GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION
Pre-installation check list
Before installing your cleaner, review and understand all warnings and safety information in this guide. Failure to
follow these instructions or improper installation of the cleaner can result in damage to the pool finish or the vinyl
liner, Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc. disclaims any liability for repairs or replacement to any of these structures
or components of the customer’s pool.
Before installing the cleaner in a vinyl liner pool:
Check liner closely for signs of deterioration or damage from age, chemicals, pool wall damage, etc. If any
damage is found, have a qualified pool professional make all the necessary repairs. Also, if there are stones,
roots, etc., under the liner, remove them before installing the cleaner.
Before installing the cleaner in a gunite pool or a pool that is partially or completely tiled:
Repair loose tiles and tighten any loose light rings.
Before installing the cleaner, clean your filter system:
Make sure you have cleaned the filter, including backwashing, rinsing, and emptying all baskets. A clean
system is necessary for proper cleaner operation and coverage.
Before installing the cleaner, fill the hose with water:
Always make sure the cleaner head is submerged and the hose is full of water before connecting the hose to
the filtration system (whether through a skimmer or dedicated wall fitting). Air in the system can damage the
pump through dry running and overheating.
Before installing the cleaner, understand cleaner coverage:
The cleaner is designed to rid your pool of debris in approximately 4-6 hours. Less time could be needed,
depending on the pool size. The cleaner was not designed to automatically clean steps or swimouts or to
work under a solar cover. It was also not designed to do initial cleanup for a new pool or when opening your
pool for the season.
AFTER installing the cleaner, make sure the cleaner is operating correctly :
The cleaner may need some minor adjustments to make sure it is operating properly so there is no damage
to the pool finish. Certain vinyl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to surface wear, pattern removal, ink
rubbing off of, or serious scratches to the pattern caused by objects coming into contact with the vinyl surface,
including automatic pool cleaners. Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc. is not responsible for any pattern removal,
abrasions or markings on vinyl liners.
Disclaimer of Liability
About Your Pool and Legend II
There are a multitude of factors that contribute to the life of your pool. The Legend II automatic pool cleaner is a very passive product that
will have no impact on pool life.
Please be aware that over time, deterioration, discoloration and brittleness of any pool finish can be caused separately by, or in combination
with, age, an imbalance in pool water chemistry, improper installation and other factors. An automatic pool cleaner, such as Legend II,
will not remove or cause wear on “good” pool plaster. In fact, the opposite is true–pool plaster will eventually cause wear on the cleaner.
The same situation holds true for vinyl-lined in-ground swimming pools, because vinyl liners are also affected by the environment and
factors such as pool water chemistry, sunlight and the pool’s surroundings. Therefore over time, vinyl can become brittle and weak. In
addition, vinyl-lined pools are affected by the workmanship, composition and installation of the liner and the workmanship and quality of
construction of the supporting walls and pool base. These are all factors which can contribute to liner failure. The existence of any of
these type of conditions in your pool is not caused by the use or operation of Legend II. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for
repairs or replacement to any of these structures or components of the customer’s pool.
The pool owner must assume all responsibility for the condition and maintenance of the pool’s surface, water and deck.
WARRANTY INFORMATION
Limited Warranty Terms & Conditions
Before installing your cleaner, review and understand all warnings, safety and warranty information in this guide. Failure to follow these
instructions or improper installation of the cleaner can result in damage to the pool finish or the vinyl liner, Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc.
disclaims any liability for repairs or replacement to any of these structures or components of the customer’s pool.
The Cleaner manufacturer, Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc. (“Manufacturer”), hereby provides the following limited warranty to the
purchaser (“Customer”): WHICH IS SUBJECT ONLY TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS AND EXCLUSIONS:
This limited warranty does not include replacement of parts which become discolored due to exposure to sunlight or chemicals, or parts
which, even if worn, do not affect performance of the cleaner. Nicks, scratches, fading, discoloration, etc. are cosmetic conditions that
do not affect mechanical performance. Both Manufacturer and Pentair Water Pool and Spa’s dealer reserve the right to deny
any and all warranty claims made for worn parts if the wear does not negatively affect mechanical performance of the
cleaner.
The Cleaner is designed to function in a properly designed, constructed and maintained pool. This limited warranty does not extend in the
circumstances where the pool’s design, construction or maintenance is defective, substandard or inappropriate for the Cleaner’s
operation.
Deterioration, discoloration or brittleness of any pool finish can be caused over time separately by, or in combination with, age, an
imbalance in water chemistry, improper installation, and other factors. Customer hereby disclaims any and all claims, and releases
Manufacturer from any and all claims for damages to any pool plaster or vinyl liner in Customer’s pool by reason of the use and/or
operation of the Cleaner.
Under no circumstances shall Manufacturer be liable for any loss or damage, whether direct, consequential or incidental, arising out of the
use or inability to use the Cleaner or the Hose in Customer’s pool.
This limited warranty does not apply to any injury, loss, damage, defect, or malfunction of the Cleaner or failure to function resulting from
any failure to operate or maintain the Cleaner in accordance with the directions contained in the Installation and Operation Manual or
operating instructions provided by Pentair Water Pool and Spa or any injury, loss, damage, defect, or malfunction, or failure to function
resulting from any accident, acts of God, alterations in the Cleaner by anyone other than Manufacturer; or misuse, unreasonable use,
tampering, abuse, acts, omissions, failure or negligence by anyone other than Manufacturer including but not limited to such damages
or injuries to parts resulting from improper installation, or damage to pump parts resulting from running the pump dry (e.g., interruption

