This package is perfect for pool builders, resorts, condominiums, apartment managers, campgrounds, or pool technicians who need fast, professional results. This is no ordinary pool vacuum.

REMORA™ IS portable

The REMORA™ battery pack is fitted with a hook and loop belt/strap that can be worn on the hip, over the shoulder, or across your body. (We do not recommend leaving the battery pack on the pool deck while you vacuum, as it could be dragged into the pool and will damage the battery pack). The battery pack features a safe Power-Sonic® LiFeP04 lithium battery and the 2-speed Hammer-Head® Smart-Switch™, which features an automatic safety shutoff if the propeller is obstructed or if the motor is running out of the water for more than a minute. Download the Power-Sonic® App to monitor real-time battery health and charge level from your smart device, and charge back up with the included NOCO® Genius2™ battery charger.

HAMMER-HEAD® REMORA™ PORTABLE POOL VAC QUICK-START GUIDE

Step 1 - USING THE APP (Only with models that are equipped with a Power-Sonic battery).

Download the free Power-Sonic® app to your smart device. It will connect to the battery in your REMORA™ battery pack and monitor the state of charge (SOC). On the second pane (page) of the app, you’ll be able to see the current condition of your battery, even as you use it. See the Power-Sonic® guide for instructions on using the app. Click here to download the guide.

Step 2 - CHARGING THE HAMMER-HEAD® REMORA™ BATTERY

PLEASE NOTE: Recent changes to the REMORA battery charger may mean that your cleaner kit does not include the NOCO® G2™ charger and charge port. We have recently discontinued use of the NOCO® G2™ charger and charging port in favor of a streamlined charger and direct charging connection.
Your REMORA™ pool cleaner is equipped with a 12 volt Power-Sonic® LiFeP04 Lithium ION Bluetooth battery. The battery is thermally protected and completely sealed. No maintenance other than charging is required.

For more information about your Power-Sonic® battery, click here.

You can charge your battery at any time, but do not allow the battery to discharge to 0% completely before recharging, as the app and the charger may not be able to detect the battery at all if it is completely dead. Plug the charger into a wall outlet, then connect the male end of the charger to the REMORA™ battery case as shown (if using the NOCO® G2™ charger). Using the MODE button, set the charger to LITHIUM. NOTE: You must set the charger to the LITHIUM setting each time you charge your battery. Do not charge the battery pack with the REMORA™ power cord plug inserted into the battery pack. If you are using the Dakota-Lithium charger, then your connection will be directly to the battery with clips as indicated in the manual you received with your REMORA™ cleaner..
The charger will automatically recharge the battery to 100% capacity and then maintain it until the next use. The REMORA™ battery pack may be charged whenever a charge is needed, or may be charged at any time to top off the battery power. Do not charge the battery with any other charger than the one that is provided or specified for this unit.

IMPORTANT: Do not operate your REMORA™ cleaner while it is connected into the charger.

NOTE: Due to the safety features in both your battery's BMS (Battery Management System), the Smart Switch™, and the NOCO® G2™ charger, an excess voltage error may occur during charging. The battery and charging system is safe, and the error does not indicate anything is damaged. The charger will go back to its regular charging cycle after some time. If it does not correct itself or you would like to restart the cycle manually, simply unplug the charger from the battery case, wait 10 seconds and then plug it back in. If the Power-Sonic® app does not recognize your battery, recharge the battery and try again.

Step 3 - PLUGGING IN THE HAMMER-HEAD® REMORA™

Your REMORA™ power cord must be aligned properly to fit into the battery box receptacle. The arrow on the silver release tab should align with the top right corner of the receptacle flange as shown below. Push the cord plug in until it clicks. To release the plug, press down on the silver arrow. Do not twist the plug end when inserting it into or removing it from the plug receptacle. Do not remove the plug without pressing the release tab. Please note: Recent changes to the plug design of the REMORA™ may mean that your battery pack and power cord have a different connection. Please refer to the manual that was included with your cleaner.

