Model: P40

Product Overview

The Polaris Quattro P40 is a pressure-side pool cleaner designed for all in-ground pool surfaces. It effectively cleans floors, walls, and the waterline. This cleaner is powered by a booster pump and features an extra-large debris intake and a dual-stage filtration canister for efficient debris collection.

  • Versatile Cleaning: Suitable for all in-ground pool surfaces, from floor to waterline.
  • Powerful Suction: Equipped with three powerful venturi jet vacuums and an extra-large debris intake to collect large debris like acorns, leaves, and pebbles.
  • Dual Filtration: Features a large-capacity dual-filtration canister that captures both large debris and fine particles.
  • Transparent Lid: A transparent window allows for easy monitoring of debris levels in the canister.
  • Active Scrubbing: Scrubbing brushes actively clean the pool surfaces as the unit navigates.

Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to properly set up your Polaris Quattro P40 pool cleaner:

  1. Connect to Pressure Line: Connect the pool cleaner to a dedicated pressure line in your pool system.
  2. Booster Pump Check: Ensure your booster pump is correctly installed and fully functional. The Polaris Quattro P40 requires a booster pump for operation.
  3. Attach Hose: Place the cleaner in the pool and securely attach the 31 ft feed hose to the unit and the pressure line.
  4. Initial Operation: Turn on the booster pump and observe the cleaner to confirm it is operating as expected.

Operating Instructions

Once set up, the Polaris Quattro P40 operates automatically to clean your pool. Monitor its performance to ensure optimal cleaning.

  • Automatic Navigation: The cleaner will navigate the pool independently, sweeping, scrubbing, and vacuuming debris from the floor to the waterline.
  • Water Circulation: While cleaning, the Quattro P40 circulates clean, filtered water throughout the entire pool.
  • Debris Collection: Debris is collected in the large-capacity dual-filtration canister. The transparent lid allows you to see when the canister is full.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficiency of your Polaris Quattro P40.

  1. Canister Cleaning: Regularly clean the dual-stage filtration canister. The transparent lid indicates when it's full. Simply remove the canister and rinse it thoroughly to discard collected debris.
  2. Brush Inspection: Periodically inspect the scrubbing brushes for wear and tear. Replace them if they appear damaged or ineffective.
  3. Hose Check: Ensure the 31 ft feed hose is free from kinks or damage that could impede water flow or cleaner movement.

Troubleshooting

If your Polaris Quattro P40 is not performing as expected, consider the following:

  • No Movement/Poor Suction:
    • Check that the booster pump is running and providing adequate pressure.
    • Inspect the feed hose for any blockages, kinks, or leaks.
    • Ensure the filtration canister is not full and is properly seated.
    • Verify that the debris intake is clear of large obstructions.
  • Incomplete Coverage:
    • Check for proper hose length; too much or too little hose can affect coverage.
    • Ensure the pool water chemistry is balanced, as this can sometimes affect cleaner performance.
