until it clicks in place. Allow the cleaner to drift to the bottom of the pool.
Turn the pool pump on again, and your Zodiac cleaner is ready for cleaning, leaving you with a sparkling pool.

a. It is most important to disconnect the head of
the cleaner from the leader hose section when
you remove your Baracuda B3 cleaner out of
the pool.
b. From time to time, ensure the diaphragm is free of debris
and / or dirt and rinse it with water. Simply disconnect the
top of the cleaner to access the Duralife™diaphragm.
