Operation

This section contains information describing the movement and operation of your Great White Cleaner, as well as tips for “fine-tuning” your pool’s valves and connections to optimize Great White’s cleaning ability.

Cleaner Operation and Movement

Clicking sound

This is the sound of the oscillator moving back and forth in the oscillator chamber. The best speed for it is about 500 oscillations per minute. The vibration created by the oscillator moves the bristles and the cleaner. If the oscillator is running too fast, the cleaner will have a tendency to climb up the pool wall past the waterline, or “walk out of the pool” and suck air. Reduce the speed by adjusting the vacuum regulator in the skimmer.

Movement around the pool

Random motion – The cleaner will visit most spots in the pool within a six (6) hour period. It is not specifically programmed, and cannot see the dirt you are seeing. It is a random motion pattern.

The cleaner was designed to spend most of its time in the deep end, where most of the floor and wall area exists. During a six (6) hour period, the cleaner will visit the shallow end a few times.

Rotating motion – The cleaner will rise up on one side and pivot a few times per minute. This is normal and provides the following:

1.Allows leaves that are being pushed or dragged along to be sucked up into the vacuum chamber.

2.Allows the cleaner to:

Change direction

Get out of corners

Get away from ladders

Submerge below pool water level

Get off of domed main drain covers

Picks up “big stuff”

The cleaner will pick up some debris so large that it may jam. Simply stop the pump and remove the debris from the oscillator, or the swivel assembly.
