Installing a Polaris 180 Pool Cleaner Bag

Video Transcript

"ALLYN CHRISTOPHER: Next thing we're going to make sure we have is this. This is the adjustment to the water flow in here. Now this is something that you do save from the original cleaner, and all it does is get to push right in here, just make sure you're never cross threading it. You need to use a plier since you want to bit the outside of it, and it does have a hex or a Allen key wrench, [INDISCERNIBLE] in there. Now once you put this in, you have to put it--yeah, leave a quarter of an inch or so out. This is again another thing which you're going to just want to get into the pool. And the more you push it in, the more it restricts the water to the sweep tail, the slower it runs, reverse the process, pull it out, open up the flow, faster it sweeps. And this is going to be something you're going to just adjust correctly for your pool. Again, same thing we're going to do with the float head. Now, and it's almost 100% right to go on the pool, last thing we need is, it needs brand new bag. The one that comes with the kit is their sand and silk bag. Now if you look through it here, you can barely see a lot. It's nice and fine. And when you're dealing with pressures and things like that, this is for everyday dirt and debris and obviously you can see that with the size of it, it's going to take a lot of leaves also but actually, check with your local pool retailer because Polaris makes a handful of different bags to suit your needs. If you've got incredibly horrible leaf problem, they have ones that just basically open weaves. Dirt will vent right through it but it will have a lot more sucking power for big heavy mats of leaves, all right? When you go to dump it, and it's a great thing, all you do is separate the Velcro or loop or eye and loop tape if it's not Velcro brand. And it removes the debris. When you're done, make sure the eye and loop is good, you're locking it back up and installing it on this guy is pretty easy. It's a little different from the other Polarises. You just put it around and put around the throat and I'm going to put the strap, ooh! Uh-huh, uh-huh, and get in there, okay? And you pull it taut, move it around, lock it up, and in this end here we'll attach the hose, that ones, we're going to put that one back on there and now you have a factory rebuilt kit, I rebuilt it, ready to go and spend another decade or so keeping your pool spotless."
