WARNING - Read and follow all instructions in this owner’s manual and on the equipment. Failure

to follow instructions can cause injury.

WARNING –This document should be given to the owner of the swimming pool and must be kept

by the owner in a safe place.

WARNING – This appliance is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or

mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or

instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

WARNING – Do not let children use or play with the cleaner.

WARNING – Use only genuine Hayward replacement parts.

CAUTION – Regularly inspect the cleaner and hoses; do not use if damaged or if any rough edges

are visible on the cleaner as this can cause damage to the pool.

WARNING – Never operate the cleaner when there are people in the pool.

CAUTION – Vinyl liners are subject to deterioration or damage due to age, the effects of chemicals,

corrosion or failure of the supporting walls; as well as improper installation. Before installing your pool

vacuum, inspect the interior of your pool carefully. If your vinyl liner is brittle or has stones, roots,

wrinkles, metal corrosion in contact with the underside of the liner, or has damage to the base material or

supporting walls, do not install the pool vacuum before having a qualified pool professional perform the

necessary repairs or modifications. HAYWARD will not be responsible for liner damage caused by a

cleaner out of warranty or one that has been used in a pool having an aged or deteriorated liner. You are

responsible for liner damage if you use the pool vacuum under these conditions.

Congratulations on your purchase of your automatic suction pool cleaning system from

Hayward. Your Cleaner is the smart, efficient way to clean your pool. Hayward Disc Cleaners

are powered by your pool’s filter system and are designed to work well with most systems.

Therefore the performance of the Cleaner in your pool will be relative to that power source.

Because the operation and performance of the Cleaner are system reliant, there is a remote

possibility that a “service call” may be necessary to complete the proper installation of your

Cleaner.

Because this is an installation related call, it will be at the consumer’s expense. Also,

one or more of the accessories designed for the Cleaner, including additional hose sections (if

needed), might be applicable to your installation. Consult your Hayward dealer for the price

and availability. For Technical Assistance, call Hayward at:

_______________________________________________________________

2) Serial Number

_______________________________________________________________

Hayward Disc Cleaners should not be used to clean the pool for spring start-up. On those

occasions, where your pool is subjected to an abnormal debris load, maintenance steps

should be taken to return the pool to “pre-installations” condition.

Installation

1. Slide the Disc onto the cleaner body insuring the side marked “UP” is up. Start one side of the Disc inner edge in the

Foot groove and pull and flex the Disc until its inner edge is fully in the groove and the Disc rotates easily. Slide the

Wear Ring onto the Foot bottom flange, insuring the stepped side is down. Flex the top edge over the flange until it

is completely above it and the Ring rotates freely.

2. Turn off your pump.

3. If connecting through your skimmer, insert the Adapter into the Skimmer outlet and the first hose through the

Skimmer inlet and its male end into the Adapter.

4. If connecting through your dedicated suction outlet, lift the cover and insert the first hose male end directly into the

outlet.

5. Insure adequate length of hose is connected together to cover your pool.

6. Attach the Flow Regulator with its plastic lid on top to the end of the hoses. Turn your pump on making sure the Flow

Regulator remains below the water surface. Wait until your pump has removed all air from the hoses and is

operating normally. While the Flow Regulator is under water, observe its setting triangle opening. Adjust your

balance between bottom return and skimmer/dedicated outlet until the triangle’s second rib is just visible. Refer to

the indicator label on the Flow Regulator. Skip the next step. If your system cannot provide sufficient flow to the

cleaner, as indicated by the Regulator, it may not clean adequately. You should contact a local pool service

company or Hayward Technical Service for assistance. If you cannot reduce flow to the cleaner, as indicated by the

Regulator, go to Step 7.

7. If you cannot adjust flow down to the optimum point on the Flow Regulator, you will need to insert the Regulator in

line with the hoses (without lid). This can be at any point along the flow path from the cleaner to the

skimmer/dedicated outlet but may be initially placed between the third and fourth hoses. The Regulator must remain

below the water surface at all times in order for the cleaner to work properly.

8. If your cleaner does not move around your pool with the Disc in full contact with the bottom, approximately 45

degrees, it may require installation of the Hose Weight. Start by placing the Weight at the joint between the first and

second hoses from the cleaner. Observe its movement over your entire pool before changing. Adjust its location as

necessary to achieve good contact with the bottom.

9. When storing your hose, insure each section is kept straight. Residual curvature in the hose will reduce proper

function of the cleaner. Do not add chemicals to your pool while the cleaner is in the water.

10. To replace the Diaphragm, first remove the Wear Ring by flexing it off the Foot flange on which it is mounted.

Remove the Retainer by prying one removal tab toward the center with a flat screwdriver and out. You can also grasp

the tab with a pair of pliers and twist and pull the Retainer out of the Foot. Remove the Cassette Assembly. Slide the

O-Ring off the Cassette. Separate the halves of the Cassette and pull the Diaphragm off the internal tube. Reverse

the removal process to ready the cleaner for operation. Insure the Diaphragm is installed with its O-Ring on the upper

end.
