Swimables Hayward Style Cleaner Drive Gear Replacement | SW-61-007

The Swimables SW-61-007 is a replacement drive gear engineered for Hayward-style suction-side automatic pool cleaners including the Navigator, Pool Vac XL, AquaBug, and Diver Dave. The drive gear is a critical internal drivetrain component that receives rotational power from the cleaner's turbine and transfers it through the drivetrain to propel the cleaner's wheels across pool floors and walls. When the drive gear wears out, chips, or loses tooth engagement, the cleaner typically stalls, moves sluggishly, or stops advancing entirely — symptoms that are often mistaken for suction or hose issues. Replacing the SW-61-007 restores smooth, reliable mechanical power transfer and proper cleaner movement at a fraction of the cost of replacing the entire unit. Manufactured by Swimables from durable, pool-grade molded polymer designed to withstand the continuous rotational stress and chemical exposure of active pool cleaner operation.
