2
Brush the pool walls to move any dirt and debris toward to the main drain.
3
Empty the skimmer baskets.
4
Empty the cleaner catch bag.
5
Vacuum the pool.
  • Turn on the equipment.
  • Connect the vacuum head and hose to the tele-pole.
  • Once the hose is activated, vacuum the floor of the pool slowly.
6
Empty the pump basket (turn off the equipment).
7
Check the filter gauge.
  • Clean the filter if the gauge is 10 pounds above normal.
  • To clean the filter correctly, please refer to the product manufacturer’s detailed guidelines.
8
Check the chemicals.
  • Using a test-kit, check the chlorine, ph, alkalinity, calcium levels and salt content (if you have a salt generator).
