setting is

eleven o’clock. Only adjust thrust

jet to accomodate unique pool

shapes.
