Product Overview

The Hammer-Head Service-30 Portable Pool Vacuum | SERVICE-30 is a professional-grade, battery-powered pool vacuum system built specifically for pool service technicians and commercial maintenance professionals who travel from pool to pool.

Featuring an extra-wide 30-inch injection-molded vacuum head, 60-foot floating power cord, heavy-duty service cart, and included truck/trailer mounting system, the Service-30 allows pool professionals to quickly remove leaves, sand, dirt, and heavy debris without connecting to the pool's pump or filtration system.

Unlike the Hammer-Head Resort series, the Service-30 includes the vehicle transport mount, making it ideal for daily pool routes.

Important Battery & Charger Notice

A 12V deep-cycle marine battery, battery charger, and standard pool pole are NOT included and must be purchased separately.

30-Inch Professional Vacuum Head

The extra-wide 30-inch injection-molded vacuum head provides increased cleaning coverage, allowing technicians to clean large pools more efficiently.

60-Foot Floating Power Cord

Service-30 vs. Resort-30

Although both models use a 30-inch head and 60-foot cord, they are intended for different applications.

Service-30

• 30" vacuum head
• 60' cord
• Vehicle mount included
• Designed for pool-to-pool route service
• Battery not included
• Charger not included
• Ships partially assembled

Resort-30

• 30" vacuum head
• 60' cord
• No vehicle mount
• Designed to remain at one facility
• Battery not included
• Battery charger included
• Ships fully assembled

For a professional service technician transporting the vacuum between customer pools, the SERVICE-30 is the correct configuration.

Installation & Operation

The Service-30 does not connect to the swimming pool's plumbing or filtration equipment.

For operation:

1. Install a compatible 12V deep-cycle marine battery in the service cart.
2. Fully charge the battery with a compatible charger.
3. Attach a standard pool pole to the vacuum head.
4. Submerge the vacuum head and motor completely.
5. Activate the Smart Switch.
6. Vacuum the pool as required.
7. Remove and clean the debris bag after service.
8. Recharge the battery as necessary between service days.

Always keep the vacuum motor submerged during normal operation.

Verify that you require:

• Hammer-Head SERVICE-30
