READ THESE IMPORTANT OPERATING TIPS BEFORE USING YOUR UNIT! Dear Hayward Robotic Cleaner Owner: Thank you for choosing Hayward. In order to achieve optimal performance, please read and follow these steps: 1. Cleaner filter cartridges should be thoroughly cleaned after each use or as often as needed to ensure cleaner's optimal performance. 2. Before using your cleaner and especially when opening the pool for the first time remove larger items from the pool that may diminish the cleaner's performance.
GENERAL OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS Take a moment to get familiar with the TigerShark using the figure on page 9. Throughout this manual reference to this figure is made when referring to different components of the TigerShark. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Select the nearest GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protected 110-120 volt AC outlet (220-240 volt for 240 volt models).
WATERLINE SCRUBBING Check the waterline climbing height 1. 2. 3. Make sure your TigerShark’s filter is clean. See Owner’s Manual (page 10) for instructions. Place the unit in the pool and observe the waterline climbing height. When observing, allow the unit to go through several cycles so that you can get an average estimate.
TIGERSHARK QC OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 1. 2. 3. For installation, setup and general operation information refer to the General Operating Instructions (page 5). For selection of the desired cleaning cycle follow steps 2 and 3 below. When the TigerShark QC model is initially switched on, the Quik Clean cycle will automatically be selected. This is indicated by the light on the cycle selection switch located on the power supply. The TigerShark QC pool cleaner will automatically shut-off in 90 minutes.

MAINTENANCE Clean the filter cartridge after each use: • Place the TigerShark on its side. Release the bottom lid latches (page 13, Fig. d) and remove the bottom lid assembly (page 14, Fig. e). • Pull out the filter cartridge. Your cartridge is a three piece filter assembly (Part# RCX70100) that you may or may not remove the elements (Part# RCX70101) for thorough cleaning. Using a garden hose with a spray nozzle, pressure-wash the filter elements to remove debris.
IMPORTANT TIPS • • • • • • • Cleaning the filter cartridge after every use maximizes the unit’s performance. If the TigerShark has troubles climbing the pool walls during the middle of the cleaning cycle, clean the filter and resume cleaning. Replace worn brushes (page 9, #12) to ensure maximum cleaning performance. To avoid clogging the TigerShark’s filter elements, be sure all chemical powders are fully dissolved before operating the cleaner.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE In order to maximize efficiency and receive long term service of your unit, we suggest the following: • Thoroughly rinse entire unit after use. • Clean filters thoroughly after each use—a clogged filter can decrease efficiency dramatically. • Remove any twists in the cord after each use. Twisting should be minimal if the unit is functioning properly. Laying cord, straightened out in sunlight is helpful. • Avoid allowing the unit to “cool down” in the water.
