I. Introduction

A. Thank You for Choosing the Legend® II Pool Cleaner

Congratulations on the purchase of your new automatic pool cleaner. The Legend® II is designed to give you years of dependable and efficient service. With the Legend® II, you and your family will spend more time relaxing and enjoying your pool and less time cleaning it.

The Legend® II has been designed and built with time proven features and patented innovations to create an automatic pool cleaner that will give you years of dependable service. The Legend® II is built with pride by people who care about the product using state of the art materials and backed by a limited warranty that protects against defects in parts and construction.

Like any mechanical device, the Legend® II requires some preventative maintenance and the replacement of certain working parts. We recommend that you have your Legend® II checked annually. For best results have your Legend® II installed by a qualified swimming pool professional.

For pool owners with plumbing and mechanical experience, installation instructions are included in this manual.

Please put safety first! Be sure to take your Legend® II out of your pool and store it carefully in a shaded area before anyone enters the pool.

B. What to Expect from the Legend® II

When operating correctly, the Legend® II will travel randomly throughout the pool, vacuuming and sweeping the bottom. The climbing ability of the Legend® II is dependent on the pools shape. It will climb better in pools without sharp angles or curves in the transition from the pool floor to the pool wall.

The Legend® II comes equipped with a Wall Fitting (Part# LXW22) that features a Twist Lock Automatic Pressure Relief Valve. If the Legend® II is receiving too much water pressure to the unit, the relief valve will automatically reduce water pressure.

Approximately every three minutes and 30 seconds the Legend® II will go into a back up mode. At this time the Back Up Valve will pull the Legend® II away from problem areas.

Occasionally some vinyl pools have steps installed so the unit may not climb and remains stationary until the Back Up Valve pulls the unit away from the steps. When this occurs you need to use the optional Step Adapter (Part# EU13) to prevent wearing the vinyl liner.

The Sweep Hose operates in a gentle sweeping motion to prevent debris from becoming trapped in hard to reach corners of the pool.
