lift the Pool Cleaner out of the water by using the Pool Cleaner handle. You can use the floating cable to pull
the robot closer to the side of the pool but, do not lift the robot by the cable out of the water.

2. Assembly
When you receive your Robo-Tek robot you will receive 2 boxes, 1 box will have the Robo-Tek robot inside and
the other box will have the caddy for the robot.
Unpack the box containing the robot and remove the contents. The contents of the robot box will be as follows.
a. Robo-Tek robot
b. Control box
c. Remote control
d. 1x20 micron filter bag (A 70-micron filter bag will be already installed inside the robot).
Unpack the box containing the caddy. The caddy box will have a caddy partly assembled and relevant nuts and
bolts to complete the assembly. There will also be screws, two of which you will use to secure the control box to
the rear of the caddy. There are a complete set of instructions on how to assemble the caddy within the caddy
box.
Attach the control box to the caddy with the screws supplied. The control box is placed on the outside, towards
the base of the caddy, there are two holes and two screws supplied to connect the control box to the caddy.
Unwind the blue floating cable and lay it out on the pool deck, in an “S” shape. During packing, the floating
cable is wound tight, therefore you will have to manually unwind the cable before the first operating cycle
commences. Removing the cable from the control box at the end of each cycle, is key to maintaining a tangle
free cable.
Unscrew the socket safety cap and insert the floating cable plug into the socket of the Control Box.

Connect the Control Box to an outside AC power of 100v/240v 50/60Hz with a earth leakage detection device.
Note: The control box is water resistant, but not water proof, due to the cooling vents on the back. It is your
responsibility to protect the control box from water damage, as water damage to the control box is not
covered under the manufacturers warranty.
Please ensure the Control Box is placed in a dry, shaded area, when not in use.
3. Using the Robo for the first time
Place the robot in the shallow end of your pool, squeeze the 4 sponge wheels until no more air bubbles come out of
them. Turn the robot upside down (in the water) to release any trapped air. The robot should now submerge.
Ensure the cable is laid in an “S” shape on the decking/paving, and allow the robot to pull the cable into the water
as required. (Do not throw all the floating cable into the pool)
Proceed to the control box, ensure you have turned on the power at the source (Red Light will illuminate on the
control box, once the control box has power).
Press the Red button to turn the control box on.
The Red power light will turn BLUE (indicating the robot is in the “Floor only” mode)
NOTE: This light will change to Green, when the Climb function is activated
If the Robot is not submerged, you will need to push the robot underwater, as soon as waterspouts from the top of
it.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
•If the robot resurfaces, this means the sponge wheels are not fully saturated. (Squeeze the wheels until the
air bubble stop coming out of them). Then recommence the start up procedures. (The green light will flash,
indicating the robot is out of water)
•The sponge wheels play an integral role in the balance, and cleaning effectiveness of the robot. They may
take up to 1 hour to fully saturated. Please keep the robot on the FLOOR ONLY MODE (Climb/Power light
showing Blue) for the initial 1 hour cycle.

•The Robo-Tek will extract dirt from your pool that you cannot even see from standing alongside your pool.
Therefore, on the initial clean, the filter bag may fill very quickly. It is best to stop the pool cleaner after 10
mins to see how dirty the filter bag is. If the filter bag is no longer white, or has a large number of leaves
inside, then please clean it, and start another 10 minute cycle. If the filter bag still looks good after 10
minutes, allow the robot to complete the 1-hour cleaning time.
•NOTE: Once the initial clean has been performed, it will not be necessary to clean the filter bag mid cycle
•When the cleaning cycle is completed, Unplug the 100V/240v socket. Pull the robot out of the pool by the
handle on the Pool Cleaner. NOTE: Do not lift the Pool Cleaner out of the water by using the floating cable.
4. Removing the Base Plate and cleaning the Filter Bag:
Unlock the Latches on the Base Plate to remove the Filter Bag from Base Plate. When cleaning the bag remove the
major particles and place them in the bin, they will usually be in the corners of the bag. To make the filter bag easier
to clean, you can turn it inside out, and place it back over the base plate wire frame. Then squirt water at it, using a
trigger hose.
Once clean, allow the filter bag to dry, before re-installing it into the base of the robot, ready for the next clean.
(Note: when re-fitting the Filter Bag to the Base Plate, please ensure the “SHORT SIDE” tag is at one of the short
ends of the base plate).
NOTE: For optimal cleaning, we recommend placing the filter bag in your washing machine once a month.
At the end of the cleaning cycle, place the robot on the caddy, disconnect the floating cable from the control box,
wind the floating cable in a circle by hand and place it on the caddy hanging bracket.
Then wheel the caddy to a dry, well-ventilated shaded area.