LEGEND® II INSTALLATION MANUAL
I. Introduction
A. Thank You for Choosing the
Legend ®
II Pool Cleaner
Congratulations on the purchase of your new
automatic pool cleaner. The Legend® II is designed
to give you years of dependable and efficient service.
With the Legend® II, you and your family will spend
more time relaxing and enjoying your pool and less
time cleaning it.
The Legend® II has been designed and built with time
proven features and innovations to create an
automatic pool cleaner that will give you years of
dependable service. The Legend® II is built with pride
by people who care about the product using state of
the art materials and backed by a limited warranty
that protects against defects in parts and
construction.
Like any mechanical device, the Legend® II
requires some preventative maintenance and the
replacement of certain working parts. We
recommend that you have your Legend® II checked
annually. For best results have your Legend® II
installed by a qualified swimming pool professional.
For pool owners with plumbing and mechanical
experience, installation instructions are included in
this manual.
Please put safety first! Be sure to take your
Legend® II out of your pool and store it carefully in a
shaded area before anyone enters the pool.
B. What to Expect from the Legend®
II
When operating correctly, the Legend® II will travel
randomly throughout the pool, vacuuming and
sweeping the bottom. The climbing ability of the
Legend® II is dependent on the pools shape. It will
climb better in pools without sharp angles or curves
in the transition from the pool floor to the pool wall.
The Legend® II comes equipped with a Wall Fitting
(Part# LXW22/360024) that features a Twist Lock
Automatic Pressure Relief Valve. If the Legend® II
is receiving too much water pressure to the unit,
the relief valve can be manually adjusted to reduce
water pressure.
Approximately every three minutes and 30 seconds
the Legend® II will go into a back up mode. At this
time the Back-Up Valve will pull the Legend® II away
from it’s current location increasing it’s random
pattern.
The Sweep Hose operates in a gentle sweeping
motion to prevent debris from becoming trapped in
hard to reach corners of the pool.

