COVERING THE POOL
1 Unlock the switch cover. Toggle the switch to the “cover” position. It takes a second for the gear to engage the rope take-up reels. Safety covers are
required to have a momentary power switch that requires constant pressure to operate the motor. This keeps the operator in complete control of
the mechanism.
(OLD THE SWITCH IN THE hCOVERv POSITION UNTIL THE COVER EXTENDS TO THE POSITION REQUIRED FOR YOUR POOL COVER MODEL
A. For “Underguide” systems, where guides are mounted under the pool coping, lightly bump the leading edge against the end of the pool.
Do not continue to force the cover closed after it touches the coping.
" &OR h4OPGUIDEv SYSTEMS WHERE THE GUIDES ARE MOUNTED ON TOP OF OR IN THE DECK THE COVER SHOULD EXTEND OVER THE POOL BUT STOP SEVERAL INCHES SHORT OF
reaching the end pulley housings at the end of the guides. Make sure the leading edge of the pool cover clears the top surface of the deck to prevent
damage to the bottom of the leading edge or its fabric cover.
3 Release the switch when you have reached the proper closed position discussed above. Close the switch lid, lock it, and remove the key.
4 Place the pump on the cover.
Note: If the cover hesitates or stops before it reaches the end of the pool, you should immediately release the switch and investigate the problem. Sometimes
dirt, debris, or obstacles like towels or hoses can stop the cover. Remove the obstruction and continue covering the pool. If, after investigation, you cannot find
a reason for the hesitation, you should reverse the direction of the cover a foot or two and then retry to cover the pool. If the same thing occurs, immediately
release the switch and call your SwimWise distributor. Continuing to operate the cover can cause damage not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
