Checking Operation | Pentair Side Pool Cleaner instruction

F. Checking Operation

When operating correctly, the Legend® Platinum will travel in a random pattern throughout the pool, vacuuming and sweeping the bottom. The climbing ability of the Legend® Platinum is dependent on the pools structure and water flow coming into the pool. It will perform more efficiently in pools without sharp angles or curves in the transition from the floor of the pool to the wall.

The Legend® Platinum comes with a Twist Lock Pressure Relief Valve (Wall Fitting). If the Legend® Platinum is receiving too much water pressure, the Relief Valve in the Wall Fitting will release the excess water pressure.

Approximately every three minutes and 30 seconds the Legend® Platinum will go into a back-up mode. The Back-Up Valve cycle time, while in the back-up mode, is approximately 30 seconds, pulling the Legend® Platinum from problem areas.

New Back-Up Valve Information:

The Back-Up Valve Insert (#MBUVP) which is slid into the slot over the jet of the valve. This is secured with a stainless steel screw (#VX-9) as show in the diagram. The insert will be set from the factory with the smaller (1/4") hole over the opening of the jet. The smaller hole is used for the Platinum cleaner. If you change the insert to the larger (3/8") hole, the Back-Up Valve will have decreased jet pressure and possible not pull the unit backwards.

If the Legend® Platinum does not travel to all areas of the pool, turn off the booster pump and pool filtration pump and make the necessary adjustments from the instructions in the next section.

G. Fine Tuning the Legend® Platinum

1. Thrust Jet Adjustment

There are Thrust Jets located in the back of the Legend® Platinum. These Thrust Jets alter the direction of the cleaner. The factory standard position for the jets are: Left jet set slightly to the right and Right jet straight out.

2. Sweep Hose Adjustment

The Sweep Hose operates in a gentle sweeping motion to prevent debris from becoming trapped in hard to reach corners of the pools. To increase or decrease the motion of the Sweep Hose, there is an adjustment screw located on the Feed Mast Barb below the Ballast Float. Turning the screw clockwise will decrease the motion and counter clockwise to increase the motion of the Sweep Hose.
