Default Kreepy Krauly doesn't work right

Our Kreepy Krauly doesn't seem to be getting the job done; I took a good
look at it underwater and the problem seems to be that it is not

positioned
flush with the pool surface ... one side of the circular "thingy" []
touches the bottom and the other is elevated maybe 3-5 inches ... and it's
not picking up the dirt even though there's plenty of suction on the line
... also, it used to climb up and down the walls but doesn't anymore


First thing to check is whether the large flexible
rubber skirt is seated correctly at the business
end of the hard plastic foot pad. Ours once
slipped out of its groove, but was no more difficult
to refit than in annual assembly.
Second thing to check is whether a twig has
entered the main tube and jammed any of
the valves.
