While the Pacer B3™ is designed for easy installation, some

preliminary steps will assist the installation process.

Where possible, assembly should take place as close to the weir

as possible.

PREPARING YOUR POOL AND FILTRATION SYSTEM

1) Empty the weir basket.

2) Clean the pump basket.

3) Backwash and rinse the lter until the sight glass is clear.

4) Adjust all return jets (whether your pool has one, two or more) to

point downwards and towards the centre of the pool so that you DO

NOT see a circular water ow or ripples on the surface of your pool.

5) Ensure your water chemistry is correct. See page 12 or below for

more on this.

* When using chemicals, always follow manufacturers’ directions and follow the advice of your

pool professional. Always use protective clothing, gloves and glasses. Store and use chemicals

out of the reach of children.

ASSEMBLING THE HOSES

With your swimming pool preparation complete, you are ready to begin

installation.

WARNING: To avoid severe injury, make sure to turn off

the pool pump prior to completing these steps.

Your Hose Quick Connector should already be connected to the cleaner

head when received in the packaging. Remove this part from your cleaner

and begin the following steps. If not already connected to your pool cleaner,

you will nd it in your accessory bag.

1. Connect the rst length of hose to the

Hose Quick Connector and twist until it

locks into place.

2. Add the Adjustable Deector Wheel

by clipping it onto the hose which has

just been connected to the Hose Quick

Connector. This part is adjustable and

can be moved up and down the hose

to deect the cleaner head away from

difcult areas in your pool. You will need

to determine the best position but start

with the Adjustable Deector Wheel as

close to the Hose Quick Connector as

possible (as shown in the illustration).

Lastly, connect your Hose Quick

Connector to the female cuff.

3. Push the Hose Quick

Connector with hose onto

the head of the cleaner until

the two parts lock together.

You can do this above or in

the water.

SECTION 1 – INSTALLATION

CONNECTING TO THE WEIR

In your accessory bag, you will nd an Auto Weir Valve connected to

a 90º Twist Lock Elbow. This part connects to your weir as described

below. The last hose in your line of hoses will then connect to the 90º

Twist Lock Elbow.

4. With your rst hose now connected to the cleaner head, continue

connecting the rest of your hose lengths to the rst hose. In order

to connect each hose length together, add the male end of one hose

to the female end of another. Twist until the two parts securely lock

together. Setting 2 on the ratchet system setting is advised, but use

whichever setting you feel is best. Continue connecting your hose

lengths together until your reach the farthest point of your pool

(measured from weir) and then add one extra length.

Note: Ensure only genuine Zodiac Twist Lock Hoses are used for optimum

performance.

SECTION 2 – CORRECT SETTINGS

You will only need to adjust the Auto Weir Valve if the following occurs:

AUTO WEIR VALVE

The Zodiac Auto Weir Valve is preset at the factory to obtain maximum pool

cleaning efciency. Your Pacer B3™ is preset on setting 2. However, if you

do experience difculties, it can be manually adjusted to one of the three

settings (high, medium or low - see adjustment settings below).

Your Pacer B3™ Pool

Cleaner is performing too

fast and/or climbing above

the level of water.

Your Pacer B3™ Pool

Cleaner is performing slowly

and/or not climbing the pool

walls.

SECTION 2 – CORRECT SETTINGS

CORRECT BALANCING

The Pacer B3™ cycles on/off with the pool filtration pump, vacuuming

and cleaning surfaces randomly throughout the pool. The coverage of

the cleaner is dependent on the pool’s shape and available water flow.

The main purpose of your Hose Weight is to adjust your cleaner’s

balance which is vital for its performance.

A properly balanced hose will create a 45º angle between the cleaner and

the bottom of the pool. Make sure your disc is flat in the deepest part of

the pool for correct balance.

POOL COVERAGE

While the return line water flow should not affect the natural movement

of the hose, there are occasions where it can be beneficial.

Return line pressure can be used to balance cleaning coverage and guide

the cleaner away from steps and corners.

A return line, located anywhere along the shaded area, can gently push

the hose – allowing the unit to free itself from any in-pool obstacles.
