BALANCE SYSTEM Kreepy Krauly works most effectively when inclined at 45°
with the seal flat on the pool surface. To test the balance adjustment switch off the
pool pump, tow Kreepy Krauly into approx. 1.2m of water and allow it to settle to
bottom. The seal must be sitting
flat on the pool floor and the drive
tubes should be at 45° to the floor.
If Kreepy Krauly is lifting (i.e. at an
angle of more than 45°), move the
second hose weight towards the
swivel. Adjust until the seal sits flat
on the pool surface. Allow Kreepy
Krauly to settle back to the bottom
after each adjustment to get a fair
evaluation .Turn your pump on and
Kreepy Krauly will move around
your pool cleaning it automatically .
Note: If you have difficulty
balancing Kreepy Krauly, remove
the first hose weight or consult your
local Kreepy Krauly service centre
by phone for advice.
Adjusting the angle and balance
of Kreepy Krauly
If Kreepy Krauly is inclined at an angle greater
than 45°, move the second hose weight towards
the swivel head assembly.
FLOAT BAR A float bar allows you to adjust the turning action of Kreepy Krauly.
Two versions are available. Both clip and lock into the underside of the two bridges
between the dive floats. The one shown in
fits as shown or inverted in either bridge.
Four positions are possible. Adjusting the
angle and balance of Kreepy Krauly. The
Float Bar If Kreepy Krauly is inclined at an
angle greater than 45°, move the second
hose weight towards the swivel head
assembly. If Kreepy Krauly is inclined at
an angle less than 45° , move the second
hose weight towards the swivel head
assembly.
The Float Bar
EXTENDED FLOAT BAR The extended float bar shown in fits into either bridge. It
can also be rotated 180° when fitted to the lower bridge. Three positions are possible.
The effect of both float bars is to hold the
floats a set distance away from the top drive
tube. The Float bar will not be required on
many free form concrete pools. When you
require Kreepy Krauly to turn early down
the wall or away from the wall to avoid
obstacles, the simple rule is that the greater
the restricted distance between the floats and
the top drive tube the earlier Kreepy Krauly
will turn.
PILOT CONTROL In box section pools
and above ground pools this attachment
can be used to great advantage, usually in
conjunction with the extended float bar. For
excellent random floor sweeping with rapid
turning action away from the pool wall, the
pilot control should be fitted as shown and
the extended float bar fitted in the lower
bridge between floats. Please consult your
Kreepy Krauly Distributor/Installer before
using this combination.
PLEASE NOTE: The extended float bar and pilot control are optional items
for particular pools. They are not included as standard equipment.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
ATTENTION POOL BLANKET OWNERS
When a Pool Blanket is in use, carefully monitor your chlorine or salt
water chlorinator settings to avoid over chlorinating your pool which
may damage your Kreepy Krauly and void your Warranty.
The Pool Blanket prevents chlorine evaporating reducing the need
to add more chlorine. If you have a salt water chlorinator remember
to lower the amount of chlorine produced when the pool blanket is
in use. If you have any questions please call our Customer Service
department on 1800 777 255 or your local pool shop professional.
