Hayward AquaBug Upper Middle Body Overview!

Hello ePoolSupply supporters and fellow blog enthusiasts. Back with you all again to go over a particular suction side cleaner but more importantly one of its many parts. The cleaner I am referring to is the Hayward Penguin and the part we are going to go over is the Upper Middle Body (part # AXV060WH). This part is vital to cleaners’ success rate of pulling multiple forms of dirt and debris from the bottom surface of your pool. It also works with other surrounding parts to make sure the AquaBug packs a powerful cleaning punch.

What is the Purpose of the Upper Middle Body?

The upper middle body is the main housing unit for a few different parts that all work together creating the turning power for these suction cleaners. The parts that are housed in this unit are the cone gear, intermediate gear, intermediate gear shaft, spindle gear screw, spindle gear, spindle gear bushing, and finally the cone gear bushing. This body also acts as a protective cover for these parts ensuring no outside influence can disrupt them or wear on them as the suction cleaner operates.

Over time these parts will deteriorate from use and the elements that present themselves outside daily or they may even come loose. It is always best to check not only these parts but all the other wearable parts periodically for any wear or damage that can directly affect the way the Penguin operates.

In conclusion, Hayward makes a great line of products and when it comes to the basic rules for taking care of your pool, keeping it clean is most often the first thing that comes to your mind. Clean pools are inviting for the likes of all. Hayward’s reliable pool cleaners provide pool owners with peace of mind and total relaxation. Cleaners vacuum and scrub the floor and coves of the pool so you don’t have to (although you still need to brush the walls from time to time).