Step 4 - USING THE HAMMER-HEAD® SMART SWITCH™ ON YOUR REMORA™ BATTERY PACK

The REMORA™ power pack is equipped with a Smart Switch™ that monitors the power that is delivered to the motor. The Smart Switch™ has two speed settings and an automatic shutoff after a minute when the the vacuum is running out of the water. It will also display a flashing red light if the motor is obstructed or a flashing blue and red light if it detects a short circuit in the wiring. The switch can detect changes in resistance on the propeller. If the prop becomes jammed and cannot spin, the motor will quickly reverse itself three times to clear the jam. If it cannot clear the jam and spin freely, the switch will shut down the motor and you will see a red flashing light. Feeling a shudder or vibration from the vacuum head during vacuuming is normal, and will indicate that the Smart Switch™ is auto-reversing the motor to clear an obstruction, or is reacting to an increase in debris load on the propeller. Read more about switch functions below. Please note: The Smart Switch™ is not waterproof and can be damaged if submerged or exposed to large amounts of water.

Understanding your Smart Switch™

• For full power, click the switch once to the on position A solid green light indicates that the motor is running at its fastest speed.

• To reduce the speed (saving battery power), quickly click the switch on-off-on. A flashing green light will let you know the motor is at the lower speed.

• A flashing red light indicates that the motor is obstructed in some way and has shut down for safety. Turn the switch off, remove the cleaner from the water, remove the debris bag, and inspect the propeller for anything that may be holding it back (a stick, rock, seed, pool toy, or a buildup of plant debris). Once you have cleared the obstruction, keep your hands, fingers, hair, and clothing accessories clear of the propeller and turn the switch on again.

• A flashing red and blue light indicates that there is a wiring fault with the REMORA™. Put the switch in the off position, and unplug the power cord from the battery pack. Contact HAMMER-HEAD® for support at 866-887-7983.

Step 5 - WEARING THE HAMMER-HEAD® REMORA™ BATTERY PACK

The REMORA™ battery pack can be worn over the shoulder or around the waist while you vacuum your pool, making the REMORA™ completely portable. DO NOT use the REMORA™ without wearing the battery pack. Placing the battery pack on the pool deck while vacuuming could lead to the battery pack being pulled or dragged into the water, which will damage the unit. THE BATTERY PACK IS NOT WATERPROOF AND IS NOT DESIGNED TO BE SUBMERGED. BATTERY PACK SUBMERSION OR WATER DAMAGE VOIDS ALL WARRANTY CLAIMS.

CAUTION: Carry the vacuum head by the attached carrying handle only. Make sure to disconnect the power cord after vacuuming and when walking and carrying the REMORA™ vacuum kit. Do not carry the vacuum head with your hands or fingers or inside vacuum head housing.

Step 6 - VACUUMING and HAMMER-HEAD® BAG USE

The REMORA™ is a commercial-quality pool vacuum designed for the homeowner or pool technician that needs complete portability. The vacuum head is simple to operate and easy to maintain. Please visit hammerheadvac.com/learn and watch these videos from our guide series: #4 BAGS, #5 SWITCH, and #6 PROPELLER for instructions for basic Hammer-Head vacuum use.

HAMMER-HEAD® debris bags are made by hand here in the USA from chemical resistant materials and feature a no-slip cleat/string attachment and color-coded tags for quick identification. They are reusable and with proper care will provide many months of professional service. Bags should be stored clean and dry, and you should avoid dragging or scuffing them on the pool bottom, the pool deck, coping or any other rough surface.

Please refer to the bag clip guide shown here for the best technique when using the no-slip HAMMER-HEAD® Shark Cleat™.

To clean a debris bag, simply turn it inside out, empty the contents, and rinse with a garden hose. REMORA™ is compatible with all HAMMER-HEAD® debris bags.
