I have one of these cleaners and it tends to spend most of the time in the deep end. I changed the turning radius and still does the same thing. Help?

Try Adjusting the Buoy on the tether line. Plastic obround piece. It seems to help with the steering.

I have an above ground pool and the bottom middle is not much deeper than the sides, so I do not have that problem. My husband does move it occasionally to help it out.

I would check the pumping pressure. Insufficient pumping pressure won't be able to move the cleaner. Clean filter/cartridge or remove any clogging debris in the pumping pipes or adjust water branching handles as necessary to recover the presure over the cleaner. I also will check if the balance bar is still on the cleaner. Falling out of the bar also can makes it stop. But that's an easy fix.

If you have a dedicated suction line for the cleaner you decrease the suction to slow the cleaner down, same goes for using a diverter valve inside the skimmer. Ideal number of wheel rotations is 8-11 per minute.

We have that problem now after a gazillion times down the spiral. I checked out a YouTube video by Braille Skateboarding that demonstrates how to clean ball bearings on boards that I am going to try. The young man suggests cleaning with a mild citrus orange cleaner followed by a lubricant. Makes sense to me.I am also going to be cleaning the spiral and then use a gentle polish on it. My grandsons love this toy.I will post in a couple of days to let you know how this maintenace works, but I am pretty confident it will.

I purchased this a couple of months ago and it turns kind of hard-pull the handle out turn it to the number one after rolling the dough through turn to number 2 and so on. If this doesn't work your machine may be faulty. I have bad hands from arthritis and it can be difficult to use at times but we love the results.

I had the same problem when I used mine. I had been forgetting to set it on the lowest setting after doing rugs. Now I keep mine on the lowest foe even rugs and it works better picking up dirt. Be warned though if you ever take it apart to clean the roller and inside it doesn't fit together right again and doesn't sit as low to the floor. Mine did that anyway. Hope this helps. New vacuums are like xmas to me!

Try a gentle twisting motion and change it more often. With more frequent changing, it is removed more easily. Best wishes.

Hi, this is Steve over at Aqua Products. 1st this issue may be hard to diagnose over the internet, so if you want to talk to someone live please call 1-800-845-4856. Ok here are some ideas. First if you bring the cleaner up to the pool surface you should be able to see if the water flow switches from forward to backward after say 30 seconds if this does not happen it could be debris stuck in the intake, or in the propeller. Please also check if the bag was installed properly. lastly it could be a simple spring on the flap. I hope this helps.steve

I am having trouble with wheels turning freely , so we have reversed washer to the inside of the wheel. It still is having trouble turning freely. In General it does well on sand if our wheels will keep turning. JA

All I can say is- sorry? I was not happy with mine. I suggest you contact Dirt Devil and find out if they may exchange it for a new one or have a fix. I don't recommend this model.

I think when i use attachments sweeper brush stop turning and i think also in upright position.

On my ProHeat Pet the brushes stop when the handle is locked upright, I presume so you don't park it and wear a hole in the carpet. Once you lower the handle to start cleaning again they start spinning again.

I have not had any problem and I have two of them. Maybe it's the cleaner you are using?

My handle doesn't stick too much, I feel like I read some other reviews that said it did after having it for a while. It may depend on the type of cleaner that is it there. Something with baking soda could potentially get clogged. I might recommend running some hot water through the sprayer system.

Maybe the hose is too long? Mine will curl up in a circle sometimes when I put hose up wrapped up but if I stretch it out straight it seems to help.

The suction spins the dirt in a small "tornado" pattern. That's what you were seeing. There is nothing mechanical that spins. If You're not seeing the spin, you probably have a clogged hose. The hose right by the beater bar often clogs.
