Section 1 GENERAL OVERVIEW OF AN ENDLESS POOL FASTLANE
The Fastlane
®
swimming machine by Endless Pools is a hydraulically-powered system that creates a
smooth, adjustable-speed swim current in a conventional pool. The Fastlane has been fabricated with the
nest, most durable materials and designed to meet the most stringent safety standards including VGB
2008. The swim current produced is wider than your body and deeper than your stroke — far superior to
currents created by one or more jets. Two 3/8" (9,5mm) hydraulic hoses carrying a non-food grade, biode-
gradable vegetable oil run between the hydraulic Power Unit and the Fastlane Swim Unit, thus eliminating
the need for electricity poolside. When pumped at high pressure, this hydraulic uid creates a swim current
by turning the shaft of a submerged stainless steel hydraulic motor in the Fastlane Swim Unit, which in turn
rotates a 16" (40,6cm) diameter propeller. The Power Unit is activated using a 3-button radio frequency
remote control that can turn the unit on and off and adjust the speed. It is best if the Power Unit is within
25' (7,6m) of the Swim Unit to minimize pressure loss. An optional 6" (15,2cm) LED swim pace display is
available to monitor your speed.
Note: All of the 316L stainless steel screws provided for the assembly of this unit should be tightened to
the recommended 25 in-lbs of torque.

The Fastlane can be mounted one of two ways:
The Wall Mount Fastlane fastens to the wall of the pool using the bracket provided. Two 1 1/2" (38mm)
PVC pipes which serve as conduits for the hydraulic hoses run under the pool deck to a remotely located,
5-horsepower, hydraulic Power Unit, as shown in Figure 1.1.

The Deck Mount Fastlane fastens to the pool deck using the hanger bracket provided. The two hydraulic
lines then run back to the remotely located, 5-horspower, hydraulic Power Unit. The hydraulic hoses can
be run through a conduit or run aboveground, as shown in Figure 1.2.
