Hayward Ntech Evac-sharkvac User manual

Hayward robotic cleaners represent the highest standard in design, performance, and quality. The
cleaner independently scrubs, vacuums, and lters your pool. It is completely automatic and requires
no installation, no attachments. Just drop it in and turn it on. Filter cleaning is much easier with the
top-access lter cartridge element. Adaptive Seek Control Logic (ASCL®) Microprocessor control
optimizes cleaning routine for each individual pool size and shape. Electronic Self-Diagnostics,
Overload Protection, and simple Direct Drive design with non-corrosive bearings provide high reliability.

Dear Hayward Robotic Cleaner Owner:
Thank you for choosing Hayward. In order to achieve optimal performance, please read and follow
these steps:
1. Allow the cleaner the rst 10 minutes of each use to calculate pool size and conguration. The
normal programmed cycle is not designed to begin until after this period.
2. Cleaner lter cartridges should be thoroughly cleaned after each use or as often as needed to ensure
cleaner’s optimal performance.
3. Before using your cleaner and especially when opening the pool for the rst time remove larger
items from the pool that may diminish the cleaner’s performance. Clean lter frequently when pool is
excessively dirty.
4. For the rst use, run cleaner for the full cycle (2 hours) to ensure a clean pool and give yourself a full
understanding of the cleaner’s capabilities. Subsequent cleanings may take less than a full cycle.
5. Cleaner may periodically go to the wall but not necessarily climb to the vertical position. This is a
normal part of the programmed cycle.
6. Cleaner may stop in the middle of the pool and reverse during cleaning cycle. This is a normal part
of the programmed cycle.
7.  start cleaner out of the water. Power button should only be switched to  position when
unit is submerged. The unit will automatically shut off, but it is best to put power switch in 
position when unit completes cleaning.
8. Plug in only to a protected 230 V
 outlet that is close and protected from short-circuits. Fit a 30 mA
differential protection device to protect people from electric shock caused by a possible break in the
electrical insulation.
9. Place the cleaner power supply so that it is at a minimum distance of 3.5 meters from the pool edge.
The length of the standard cleaner cable is 15.24 meters.

TIPS BEFORE USING YOUR UNIT!

Take a moment to get familiar with the cleaner using the gure 3. Throughout this manual reference to
this gure is made when referring to different components of the cleaner.
Remove the cleaner by placing the carton down and removing
it from the box as shown. The cleaner and the Power Supply is
premounted to the cart. See the gure 4 for Caddy Cart.
1. Select the nearest 230 V
 outlet that is close and protected from short-circuits. Fit a 30 mA differential
protection device to protect people from electric shock caused by a possible break in the electrical
insulation.
2. Place the power supply so that it is at a minimum distance of  meters from the pool edge. The
length of the standard cable is  meters.
3. Connect the oating cable to the power supply. Use only the original Power Supply manufactured by
.
4. Place the cleaner in the pool. It will slowly sink to the bottom of the pool as the air inside is released.
5. Connect the power supply to the protected outlet and switch it on. The cleaner will perform a self-
diagnostics routine for several minutes before starting the cleaning cycle.
⚠ Caution:  switch power supply  when the cleaner is out of water. This may result in
damage to the pump and drive motor seals, which will  the warranty.
6. The cleaner will automatically shut off after a cleaning cycle of 2 hours. If your pool is cleaned in less
time than 2 hours, you may shut the cleaner off manually by switching the power supply to the off
position.
