Dolphin M200 - Floats on one side/won't cling to the bottom

[gstaub22]

Hi,

New problem this pool season. My M200 will not stay flat and clean the bottom of the pool. It continues to run but leans to one side. Sometimes it doesn't go to the bottom by rather floats and leans.

The Right Side is the one that always lifts.

Any suggestions? Nothing appears broken externally.

Welcome to TFP

Is there maybe some air in it, could you try turning it around under water?

If not it may be the pump is getting blocked by something...

22,

My guess is that the suction motor, the one that blows out the top, is either not working or clogged with leaves...

When you turn it on, do you see any water movement that indicates the suction motor is moving water???

Thanks,

Jim R.
