Claim:
A cleaning tool for cleaning a surface submerged in a fluid, comprising: a cleaning utensil having a housing and a handle; a deflector vane having a first side which defines a deflector surface and a second side which extends on an opposite side of said deflector vane from said deflector surface, wherein said deflector vane is pivotally mounted to said housing of said cleaning utensil, such that said deflector vane will pivot from a first position to a second position relative to said housing in response to whether said cleaning tool is moving relative to a first direction and a second direction, respectively, within the fluid; said deflector vane adapted such that when said deflector vane moves in said first direction along the submerged surface, said deflector surface pushes the fluid generally away from the submerged surface, which presses said cleaning utensil against the submerged surface; an adjustment member adapted for selectively disposing relative to said deflector vane to determine said first position relative to said housing in which said deflector vane is disposed when said cleaning tool is traveling in the first direction within the fluid; two ribs extending from said second side of said deflector vane, said two ribs having at least two pair of opposed holes in respective ones of said two ribs; and said adjustment member including a brace having two tabs which outwardly extend from opposite sides of said brace, wherein said two tabs of said brace are selectively disposed one of said two pair of opposed holes to selectively dispose said brace relative to said deflector vane.
