III.Operation/Periodic Maintenance - (cont.)
2. Tires & Bearings
The tires are designed to protect the bottom of your pool and provide better traction. You need to rotate or replace the tires when edges become rounded.
The Wheel Bearings are warranted free of defects when shipped from Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc., and are considered a wear item. A good bearing will spin freely.
5. Sweep Hose
The Sweep Hose is provided to help keep the bottom and sides of your pool clean. The Sweep Hose is warranted free of defects when shipped from the factory, and is considered a wear item.
6. Debris Valve
This valve is located under the Debris Bag, it is designed to keep the debris inside the bag. It functions like a check valve to allow the debris to only enter through the bag one way. Replacement is needed when valve begins to stiffen.
3. Roller Rings
Your Sweep Hose has a series of Roller Rings to protect the Sweep Hose. Replace the rings as needed. You can rotate the Roller Rings to prevent flat spots.
4. Debris Bags
Fine Mesh Sand & Silt Bag
The Legend® Platinum comes with a Sand & Silt bag for general use in all pools. We do not recommend using the fine mesh bag to pick up leaves and twigs or other large debris for they have sharp points and edges that can poke holes and eventually rip the bag.
Optional Leaf Bag
The leaf bag is a larger mesh bag made to pick up heavier debris such as leaves, twigs, acorns, etc. This bag can be helpful especially after a storm.
A Helpful Hint: To prolong the life of bags, remove cleaner from pool before adding chemicals.
E. Back Washing the Pool Filter
Always disconnect the Legend® Platinum from the pool wall before cleaning or back washing the pool filter. After cleaning or back washing, let the pool filtration system run for a minimum of five minutes to flush out the return lines before reconnecting the Legend® Platinum.
F. Storage and Winterizing
Never leave or store the Legend® Platinum in direct sunlight. When storing the Legend® Platinum for the winter, be sure to drain all the water from it. This is important since freeze damage is not covered under the warranty. Also, remove the Wall Fitting.
G. Accessories
1. Sweep Hose Weight
If the sweep hose tends to break the surface of the water therefore squirting nearby windows or innocent bystanders, a weight can be installed to the end of the sweep hose.
(Part # for Hose Weight is EH09C)
2. Leaf Bag (See Debris Bags #4)