D. Pressure Testing Instructions
1. Make sure the pool filter is clean before
conducting this pressure test.
2. Twist lock the Wall Fitting with Feeder Hose into
the Wall Adapter.
3. Have someone hold the Pressure Tester end of
the Feed Hose beneath the water while you turn
on the pool pump. Continue holding the hose
under the water and cover the large hole of the
pressure tester.
4. Reach down and feel around the Pressure Relief
Valve on the Wall Fitting to see if the Relief Valve
is releasing any water pressure. If valve is
releasing water pressure go on to Section E.
If it is not, the pool filtration pump may not have
sufficient amount of water pressure to operate the
Legend® II.
BEFORE YOU GO TO THE NEXT STEP,
CONTACT OUR TECHNICAL SUPPORT
DEPARTMENT AT: 1-800-831-7133
E. Cutting the Feed Hose
(See Hose Diagram on Page 15)
The Hose assembly comes in 6 sections covering
approximately 30 ft. of the pool, which provides ample
hose for most residential pools. For larger or smaller
pools, see Page 11 for instructions on Adding or
Deleting Additional Feeder Hose.
1. Take Feeder Hose out of box and lay the hose
straight in the sun for one day if possible, (this
will take any memory out of the hose due to being
coiled up in the box).
2. With the pool pump on, hold the free end of the
Feeder Hose underwater. Gently pull the hose to
the farthest end of the corner of the pool, do not
stretch the hose. (The Legend® II usually will not
climb the top step, so you do not need to include
it in the measurement.) If the hose just reaches
the farthest point of your pool, and without any
excess hose hanging over the deck, then go to
Section F.
3. If the Feeder Hose extends past the farthest end
of the pool, mark the excess hose hanging over
the deck, turn off your pool pump, and cut first 6 ft.
section of hose, closest to the wall, the length of
excess.
4. IMPORTANT: Please double check the hose
length to insure you will be getting the maximum
performance from your pool cleaner. The hose
lengthens when under pressure (when your pump
is on).

LEGEND® II INSTALLATION MANUAL
F. Hooking up the Legend® II
1. Remove the Pressure Tester from the free end of
the Feed Hose by unscrewing the Mender Nut,
left hand thread (reverse). (See illustration below.)
3. Carefully twist lock the Sand & Silt debris bag
onto the top of the Legend® II Vacuum Tube. Make
sure there is a Rubber Debris Valve attached to
the top of the Vacuum Tube before locking on the
Sand & Silt bag, (this valve is similar to a check
valve to help keep debris inside the bag when
the water pressure is off).
4. Attach the Sand & Silt bag clip to the space
between the Back-Up Valve and the 18” hose.
5. Gently place the Legend® II in the pool. Turn on
the pool filtration pump.
6. Check to make sure the wheel RPM is between
25-32. See page 5 for instructions on wheel RPM.
G. Checking Operation
When operating correctly, the Legend® II will travel
in a random pattern throughout the pool, vacuuming
and sweeping the bottom. The climbing ability of the
Legend® II is dependent on the pools structure and
water flow coming into the pool. It will perform more
efficiently in pools without sharp angles or curves in
the transition from the floor of the pool to the wall.
The Legend® II comes with a Twist Lock Pressure
Relief Valve (Wall Fitting). If the Legend® II is receiving
too much water pressure, the Pressure Relief Valve
in the Wall Fitting will release the excess water
pressure.
Approximately every three minutes and 30 seconds
the Legend® II will go into a back-up mode. The
Back-Up Valve cycle time, while in the back-up mode,
is approximately 30 seconds, pulling the Legend® II
from it’s current location increasing it’s random
pattern.
The Sweep Hose operates in a gentle sweeping
motion to prevent debris from becoming trapped in
hard to reach corners of the pools.
If the Legend® II does not travel to all areas of the
pool, turn off the pool filtration pump and make the
necessary adjustments from the instructions on the
next page.

align in the same direction as the Swivel Mast,
there should be no twist in the Feed Hose after
connection. (See illustration below.)
LEGEND® II INSTALLATION MANUAL
H. Fine Tuning the Legend® II
1. Thrust Jet Adjustment
There are two Thrust Jets located in the back of the
Legend® II. These Thrust Jets alter the direction of
the cleaner. The factory standard position for the jets
is set slightly to the right. (See illustration below.)
In certain pools, altering the thrust jets can increase
performance of the Legend® II. Moving the thrust jets
up can increase climbing, and moving them down
can decrease climbing. Moving the thrust jets to the
left pushes the unit left and moving them to the right
pushes the unit right.
2. Sweep Hose Adjustment
The Sweep Hose operates in a gentle sweeping
motion. To increase or decrease the motion of the
Sweep Hose, adjust the screw located on the Swivel
Mast Barb below the Ballast Float. Turning the screw
clockwise will decrease the motion and counter
clockwise to increase the motion of the Sweep Hose.
3. Checking Wheel RPM
To determine whether the Legend® II is receiving the
proper water pressure, turn off the pool pump, and
carefully remove the Legend® II from the pool.
Mark the front drive Tire/Wheel with a marker, or use
the Logo located on the side of tire as a marker to
count the rotations of the wheel per minute.
Have someone turn on pool pump while you place
the Legend® II in the pool just beneath the water
surface. (Be sure to hold onto the Sweep Hose to
avoid getting wet.)
Count the rotations of the marked wheel for exactly
one minute. (Be sure the Back-Up Valve isn't cycling
at this time.) The rotations will give you the
Revolutions Per Minute, (RPM).
For proper performance, the Legend® II operates
between 25-32 RPM. If the RPM is below 25 then
closely follow the instructions on the next page.

