You can get one here. If you click on the description, there is a video in there showing it's construction and how it works. It's made in Germany and designed for that skimmer. The lid is PVC just like the one on your skimmer. You will not find a better self cleaning head anywhere. They have a dual wiper system that wipes the neck, lid and lid ring and use a high speed gear driven motor. They also draw water up from inside the skimmer body and squirt it on the inside of the neck and lid for a wet scrubbing. The underside of the lid where the wiper attaches is Cone shaped and actually improves skimmer performance by pushing the foam outwards towards the top edge of the neck.
I run mine once a day for 15 seconds and my neck is always clean.
