Installation; Before You Start; Ad Flow Valve - Zodiac Activ AX 10 Owner's Manual

Installation

1. Before You Start

For best Zodiac pool cleaner performance, you will need to follow the following steps of the installation.
®
1. Following manufacturer's instructions, clean the filter and empty the skimmer and the pump strainer
basket.
2. If your main drain is connected to the skimmer box, block off access.
3. Manually vacuum the pool.
4. Ensure circulation system is operating at maximum water flow, or you will need to re-adjust when it
comes to clean the filter baskets.
5. Adjust water flow, from all return inlets: -
a) downward and toward each other OR
b) downward and toward the centre of the pool.
If return inlet directional fittings can't be directed far enough
down to prevent water flow affecting the natural movement
of the Zodiac hose, you will need to install Zodiac return line
diverters. These are available from your local Zodiac dealer.

2. AD Flow Valve

The AD Flow valve works by regulating the flow through the pool cleaner to the pump.
As the filter collects debris, the valve will automatically maintain the correct flow.
The installation of the AD Flow valve will depend upon the type of skimmer box and
Vac plate you have. It is either installed straight in from the top of the Vac plate or
from the bottom of the Vac plate.
See the 4 different cases below.
1st case: with WaterCo
Screw in the AD Flow valve connector into the top of the Vac plate.
Screw in all the way then back off one full turn.
2nd case: with Poolrite

3rd case: with Speed Regulator/Skimtrol
Simply connect the 90 Degree Elbow into the top of
the Vac Plate (use a weir cuff, if necessary).
