Hi guys, I've never had this issue before. After manually vacuum the pool, I pulled up the vacuum plate off the skimmer and an extra piece of plastic came off. And that apparently is the skimmer weir which I didn't know it existed. Also I realize the edge of the skimmer basket got sucked UNDERNEATH the ring where it was supposed to be just sitting on it, so I stopped the pump and pulled the basket back out. I don't even know it got there. Do I need a new basket, and could someone teach me how to re-install the weir? It is a hayward sp1082-k weir.

Thanks very much.
