After unpacking the hose, Stretch it (this is very
important). The SkimmerMotion®hose should
be as straight as possible.
Disconnect the main hose from your pool
cleaner (Baracuda®, Kreepy Krauly®, Hay-
ward® etc.)
REMEMBER: Your pool cleaner’s hose must be 1¼" diame-
ter for it to work properly with your new SkimmerMo-
tion®
Reconnect your original pool hose (lead)
into the Tee placed on Step 4.
Lastly, insert the basket provided inside
your SkimmerMotion®. Set the suction
power setting PIN to #2

Place in Water Adjust Suction
Adjust Whirlpool
Your SkimmerMotion™ uses a fraction of the suction of
your entire pool system. Increase with the SkimmerMo-
tion attached to the APC and the basket (SM Power
Setting) set to #3, increase the suction of your pool
cleaner for proper operation. Move the pool valves of
your pool pump and adjust your APC using the FLOW
meter that usually comes with it (Follow the APC
manual).
Put both your Pool Cleaner and SkimmerMotion®
inside your swimming pool.
IMPORTANT: Make sure there are no air bubbles inside your
SkimmerMotion® hose and that both your Pool Cleaner and
SkimmerMotion® hoses are not tangled together.
After the automatic pool cleaner is working normally,
set SkimmerMotion basket to #2. SkimmerMotion
should work ne. SM should have the whirlpool effect
to absorb debris at #2 with no air trapped (noise).
Setting to #1 is the maximum whirlpool power, but air
could be trapped (NOISY SM) and impact the perfor-
mance of your system. If your system is making noise,
repeat step 11.
Only after your SkimmerMotion® is in the
water connected properly to your Pool
Cleaner, you may turn on the pump system
(and also the lter, if you turned it off in
step 2).
NOTE: Make sure all your hoses are untan-
gled and fully straightened out (see pool
illustration).
WARNING - Hazardous suction. Do not play with
cleaner or hose or apply to body. Can trap and tear
hair or body parts.
WARNING - To avoid the risk of injury, do not let
children use or play with pool cleaner.
WARNING - Do not allow swimmers in the pool
while pool cleaner is operating. Hose can trip or
entangle swimmers which could result in drown-
ing.
If you have bigger leaves that manage to pass through the central crown, use the
included cown O-ring that will stopthe bigger leaves to get into the hose and
block the system.
