I don't remember if it was in the instructions, or on this site, but I think I read somewhere that the poolskim should be installed so that the bag sticks out from the wall at approximately 45 degrees.
So here's my question to the poolskim users: What is the purpose of this? The reason I ask is that in my temporary installation of the device, I had it set up with the bag parallel to the wall, and fairly close to the wall. As a matter of fact, because the wall is curved at the return where I installed it, the bag actually points back into the wall at the tail end.
I'm wondering if it was my faulty installation that has been causing problems with my Polaris. What happens is that as the Polaris climbs the wall, the wheels grab the bag and drag it off. Maybe if it was oriented away from the wall that wouldn't happen?
Does anyone have a poolskim and Polaris that get along well?
Thanks in advance,
Dave
