The Polaris Quattro P40 Sport Hose assembly becomes tangled.
Solution:
- Remeasure the hose to verify that it is adjusted to the proper length for the pool shape.
- With the cleaner operating, check that the hose swivels and the hose connections turn freely.
- Ensure the hose is floating and the hose floats are positioned properly. Position the first float (k) up against the feed hose connector (j) and then the space hose floats 1-3 ft (30-90 cm) apart.
- Check the wheel RPM. The target wheel speed is 28-32 RPM. If the wheel speed is not in the target range, refer to Section 7 Adjust Wheel Speed.
- Straighten the hose assembly by laying it out flat in the sun.
The Polaris Quattro P40 Sport Cleaner hangs up on steps or other obstacles for 3 minutes.
Solution:
- Check the wheel RPM. The target wheel speed is 28-32 RPM. If the wheel speed is not in the target range, refer to Section 7 Adjust Wheel Speed.
- Check for debris in the filter canister and clean, if necessary.
- Ensure the hose is floating and the hose floats are positioned properly. Position the first float (k) up against the feed hose connector (j) and then the space hose floats 1-3 ft (30-90 cm) apart.
- Adjust the thrust jet. Refer to Section 8 Fine Tuning.
- Remove unnecessary pool hardware or install a Ladder Guard Kit (part # G21) from a Polaris® dealer.
- Install a Back-Up Valve accessory (part # G62, black, or part # G52, white) from a Polaris dealer. Additional hose nuts and swivels may be required. Position the backup valve and its adjacent hose float 6-8 ft (1.8 – 2.4m) away from the cleaner.
The Polaris Quattro P40 Sport Thrust jet sprays too much water out of the pool.
Solution:
- Check the thrust jet position and adjust the thrust jet flow, if necessary. Refer to Section 8 Fine Tuning.
The Polaris Quattro P40 Sport Cleaner does not clean the entire pool.
Solution:
- Ensure the hose length is adjusted to the proper length for the pool shape. Refer to Section 3 Adjust Hose Length.
- Adjust the thrust jet to improve coverage. Refer to Section 8 Fine Tuning.
The Polaris Quattro P40 Sport Cleaner does not climb walls.
Solution:
- Check the wheel RPM. The target wheel speed is 28-32 RPM. If the wheel speed is not in the target range, refer to Section 7 Adjust Wheel Speed.
- Ensure the hose is floating and the hose floats are positioned properly. Position the first float (k) up against the feed hose connector (j) and then the space hose floats 1-3 ft (30-90 cm) apart.
- Check for debris in the filter canister and clean, if necessary.
- Adjust the thrust jet. Refer to Section 8 Fine Tuning.
- For smooth surface pools (tile, fiberglass, etc.), replace both rear tires with PosiTrax® tires for more traction (available from a Polaris® dealer).

My cleaner did not move at all, I replaced the transmission and now it only goes in circles. The left side spins. The right side barely moves or doesn’t move at all..
