Solution
1. Be sure filter pump and booster pump are on and working properly. (You may need
to clean your pool filter system).
2. Check the Wall Fitting screen for debris and rinse clean.
3. Check wheel RPM, (see page 14).
4. Determine if the Back-Up Valve is cycling. (Hold the valve out of the water and the
jet should come on for approx. 30 seconds and shut off for approx. 3 minutes and
30 seconds.)
5. Check all the Hose connections and Swivels for leaks that can cause loss of water
pressure.
6. Check debris that may be jammed in the gear teeth on one of the front drive wheels.
Gently rotate the front wheels backward to dislodge debris.
1. This usually indicates the bag needs to be emptied.
2. Check to see if the ballast float (EA20) is leaking by checking if there is water inside.
Unscrew by pulling back while turning counter-clockwise. When it comes off, shake
it and listen for water in the float.
1. Determine if the Back-Up Valve is cycling. (Hold the valve out of the water and the
jet should come on for approx. 30 seconds, and shut off for approx. 3 minutes and
30 seconds).
2. Check the wheel RPM, (see page 14).
3. Empty the debris bag if full or half full.
1. Even if your pool doesn't show algae you still need to brush the sides of the pool
wall.
2. Check the wheel RPM, (see page 14).
3. Reposition the Thrust Jet. Loosen the two screws to adjust the Thrust Jet,
(see page 13).
A Reminder: The climbing ability of the Legend
available water pressure. It will climb better in pools without sharp angles or curves
in the transition from the pool floor to the pool wall.
1. Check the length of the Feed Hose, they may be to long, (see pages 9-12).
2. Check to see that the Feed Hose is floating on top of surface. Check hose floats
for even spacing.
3. Twist the Hose Swivels to see if they spin freel and replace any that will not.
4. Lay out the Feed Hose straight in the full sun to remove any memory.
1. Adjust the Sweep Hose using the Adjustment Screw located on the bottom of the
Swivel Mast and just below the upper Thrust Jet. Turn Adjustment Screw clockwise
until the Sweep Hose is in a gentle sweeping motion.
1. Make sure Wall Fitting is mounted in pool wall correctly.
2. Make sure Pool Filtration system is working properly.
3. Contact your local Pool Professional - possible Booster Pump problem.
1. Adjust Sweep Hose to a gentle sweeping motion.
2. Add optional Sweep Hose weight, (see page 16).
