IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. Installation of pool cover must begin at any areas with cut-outs or zero tolerance areas
(such as at cable-construction). When there are several areas like this, start at most
complicated of these areas.
2. This application of cable is for a standard straight wall installation. A custom cable
area may require special installation and hardware. If you have any questions call
your Anchor Representative to assist you.
Install cable hardware at the same level as the rest of the cover!
