A backup valve (10) for use with a pool cleaner (100) coupled to a source of water (120) under pressure. The valve (10) includes a housing (12) having an inlet (20) and at least a first outlet (24) and a second outlet (26). The valve (10) further includes a timing apparatus (30, 40, 50) directing water from said inlet (20) to the first outlet (24) or the second outlet (26). In addition, an adjustable flow controller (102) over the second outlet (26) is provided to increase the flow speed of fluid exiting the outlet (26).
