LOCATE CENTER ANCHORS
2. LOCATE CENTER ANCHORS:
Before setting ANY anchors, check to see if there is a CENTER
WEB to be located at the center of the pool’s length. Sometimes,
diving boards or other obstructions prevent the use of a CENTER
WEB at the exact center of the length of the pool cover. In these
cases, there are TWO CENTER WEBS that run parallel and on
either side of the exact center of the pool’s length. Together, they
will provide what you need to correctly position the cover so that
there is approximately 15” of consistent overlap.
Having located the CENTERED WEBS, you will now begin drilling
and setting anchors at opposite ends of the pool, directly in line with
the CENTERED WEBS.
PLEASE NOTE:
This cover is meant to be tensioned and
SUSPENDED ABOVE the water level.
It is not designed to rest on the water.
Special consideration should be given to covers suspended above
the water in geographic areas where snow and ice can build up. It
is recommended that the “winterized” pool water be no lower than
15” below the deck itself (just below the skimmers). In the event
of excessive snow/ice accumulation, the water will act as a support
until such time as the snow/ice has been removed. Cover and/or
coping damage can result if the water level is lower than what is
recommended above, thus voiding the cover’s warranty.
ATTACHING SPRINGS
STEP A:
Slide spring skids over the standard steel springs
to protect the deck. (See “PARTS” on previous page.)
STEP B:
Feed the web flat up through the spring end and
then up through the sliding square “keeper buckle” from
the bottom side.
STEP C:
Loop the web around the “keeper buckle” and
back down through the spring end as shown.
STEP D:
Bring the end out on top of the web that leads
back to the pool cover. Pull the loose end of the web to
tighten.
