Well if you go outside and your little guy is not moving around the pool. One thing that you want to make sure of is that it didn't try to eat something to big. Now Alright. It's got a hole for it here in the bottom and only a certain amount of things can go through it and if it's too big and a lot of times it will get stuck and not go through it. Weather it be a large piece of bark. Maybe a pebble that's too ambitious for it or a leaf or a twig that's just to big. One of the ways to clear it is this one right here is actually a little screw. I am going to use my hand drill here. To back it out the little guy comes right out here and there is also two more that you can take out there. Alright. Of course a hand held one is just as good. You will remove this bottom plate here which brings the bottom down a little bit closer to get down to vinyl to get all the debris. And here is a little throat that comes out here. And now all you have to do is either, yea blow or push the debris out. Make sure it's nice and clear. Make sure there is nothing else in there and then just go reversing the process and put it back into place.
