QUICK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Four quick steps to install and get maximum performance from the Polaris 280:
•
Install the Universal Wall Fitting (UWF) with Quick Disconnect
•
Adjust feed hose to fit pool length
•
Assemble the cleaner
•
Check for proper wheel RPM (revolutions per minute)
1. Install the Universal Wall Fitting
Installs in minutes on pools with a dedicated cleaner return line and a threaded 1-1/2"
female pipe fitting.
1. Turn on the filtration pump and flush out the plumbing line.Turn pump off.
2. Remove the UWF from the Quick Disconnect and screw the UWF with the blue restrictor
disk into the return opening.
3. Turn the Quick Disconnect clockwise into the UWF and pull away to secure.
2. Adjust Feed Hose To Fit Pool Length
Measure the deepest part of the pool. Cut leader hose, from end that attaches to feed hose,
so length is equal to the greatest depth of the pool.
Attach leader hose to feed hose and connect hose to the pool wall at the return line. Extend
hose to farthest point of pool. The hose end must be within 6" – longer or shorter – of the
farthest point. See dotted circle.
Hose too long? Separate hose at center swivel. Cut equal amounts of the overage from each
10-foot feed hose section.
Hose too short? Buy an additional feed hose section (part #9-100-3104), one swivel (part
#D20) and two hose nuts (part #D15) from an authorized Polaris dealer.
After adjusting hose, position hose floats as shown.
