Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide a pool cleaner for use in a swimming pool or spa including a front wheel assembly and a scrubber assembly. The scrubber assembly is engagable with inner gear teeth of the front wheel assembly so that rotation of the front wheel assembly causes rotation of the scrubber assembly. The scrubber assembly includes at least one pinion gear and at least one end bracket rotatable about the at least one pinion gear to substantially lift the scrubber assembly over objects in the swimming pool or spa.