III. Operation/Periodic Maintenance
A. Connecting/Disconnecting the
Legend® II
Turn off pool pump. Then take the Wall Fitting and
twist lock the Wall Fitting clockwise into the Wall
Adapter. To disconnect the Legend® II, unlock and
twist counter clockwise. The Wall Adapter should
remain in the pool wall.
B. Turning On/Off the Legend® II
The Legend® II operates off a filtration pump coming
from the equipment pad, and can be turned on or off
by merely turning on/off your pump time clock.
C. Cleaning the Sand & Silt Bag
Carefully unlock the debris bag from the vacuum
tube. Use your thumb to push the "U" shaped snap
lock closure upward until it snaps open. Make sure
to swing it away from the opening. Open the bag and
remove debris.
3. Checking RPM - (cont.)
1. Clean the Screen located inside the Wall Fitting.
A small amount of debris will significantly affect
the performance of the cleaner.
2. Clean the skimmer basket, pump basket and pool
filter.
3. If an adjustable Gate (3-way) Valve has been
installed, adjust the valve to increase water flow
to the Legend® II.
4. If the RPM is more than 32, at the Wall Fitting,
unscrew the Pressure Relief Valve slowly until
the RPM falls between 25-32. Again, if an
adjustable gate (3-way) valve has been installed,
adjust the gate valve to decrease water flow to
the Legend® II.
5. If you continue to have problems with either the
water flow or obtaining the specified water
pressure to operate the Legend® II, call your
Professional Pool Dealer.
If you have any additional questions, please
contact Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc.,
Technical Support Department at:
1-800-831-7133, Monday through Friday.

D. Periodic Maintenance
The following parts are wear items that should be
checked, maintained or replaced as needed. Wear
items are considered any working or moving part(s)
being worn due to the use of the cleaner. Wear items
are not covered under warranty.
1. Wall Fitting Screen
Inside the wall fitting is a filter screen that acts as a
secondary filter. This screen is to keep debris that is
passed by the pool filter out of the Legend® II.
Running the Cleaner without the filter screen can
damage the Legend® II and will void the warranty.
A continuous plugged or dirty screen is a sign of
problems in your pool filtration system and you need
to contact your local pool professional.
To clean the filter screen, pull the screen out from
inside the Wall Fitting and rinse thoroughly and push
back inside the wall fitting.
Whenever cleaning, back washing or repairing filter,
remove the wall fitting and flush out the dedicated
line before using the Legend® II.

between cycles.
Reconnect the debris bag to the vacuum tube.
Do NOT over turn.
A Helpful Hint: It is easier to empty the debris bag
when it is dry. A second bag may be used while the
full debris bag is drying.
It's best to empty the debris bag when it becomes
half full. The Legend® II will have better performance
if the bag is not overloaded.

III. Operation/Periodic Maintenance -
(cont.)
2. Tires & Bearings
The tires are designed to protect the bottom of your
pool and provide better traction. You need to rotate
or replace the tires when the tire is worn up to the
wear groove.
The Wheel Bearings are warranted free of defects
when shipped from Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc.,
and are considered a wear item. A good bearing will
spin freely.
3. Roller Rings
Your Sweep Hose has a series of Roller Rings to
protect the Sweep Hose. Replace the rings as
needed. You can rotate the Roller Rings to prevent
flat spots.
4. Debris Bags
Fine Mesh Sand & Silt Bag
The Legend® II comes with a Sand & Silt bag for
general use in all pools. We do not recommend using
the fine mesh bag to pick up leaves and twigs or other
large debris for they have sharp points and edges
that can poke holes and eventually rip the bag.
Optional Leaf Bag
The leaf bag is a larger mesh bag made to pick up
heavier debris such as leaves. twigs, acorns, etc.
This bag can be helpful especially after a storm.
A Helpful Hint: To prolong the life of bags, remove
cleaner from pool before adding chemicals.
5. Sweep Hose
The Sweep Hose is provided to help keep the bottom
and sides of your pool clean. The Sweep Hose is
warranted free of defects when shipped from the
factory, and is considered a wear item.
6. Debris Valve
This valve is located under the Debris Bag, it is
designed to keep the debris inside the bag. It
functions like a check valve to allow the debris to
only enter through the bag one way. Replacement is
needed when valve begins to stiffen.
E. Back Washing the Pool Filter
Always disconnect the Legend® II from the pool wall
before cleaning or back washing the pool filter. After
cleaning or back washing, let the pool filtration system
run for a minimum of five minutes to flush out the
return lines before reconnecting the Legend® II.

