    Cartridge Filters Not Fitting

    Thank you, I did and their reply was to push harder and/or file down the edges. Not much help since pushing harder is what got me a broken manifold. 😕

    Cartridge Filters Not Fitting

    I purchased new cartridge filters for my Hayward Swimclear. These are supposed to be direct replacements for original. Everything measured out fine, but the cartridges would not seat on the base. I placed them in the sun and was able to get them on the base, but then the alignment “spider” at...

    The Pool Cleaner (Hayward) stopping intermittently

    The teeth all seem to be good. If I pick the cleaner up and hold it in the water, everything works great. When I put it down it does almost everything but it just stops once in awhile like it’s waiting for the next gear to kick in.

    Yes. Thanks. I’ve watched quite a few of his videos. He does a good job. They seem to be fine.

    The Pool Cleaner (Hayward) stopping intermittently

    Thanks. I was wondering the same thing. I replaced the turbine and vanes, and the skirts. I’m wondering if I should replace gears or buy the entire bottom replacement. These little parts are adding up to about what the bottom would cost.

    The Pool Cleaner (Hayward) stopping intermittently

    Thanks. No luck yet. I replaced my he skirts but may need to replace some gears. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth buying more pieces or getting a new bottom replacement.

    The Pool Cleaner (Hayward) stopping intermittently

    My 2-wheel pool cleaner stops every minute or so and then starts up again. In the last few months I have replaced the rear skirts and the turbine/vanes. It was doing a great job after the skirts were replaced until the vanes got jammed up and no longer stayed on the turbine. It’s working okay...
