3. Backwash the pool filter
Always disconnect the cleaner from the pool wall before cleaning or backwashing the pool filter. After cleaning
or backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five (5) minutes to flush out the suction lines before
re-connecting the cleaner.
4. Adding chemicals
Remove the cleaner from the pool for at least four (4) hours when adding chemicals.
5. Replace brushes regularly (MX6
To maintain optimal cleaning, it is recommended to replace MX8 Elite scrubbing brushes each season or when
significant wear is visible (Figure 13). To remove brushes, squeeze the yellow plastic clip between two fingers
and pull out. Type of pool surface may also increase rate of wear to brushes.
Figure 13
6. Storage
Never store the cleaner in direct sunlight. Do not coil the hose, even for short time.
Hose may develop a memory which can affect cleaner performance. Store the cleaner on its side or back to
avoid damage to turbine (all models) and brushes (MX8 Elite), see Figure 14.

7. Winterizing
Before storing for winter, drain out all the water (freeze damage is not covered by the warranty). Remove all
connectors and adapters from the dedicated suction line or skimmer. Disassemble the hoses and lay flat.