To insure the best performance from your cleaner,
follow the troubleshooting guide listed below.
IV. TROUBLESHOOTING AND PERFORMANCE TIPS
Problem: Legend® II will not back up.
Solution: 1. Determine if the Back-Up Valve is
cycling. (Hold the valve out of the
water and the jet should come on for
approx. 30 seconds, and shut off for
approx. 3 minutes and 30 seconds.)
2. Check the wheel RPM, (see pages 5-6).
3. Empty the debris bag if full or half full.
Problem: Legend® II will not climb.
Solution: 1. Even if your pool doesn't show algae
you still need to brush the sides of the
pool wall.
2. Check the wheel RPM, (see pages 5-6).
3. Reposition the Thrust Jet. Loosen the
two screws to adjust the Thrust Jet.
A reminder: The climbing ability of the Legend® II is
dependent on the pool's shape and available water
pressure. It will climb better in pools without sharp
angles or curves in the transition from the pool floor to
the pool wall.
Problem: Hoses tangling.
Solution: 1. Check the length of the Feed Hose,
they may be to long. (See pages 3-4.)
2. Check to see that the Feed Hose is
floating on top of surface. Check hose
floats for even spacing.
3. Twist the Hose Swivels to see if they
spin freely and replace any that will not.
4. Lay out the Feed Hose straight in the
full sun to remove any memory.
A. PROBLEMS & SOLUTIONS
Problem: Legend® II doesn't move or moves
sluggishly or hangs up on steps.
Solution: 1. Be sure filter and filter pump are on
and working properly. (You may need
to clean your pool filter system.)
2. Check to see if the skimmer and
basket are clean.
3. Check the Wall Fitting screen for debris
and rinse clean.
4. Check wheel RPM, (see pages 5-6).
5. Determine if the Back-Up Valve is
cycling. (Hold the valve out of the
water and the jet should come on for
approx. 30 seconds and shut off for
approx. 3 minutes and 30 seconds.)
6. Check all the Hose connections and
Swivels for leaks that can cause loss
of water pressure.
7. Check debris that may be jammed in
the gear teeth on one of the front drive
wheels. Gently rotate the front wheels
backward to dislodge debris.
Problem: Legend® II flies around pool.
Solution: 1. Check wheel RPM, and if more than
32 RPM make adjustment at Wall
Fitting by turning the Pressure Relief
Valve slowly until RPM falls between
25-32; or if an adjustable gate valve
has been installed, adjust the valve to
decrease water flow.
2. Air in system, see a Pool Professional.

1. Tips on Hose Cutting for Larger Pools.
If the hose is short of the farthest end of the pool,
add an additional section of hose (Part # LX17/
360020), one Swivel (Part # LX19/360023), two
Mender Nuts w/O-Rings (Part # LX20/360022),
and one Hose Float (Part # LXD10/360019). See
diagram below. Re-measure and follow guides on
pages 3-4.
TIPS FOR CUTTING HOSE IN A SMALL POOL,
AND FOR ADDING HOSES FOR LARGE POOLS
1. Tips on Hose Cutting for Smaller Pools.
If the hose hangs over the deck more than 9 ft. or the
pool is less than 6 ft. deep and narrow, cut 36 in. off
the 5 ft. section hose at the end of the feed hose and
remove one float. Then remove one 6 ft. hose (see
diagram), 1 swivel and 2 mender nuts. Re-measure
and cut hose according to the guides on pages 3-4.
