Quick overview

  • Genuine Polaris part The factory 39-120 chain tensioner kit, not an aftermarket copy.
  • For the 3900 Sport Listed for the Polaris 3900 Sport pool cleaner.

  • Sold as a kit Supplied as the tensioner kit rather than as loose pieces.
  • Check it during a rebuild Chain tension is one of the first things to go on a high hour cleaner, so it is worth inspecting whenever the belly is open.

Product details

This is the genuine Polaris chain tensioner kit, part number 39-120, for the 3900 Sport pool cleaner.

What the tensioner does

The 3900 drives its wheels through a chain, and the tensioner keeps the slack out of that chain. Once it wears, the chain can skip a tooth under load. The cleaner then loses drive on one side, wanders away from its pattern, or gives up on wall climbs it used to manage. Replacing the tensioner is the fix, and it is usually done at the same time as any other drive train work.

Part numbers

The kit is listed as Polaris 39-120, and the product data also notes 393-121 molded into the sprocket. Both numbers are recorded here so you can match whichever one is on the parts you took out.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

Which cleaner is this for?
The Polaris 3900 Sport.
Is this a genuine Polaris part?
Yes. It is the Polaris OEM chain tensioner kit, part number 39-120.
Why does the part number 393-121 appear too?
The product data lists 39-120 as the part number and notes 393-121 molded into the sprocket. Both readings are carried here rather than one being dropped.
What goes wrong when the tensioner wears?
A slack chain skips or jumps under load, so the cleaner loses drive, wanders off its pattern or stops climbing walls the way it used to.
