Frill-NeckWIZARD

away from steps, ladders and corners.

Caring for your Frill-NeckWIZARD

DO NOT EVER:

1. Remove the Frill-NeckWIZARD

from the pool while the pump

is running as this will introduce air to the pump and cause it to

lose Prime.

2. Put any oil, grease or other lubricants on the engine unit. Water is the

only lubricant required.

3. Leave the pool cleaner in the pool when

“shocking” it with aggressive chemical

treatments. This could lead to chemical

damage.

4. Store cleaner hose in a coiled position. It is

manufactured using special materials which

enables hose memory and may cause the

hose to lie awkwardly on the water preventing

the Frill-NeckWIZARD

from moving freely

around the pool.

Maintenance & Service Tips

Operating Time: It is good practice to operate your Frill-NeckWIZARD

for

the amount of time required to clean your pool only, to maximise the life of

the product.

Ladder (Above Ground Pools): To prevent Frill-NeckWIZARD

being

caught behind ladders in above ground pools, the ladder could be removed

when the Frill-NeckWIZARD

is operating, or an obstacle placed on pool

ÀRRURQERWKVLGHVRIWKHODGGHUIHHWWRSUHYHQW)ULOO1HFN:,=$5'

moving

behind the ladder.

Remove Frill-NeckWIZARD

pool cleaner when backwashing: To allow

backwash system.

Protect the Frill-NeckWIZARD

: When not in use, store in a safe, shaded

area with the hoses laid straight.

Removing trapped debris from the Engine Unit: Removing trapped debris

is simple.

A. Recover the cleaner head and rotate it while still submerged in the water

to show the underside and throat.

B. Check for large, trapped debris in the throat of the cleaner. If there is

back and forth until the obstruction is removed.

Removing and replacing the Engine Unit: The engine unit is the heart of

the Frill-NeckWIZARD

and the ball beats up to 7 times per second as it

propels the cleaner around your pool.

The engine unit or just the rubber ball may require replacement if:

RUBBER BALL REPLACEMENT

A. Pull the clear Fastening / Wear Ring down, away from the ball. Be

careful not to damage the ring.

B. Peel the ball off the engine unit by lifting it from the seal lip.

C. Replace the rubber ball if necessary and then slip the fastening ring back

over the top. The four small pins should be facing towards the engine unit.

Troubleshooting

Problem 1: Frill-NeckWIZARD

is not working/moving too slowly:

Cause Solution / Action

Pump not

switched on

Check if the pump is ON and / or primed. If not, turn ON

Lack of suction

or engine unit

obstruction

Remove obstruction from engine unit. See maintenance

tips on page 11 and 12

Ensure the cleaner hose is assembled tightly

Adjust the automatic weir valve to medium or high

setting

Clean the filter and empty the skimmer baskets

Ensure the universal weir adaptor is seated

properly in the skimmer vacuum plate

Ensure the vacuum plate is correctly seated in the

skimmer

Check that pump is in good working order

Problem 2: Frill-NeckWIZARD

is moving too fast/always up the walls:

Pump suction

too high

Adjust automatic weir valve to a lower setting

Problem 3: Frill-NeckWIZARD

will not climb walls:

Pump suction
