Hello everyone,

After tweaking and tuning around my Vertex Alpha 170, it's been pulling waste pretty well. However, after only a few days, there seem to be deposit (waste build-up) at the end of the collection cup. Once this happened, the skimmer doesn't seem to pull more waste.

Then I did a little more research, and I found the Vertex Vectra Engine Universal Cleaner Unit. This seems to clean up the collection cup.

Has anyone used this? I wonder if it's worth it.

Thanks
