Troubleshooting
VTX-3 pulsates rapidly
but doesn't move, or travels
very slowly:
• Check that the sole is fitted correctly.
• If the sole tread is worn away,
replace it with a new sole.
• Check that the Vacuum Plate and
Auto Skim or Smart-Skim valve is
fitted correctly (see page 7).
• Check the markings on the seal to
make sure it hasn't been installed
upside down.
• Check the Smart-Skim or Auto
Skim valve isn't jammed. If it is,
remove the valve from the vacuum
plate, submerge the valve in
water – opening and closing until
it moves freely.
• Check Smart-Skim spring is
correctly attached.
• Check for a blockage in the main
body of your VTX-3 (see page 19).

VTX-3 travels too slowly,
or doesn't pulsate:
• If the filter is blocked, backwash
or clean it thoroughly.
• If the flow valve at the bottom of
your VTX-3 is blocked, clean out
the valve (see page 19).
• If the pump or skimmer box
strainer basket is full or blocked,
clean them out.
• If the main drain valve is open,
shut it off, or fit an optional
expanding plug.
• Check for damage to the main body.
