Check your weight placements. Your hose is either too light and floating up and flipping over or too heavy and sinking and rolling over. My pool is 6 feet at the deepest part and I fixed this issue by actually removing the weight in the front. I still have one in the middle. To keep the unit lower and off the wall I re added the weight to the very end of the hose where the hose plugs in to the cleaner. This solved my issue of flipping over. I think if your pool is not very deep you do not need so much weight on your hose. 1. Hose too light. If the hose rises toward the surface at an angle greater than 45 , move the weights closer to Kreepy Krauly, or move the first two weights closer to each other. 2. Hose too heavy. If the hose sags downward at an angle less than 45, move the weights away from Kreepy Krauly, or separate the first two weights farther from each other.

Check the weight pieces on the balance hook and on the hose. Make sure all air are bleed from the hose

If ordered using Prime - exchange it but first check your water jets to ensure they are pushing returning water across the top and middle of your pool and not pointed down. When jets are pointed down it can intensify a cyclonic, circular water and impede any cleaners ability to move freely around your pool.. hope you've worked the problem out! Enjoy the remaining Summer!

The globe unscrews and I do this all in the sink or outside by the hose. Fill the globe and hold it upside down so that I can screw the bottom on tight and then flip it right up and no problems. While screwing on the black bottom portion, that part is on top while you are holding the globe upside down. Works great.

after it flips upside down, hit ctrl+alt+up arrow together to see if this flips it back up.

That's normal. As water gets closer to the top the pool will go back to its normal shape.

I have had good luck by adjusting the direction of flow of the water on the valve on the side of the pool where the water comes out to circulate the water in the pool (I'm sorry, I can't think of the "technical" name for that valve at this time. Sometimes adjusting the angle of the flow lower, towards the bottom of the pool helps, but it is something you will need to play with to see what works for your particular size pool. Then, of course, anytime you take your hoses out of the water, it is also very important to keep the hose in a straight line, not in a pile. But the first suggestion is what always fixed my tangling issue.

The pool has multiple outlets, so if the one you attach the Poolskim to does not create enough suction, you can take one of these plates and cover up one of the other return jets. This will increase the pressure at the other return jets, thus increasing the suction at your Poolskim. The blue pins are to be inserted on the floating rim IF you use an automatic vacuum. The pins prevent the hose from being pulled into the skimmer.

Kreepy costs more while paying more when you can get same result. C leaning the pool.

there should be a turn cap on the plastic cup that you fill with water and solution.that is then put upside down into the unit.

Have you tried looking under the suction make sure no leaves are stuck also use the pool stream to shoot out any debri...sometimes this helps..could be clogged..

Be sure one of the wheels on the bottom is not locked up. That could cause it to spin in one direction. also check that the hose connections spin freely otherwise it will jam up the cleaner. Hope this helps

I bought a Twister that goes after my leaf canister that slowly turns the hose so to never hangs up my kreepy. It did prior to the Twister. $50 on Amazon. Get it!

Same problem on my in ground plastered pool. Tried different weights on hose and used the swivel attachment. Tried different lengths of hose also. Nothing works.

Yes, I have had the same problem: winds up into a spiral and then can't clean the pool. Took it apart, saw nothing wrong. Went online for solutions, tried those. Final solution: tie the bug to a jug full of water, and put it at various places around the edge of the pool. Then the bottom sweep will move around and clean the bottom.Bill Kustes

the bottom of the spigot is parallel to ther floor. the top of the spigot has a slight downward angle.

You should try to have it as level as humanly possible! If it isn't the pool will not fill correctly, the top ring will not set right and it tends to get mildew buildup where it is uneven.

The picture is actually upside down. The picture shows the mounting feet on the top while when installed in the machine the feet point down and are attached to the base of the washer. Another interesting aspect of the picture of a pump is that they managed to hide the attachment points of the two hoses. The inlet hose attaches to the back of the trap chamber on the left foreground of the picture. The trap keeps change and other debris from entering the pump. The pump itself is in the middle of the picture. The outlet extends at a 45 angle and cannot be seen becaust it is directly on the other side of the pump. The tan cap covers the motor and is normally on the right. Other than showing the pump rotated 180, the pump is in the correct orientation in the machine. You can open and empty the trap from the front without removing the pump. Removing the pump is tricky as you have to depress the black rubber padding on the feet in just the right way in order to remove the pump. Search YouTube for videos on how to do this. Be prepared for water! Since the pump is located at the bottom of the machine it cannot pump out all the water. Using a wet-vac to suck water out of the exaust tube gets rid of most of it.
