Zusammenfassung:A water-driven scrubber device is used particularly in scrubbing wall and floor surfaces of a swimming pool or the like. The scrubber device comprises a compact housing adapted for connection to a supply of water under pressure and encasing a water-driven turbine wheel in combination with reduction gear elements for rotatively driving removable scrubber members, such as brushes. In one operational mode, a mounting yoke is carried by the housing for connection to a standard pool service utility pole to manipulate the scrubber device over pool surfaces, wherein the mounting yoke can be installed on the housing in either of two positions to permit or prevent pivoting motion relative to the housing, as desired. A retractable stabilizer wheel is also provided on the housing to facilitate accurate and smooth movement of the scrubber device over pool surfaces. In another operational mode, a portion of the housing defines a handle for easy grasping and direct manual movement of the scrubber device over pool surfaces.
