➔Some Polaris owners have told us it is easier to empty the filter bag when it is dry. They alternate between two filter bags. When one becomes full, they remove it and put on the clean bag. They let the full bag dry com- pletely before emptying it.

F. Periodic Maintenance

The following parts are wear items that should be periodically checked and replaced as needed.

Please Note: Wear items are not covered under warranty.

1. Filter Screen (#42)

Inside the quick disconnect there is a filter screen. It acts as a safety filter to keep any debris that is not caught by the pool filtration system out of the Polaris. If the filter screen

clogs often, consult your pool professional.

Please Note: Running the Polaris without the filter screen can damage the Polaris.

To clean the filter screen, pull it out of the quick dis- connect, rinse it and press it firmly back into place. See the diagram at the top of the next column.

2. Wear Rings (#36)

The sweep hose is fitted with rolling wear rings that protect the sweep hose. Replace them before the weights on either side of the wear rings begin to wear.

➔To maximize the life of the wear rings, we recommend that you rotate them as they wear.

3. Tires (#6)

The tires provide traction and protect both the Polaris and the bottom of your pool. Replace the tires when the edges become rounded.

4. Sweep Hose Scrubber (#30)

The sweep hose scrubber helps keep the bottom and sides of your pool clean. It also helps prevent the sweep hose from spraying water out of the pool. Replace the scrubber when it becomes worn. The scrubber may need to be replaced often depending on the surface of your pool.

➔To maximize the life of the sweep hose scrubber, we recommend that you turn it as it wears.

G. Backwashing the Pool Filter

Always disconnect the Polaris from the pool wall before cleaning or backwashing the pool filter. After cleaning or backwashing, let the pool filtration system run for at least five min- utes to flush out the return lines before reconnecting the Polaris.
