I. Introduction
Your new Polaris WaterStars will create a
beautiful fountain from the pressure of a typical
filtration pump. The greater the water pressure
delivered to the WaterStars, the higher your
fountain display can be.
The WaterStars comes with the universal wall
fitting connector assembly. Once the universal
wall fitting is installed, it is possible to quickly
and easily switch from a Polaris pool cleaner to
the Polaris WaterStars and back again. If the
pool cleaner is not equipped with a quick
disconnectXXX to fitting the universal wall
fitting, it can be converted to this improved
system with parts available through a
participating Polaris dealer.
If you do not currently have a pool cleaner,
please see Section V on page 3 for instruction
about Polaris automatic pool cleaners.
