PROUDLY DESIGNED
AND MADE IN AUSTRALIA
BALANCE SYSTEM
Kreepy Krauly works most effectively when inclined at 45° with the seal flat
on the pool surface. To test the balance adjustment switch off the pool pump,
tow Kreepy Krauly into approx. 1.2m of water and allow it to settle to bottom.
The seal must be sitting flat on the pool floor and the drive tubes should be
at 45° to the floor. If Kreepy Krauly is lifting (i.e. at an angle of more than
45°), move the second hose weight towards the swivel. Adjust until the seal
sits flat on the pool surface. Allow Kreepy Krauly to settle back to the bottom
after each adjustment to get a fair evaluation. Turn your pump on and
Kreepy Krauly will move around your pool cleaning it automatically.
Note: If you have difficulty balancing Kreepy Krauly, remove the first hose
weight or consult your local Kreepy Krauly service centre by phone for advice.
If Kreepy Krauly is inclined at an angle greater than
45°, move the second hose weight towards the
swivel head assembly.

ATTENTION POOL BLANKET OWNERS
When a Pool Blanket is in use, carefully monitor your chlorine or salt
water chlorinator settings to avoid over chlorinating your pool which
may damage your Kreepy Krauly and void your Warranty.
The Pool Blanket prevents chlorine evaporating reducing the need
to add more chlorine. If you have a salt water chlorinator remember
to lower the amount of chlorine produced when the pool blanket is
in use. If you have any questions please call our Customer Service
department on 13 80 90 or your local pool Clark Rubber Store.
