The last one In retrospect dumping the salt OUT OF the bags into wheel
barrow ( clean) spreading around the pool with shovel might of been a better
idea, to bad I didn't think of that.

I had almost the exact same symptoms this year when I started my pool
up, with the aquabug only cleaning part of the pool and the air in the
filter housing. In my case, it was indeed air leaking through the pipe
connections. I disassembled the connections between my skimmer and
pump, cleaned the gaskets, and reassembled everything tightly with
some teflon tape around the screw connections. Afterwards the flow with
aquabug attached, while still less than with the skimmer, is much
greater and doesn't have any air in it. My aquabug is moving noticably
faster and producing greater suction.

I'm having a problem with the cone gears, which appear to easily get stuck.
I took it to a local pool shop who said they dismantled it and found a lot
of hair inside, which they cleaned out. The cone gear tube at the top
still didn't move freely and, when I asked about it, the repairer said
that it didn't matter. I don't think he's right. I'd like to dismantle
the bug myself, but I can't find how to do it. Has anyone done it and
could describe how, or know of a repair manual that gives instructions?
