it has to be turned to open, and turned to reclose. Mine didn't stay closed very good. But it might of been me.

Maybe you can try to release the vacuum in there first by reversing the valve to "discharge" ....

Hose hooks into where the vacuum goes. This gives u control of where to vacuum.

I have not noticed a suction. The hinges are spring loaded so the door has some resistance when opening.

The water from the hose is redirected to exit through the catch net. The pressure of the moving water will move any dirt or other matter up and into the catch net. TO call it a vacuum is a misnomer, but that is basicly what it does. It will clean the bottom of the pool, and does it very well.

I installed mine from the timer to the hose. When the timer/valve goes shut, the remaining water in the hose will vent/drain thru the vacuum breaker.

It depends on how your vac is wired. It's designed to turn on upon insertion.

I actually used my regular vacuun cleaner. I just placed to suction hose over the opening and turned it on. Be suer you lock the valve by turning to the right after you get all the air out. To reopen the bags, simply turn the valve to the left and it will expand. Good luck!

The reach should automatically have suction if the vacuum is on and in the upright position. Sounds like your vacuum is malfunctioning. You should contact whoever you purchased it from or take it to a repair center.

Hi Jan. I would assume that, like every vacuum cleaner, something could be stuck (may be in the hose) preventing the water to be sucked up.

It adjusts the vacuum pressure depending on if the food is moist or dry. When a food is moist (like fresh meat), it pulls some of the juice into a collection tray as it vacuums and seals it. The V2440 and the Gamesaver Deluxe are the exact same machine and they are wonderful. I own 2 of them.

The vac is on when you put the cloth in the end. It then is sucked into the system and ends up in your collction bag at the end where it stays until I toss that bag out. It doesn't interfere with anything. It is garbage.. After I insert the cloth, and I hear it being sucked into the system, I leave the vac on so that the air will dry out the hose for a full five minutes. Works great, and keeps your hose clean

I use a vacuum cleaner and it sucks every bit of air inside. The problem are the bags' valves. They don't keep the vacuum.

The cord comes out of the top by on/off switch and wraps around a piece that is on back side of vacuum in picture. That piece has holes in it for some of the attachments. hope this helps,

You hook it up to the same place where you would attach the hose for vacuuming the pool manually, and you put the lid into the skimmer basket so that the vacuum will have suction, just like you would if you were vacuuming manually. Hope that helps.

There is a plastic screen that protrudes into the canister of the vacuum. It does a good job keeping said debris out of the pump, but does get clogged every so often as would be expected. Overall, the system works great!
