A hose can be plunged into the vacuum plate that hooks into a pool floor vacuum head. this head is connected to an aluminum pole or handle after that you use it the same as a normal vacuum cleaner. A pool shop will be able to advise you on the correct choice of hard ware. RB
To turn on a pool vacuum, first connect the vacuum head to the telescopic pole and attach the hose to the vacuum head. Then, lower the vacuum into the pool and connect the other end of the hose to the skimmer or designated suction port. Finally, turn on the pool pump to start the vacuuming process.
