Step By Step Instructions
Checking for Square
Measure the track space, track length
and diagonals to make sure the tracks
form a perfect rectangle.
Lengths, widths and diagonal dimensions
must be equal to each other or the system
will not operate properly.
Cut the track at the mechanism end to
the proper length using a miter saw. It is
important to have square cuts on the track.
Note: Always wear safety goggles when
using powered equipment.
File the track ends on both sides of the pool
making sure to round all edges and remove
all burrs. This step is extremely important.
The cover can be damaged very easily by
metal burrs and this damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Attaching the Tracks to the Deck
Place the tracks into position on the deck in
the marked positions. Make sure that the
tracks run completely straight on both sides
of the pool. Drill through the pre-drilled track
holes into the deck. Drill at least 3” deep.
Move the tracks to the side to expose the
holes in the deck. Clean the dust from each
hole and tap plastic anchors (39) into each
one.
Place the track back over the holes in the
deck. Fasten the track screws (32) halfway
through the tracks into the plastic anchors.
The screws will be fastened completely
later in the installation.
