Fine Tuning The Polaris Cleaner
When operating correctly, the Polaris 480 vacuums, sweeps and scrubs all surfaces
randomly throughout the pool. Approximately every 3 minutes the Polaris 480 goes into
back-up mode. This action pulls the Polaris away from pool obstacles and increases its
random pattern.
Thrust Jet Adjustment
The thrust jet powers the direction
of the Polaris. Factory position is
straight back, but depending on
the pool, other settings are helpful.
Sweep Hose Adjustment
The sweep hose should move in a
gentle sweeping motion. To increase
or decrease the motion of the sweep
hose, turn off the booster pump and
change the sweep hose settings.
There are five easy-click settings
located at the back of the cleaner.
Routine Maintenance
Cleaning the All-Purpose Filter Bag
Detach the Velcro strips. Depress the bag clasp to free the bag from the feed hose. Depress
the prongs to release the bag from the cleaner. Open the bag closure and remove the debris.
Empty the bag
when it is half full,
especially if the dirt
load is sand.
It is easier to empty
the bag when it is dry.
Alternate between
two bags.
