D. Pressure Testing Instructions

1.Make sure the pool filter is clean before conducting this pressure test.

2.Twist lock the Wall Fitting with Feeder Hose into the Wall Adapter.

3.Have someone hold the Pressure Tester end of the Feed Hose beneath the water while you turn on the pool pump. Continue holding the hose under the water and cover the large hole of the pressure tester.

4.Reach down and feel around the Pressure Relief Valve on the Wall Fitting to see if the Relief Valve is releasing any water pressure. If valve is releasing water pressure go on to Section E. If it is not, the pool filtration pump may not have sufficient amount of water pressure to operate the Legend® Platinum II.

E. Cutting the Feed Hose

(See Hose Diagram on Page 11)

The Hose assembly comes in 6 sections covering approximately 30 ft. of the pool, which provides ample hose for most residential pools. For larger or smaller pools see Page 12 for instructions for Adding or Deleting Additional Feeder Hose.

1.Take Feeder Hose out of box and lay the hose straight in the sun for one day if possible, (this will take any memory out of the hose due to being coiled up in the box).

2.With the pool pump on, hold the free end of the Feeder Hose underwater. Gently pull the hose to the farthest end of the corner of the pool, do not stretch the hose. (The Legend® Platinum II usually will not climb the top step, so you do not need to include it in the measurement.) If the hose just reaches the farthest point of your pool, and without any excess hose hanging over the deck, then go to Section F.

3.If the Feeder Hose extends past the farthest end of the pool, mark the excess hose hanging over the deck, turn off your pool pump, and cut first 6 ft. section of hose, closest to the wall, the length of excess.

4.IMPORTANT: Please double check the hose length to insure you will be getting the maximum performance from your pool cleaner. The hose lengthens when under pressure (when your pump is on).
