Polaris 8050 Sport: Unboxing,Caddy Assembly & Troubleshooting Tips
In article I go over what comes in the Polaris 8050 Sport box and how to assemble the Premium Caddy. The Polaris 8050 Sport is a retail pool store cleaner only and is only available at your local brick and mortar pool store. The Premium Caddy is pretty easy to assemble.
If you don't think you can assemble it without help for any reason, the pool store can assemble it for you. That is one of the benefits of buying something at a retail store. But if you want to do it yourself the video will go over it step by step for you.
The Polaris 8050 Sport comes packed very nicely in the box and included along with it is the control unit, instruction manual, warranty card, quick start guide and the parts for the Caddy. The Polaris Caddy is by far the easiest to assemble, the most sturdy and compact Caddy on the market. The video is simple to follow and you can play it along side yourself as you build it.
If you haven't purchased a robotic cleaner and are in the market, you can watch my overview video of the Polaris 8050 Sport to see this cleaner in action:
Since there isn't much to say about the Caddy I will include some basic troubleshooting tips here in this article for you.
The Polaris 8050 Sport should be inserted into your pool at the direct center of the pool for best cleaning coverage. You don't want to insert the cleaner on one end of the pool, especially if the pool is very large.
To prevent cord tangling you should do these two things. First, add only the cord needed to the pool for the cleaner to get to the furthest point. Don't put all of the cord in the pool unless it is needed. Leave the excess cord on the Caddy. Second, always remove the cleaner from the pool after the cleaning cycle and store it on the Caddy with the cord spooled around the cord holder. Doing these two things will prevent future cord tangling.
If the cleaner is climbing out of the pool when it climbs the walls and sucking in air, you can fix this easily. On the Controller there is “Surface Control System” with four settings. This controls the climbing strength of the cleaner so simply lowering it down one setting should solve this problem. If it is not climbing high enough, set it one setting higher.
If the cleaner does not climb the walls, run your hands along the walls and see if there is any algae build-up. This will make the walls slick and prevent the cleaner from climbing all the way up.
The debris chamber is designed to pick up very fine dirt so it is a good idea to clean it after every use. If the debris chamber gets coated with fine dirt the cleaner may not climb or clean the pool effectively. The cleaner may also float off of the ground if the chamber is really clogged up. So keeping the debris chamber clean is essential.
You may notice the cleaner sitting on the pool floor for up to 20 seconds doing nothing. It will do this often during the cleaning cycle. There is nothing wrong with the cleaner, stopping and readjusting is all part of the cleaner's program.
The Polaris 8050 Sport comes with a two year warranty which is a solid warranty for any type of pool product. For more help and Troubleshooting you can contact Polaris directly.
