Go and get your friends again. You

should be at least three persons when

turning the hot tub over but, if possible,

more than three is even better. The

hot tub should be turned over in line

with the bottom joists, and without

getting any buckles or joints under it.

Place something on the ground as a

protection for the side boards, and a

couple of thick planks on the sides

in order to prevent the hot tub from

rolling sideways when it is standing

on its end. Tip the tub over on its end.

Place boards under the middle bottom

joists to avoid breaking the side boards

against the ground before the hot tub

is completely tipped over.

Take caution.

Stand at the side of the hot tub

when turning it over.

Do not stand where you run the risk

of getting the hot tub over you in case

it should fall down accidentally.

Foundation-laying

Choose a site with a firm and level

ground. Cover the ground with

flagstones, or something else, to

prevent grass from growing under the

hot tub. Air must be allowed to circulate

under the hot tub. The bottom joists

should not be in contact with the soil.

Each bottom joist should rest on three

points: one in the middle and one on

each end. Use, for instance, flagstones

or sleepers on wich you lay tar paper.

The hot tub should lean a couple of

millimetres towards the outlet.

Fit the fleur-

de-lis over the
metal hoops.
