    Great vid... I noticed my Polaris usually lasts around 6-8 solid years of regular use, sometimes longer. At that point, I just buy an entire new one. Well worth every penny since time is money, and I do not have time to vacuum my pool. Cheers

      Thanks, partner! We are about to do a vid of a total Polaris rebuild. It is pretty straightforward and for $100 you can usually get a few more years of solid life out of them.

    Good afternoon, thank you your video. I changed around the tires as in your video but the sweep isn’t doing much? Thoughts

      Howdy, partner! If the sweep isn't doing much, I would recommend first inspecting the tail end of the sweep to ensure it still has a cap attached (should have a small hole). If the tail is in good shape, there is a silver bolt on the outside of the Polaris 280 upper housing. You should be able to finger adjust this bolt. Tightening/loosening will allow more or less water to flow from the tail. Good luck and please let us know how it goes!

    Hi Mr. Greg. Facing the exact issue you showed, but my issue started AFTER I installed new tire treads. All wheels turning, but the back wheel doesn't touch the ground....like in your video the front makes contact and rear just floating up 6 inches. Keeps going round and round and won't climb much anymore. Just so I can understand what you showed, I don't get why a bad tread would keep the rear wheel from going down? I don't get the logic of why that would be. And being that I have new wheel treads and all turning tells me something else wrong. Do I maybe need to adjust the rear jet a little to force it down more in the rear, or maybe close pressure to tail to put more pressure in rear jet? Any advice appreciated. Thanks.

      Howdy partner! Try adjusting the oval float buoy on the back. You can pull it out or push it in to change leveling. Also, make sure that tail pressure is adequate to slowly wag tail but not too strong to whip it. That is adjusted with the silver bolt. Hope this helps!
