I just received this it seems to work well, but works backwards of how I thought it would is that correct? Can I adjust the direction?

these kind of cleaners all "back-up" it's the result of the flapper valve inside creating a bump to the unit causing it to move backward to a new place each cycle. The direction cannot be adjusted but the cleaner will wander around your pool aimlessly, eventually covering almost the entire pool except the shallowest places, like the first two steps, or a love seat.

In addition to info. below-- do remember that it will need to be recalibrated every time you move it--even if moving it a little. I think that means doing what K. Jackson, below, said to do. Good luck...

It depends how you you mount it. There is an arrow to tell you which way the air is flowing so you should be able to rotate it to the direction desired. I needed it to suck and was mounting it inside a box followed the arrow and it worked wonderfully.

need to tweak it while on the ground. which means to keep it from spinning left or right.have it running to see which direction its going. then turn the tweak knob the opposite way. that should set it right

I don't think switching the wirse will make it reverse. Don't know how to slow it down. Sorry

As others have noted, it can't done. If you want it pointed in another direction you have to turn the whoe unit. All depends on whether you have the space to do that.

I have no idea why yours runs backwards, but I do recall that there is a switch that makes the thing stand still. And maybe something was installed backwards on yours. I haven't used mine in years so I don't recall all the details.

I agree with the first reply, however you can mount it frontwards or backwards so it can be positioned down and back or down and forward. Hope this helps. Jon

You have it hooked up backwards. I am not sure this is possible unless you have flexible moveable pipes.

It should be either direction. There are NO arrows or indicators. When connecting mine, I picked a random end.

just lift the little button next to the speed dial UP! then it will stay in the direction that you want it to be adjusted to.

No way to control the discharge direction. Try using it to go all one direction if you can. This is when that high school geometry that we all didn't need helps some.lol

I only used it once when I got it last year but I believe just buy turning if off and then on again it reverses direction.

Noo its not at right angle, its straight works much better than the right angle one, trust me!!!

Thanks man, for the comment. Can't figure this device out. Seems to work backwards, but works !

I'm gonna say it's defective - I am aware of no way to manually change the direction, so I assume it must be wired in reverse.

Interesting question. So I tried it & I was able to mount it backwards. Yes you can.
