How To Control The Swim Current - Endless Pools STREAMLINE User Manual

4. How to Control the Swim Current

Two adjustment valves are provided at the front of the unit below
the waterline just to the right of the propulsion system housing
as you face the front (Fig 3). The primary speed control valve
(large knob on the left) is for coarse adjustment while the
secondary speed control valve (small knob on the right) is for
fine adjustment.

If you are new to the Streamline Pool, first verify that the second-
ary speed control valve is closed (turned fully clockwise). Next,
turn on the swim current using the keypad . By pressing the key 1
button once the pump will turn on at low speed . Press it again for
high speed . When you press this button a third time the pump will
turn off . Cycle the pump to high speed .
Turn the primary speed control valve back and forth and note how
the swim current changes . This coarse adjustment will be all that
most swimmers need. At the extreme right (fully clockwise) the
current will be at its fastest speed resulting in a shallower swim
current. At the extreme left (fully counter-clockwise) the current
will be slower but deeper and fuller .
It is not immediately obvious what speed might be right for you,
so begin by turning the primary speed control valve to the left and
begin swimming. Ideally you want to stay about 6" (15cm) from
the front grill staying centered and looking down . Allow yourself
to float back until your feet touch the back wall giving you a sense
of how much room you have .
If you feel the swim current isn't fast enough turn the primary
speed control valve to the right (faster) until you have found a
comfortable speed for you . It takes a minute or two to get used to
swimming in place . A snorkel and a mask can be used as tools to
better orient yourself in the swim current .
If you feel the swim current is too fast verify that the primary
speed control valve is turned fully to the left . Then, open the sec-
ondary speed control valve by turning it counter-clockwise . The
valve opens slowly with multiple turns and gradually slows down
the swim current. Most users will find the lower speeds, attainable
using these two adjustment valves, appropriate for them .
If the swim current is still too fast or you wish to have a slower
current for other water based exercises you will need to utilize
the two-speed nature of the pump . For this slower speed, turn the
pump off first. Before turning the pump on low speed it is best to
first close the secondary speed control valve by turning it mul-
tiple turns clockwise . Next, turn the pump to low speed . Adjust
the current with the primary speed control valve as before . There
should be no need to use the secondary speed control valve when
the pump is on low speed .
Over time, users familiar with the Streamline Pool may find it con-
venient to make fine speed adjustments with the secondary speed
control valve . This is a matter of personal preference . Initially,
however, we recommend adjusting the speed as described above .
In any case the Streamline Pool is designed to provide a perfect
place for relaxed swimming in warm water at your convenience .

Circulating Pump
The circulating pump has been provided with an integral dry run
protection thermostat feature, that turns the pump off when the
pump runs dry (thermostat off at 212ºF + 10ºF [100ºC - 5ºC]). If
left unattended, the thermostat will automatically reset within a
relatively short amount of time when the unit cools down, there-
by allowing the pump to again begin operation (at 176ºF + 13ºF
[80ºC - 9ºC]). Depending on the system conditions, many times
one or two of these off/on cycles will correct an air bound dry
run condition by itself with no harm done to the pump, thereby
allowing continued trouble free operation . However, if the off/on
cycling persists then measures should be taken to correct the prob-
lems in the circulation system causing the on/off cycling .
