G Attach Solar Cover to Reel
1. Your Solar Cover should be in the pool and trimmed
to the inside of your pool’s top rail. Make a mark
with marker at each edge of the cover directly
below tube.
2. Remove cover from pool and lay at on ground.
Draw a straight line between the two marks on
the cover.
3. Roll cover up until you reach your drawn line and
measure in 8 in. from each side of cover and place
a cross mark on the line.
4. Next, take the measurement used between the rst
pole marks and equally space the 3 remaining
marks down the line to the second 8 in. measurement.
H Attach Nylon Plates & Fabric Straps to
Solar Cover
1. Start with the rst 8 in. mark from the folded edge
of the cover.
2. Attach a Nylon Plate to the cover on the drawn
line by pulling a double thickness of the cover into
the Nylon Plate (shown in illustration A).
3. Take a second Nylon Plate and place directly
underneath the rst Nylon Plate. Use a sharp
instrument (such as a Philips screwdriver) and
punch holes through the rst Nylon Plate, then
the cover, ending with the second Nylon Plate.
Make certain that the holes are clean of excess
cover material.
4. Insert the Nylon Bolts through the Nylon Plate,
then through an open hole of a corresponding
Fabric Strap which is already attached to the Pole,
then the cover, and nish with the other Nylon
Plate. Secure with Nylon Nuts (see illustration B).
5. Continue attaching the remaining 4 sets of Nylon
Plates and Straps to your Solar Cover at each mark
shown in step G (above).
6. The last set of plates and last strap should be 8 in.
from the opposite edge of the cover (see illustration C).
I Operating Instructions
1. After Reel System is assembled on your pool,
slowly turn wheel clockwise; the cover will be lifted
up and over the pole. Should either cover edge
be hampered by the top rail, straighten it out so that
the cover remains smooth and wrinkle-free during
roll-up. Make certain the cover is removed from the
pool uniformly onto pole (see diagram below).
2. When the cover is completely rolled up on the pole,
lift the wheel, pole and yoke and rotate system to
any desired location.
3. If desired, reel system may now be removed from
top rail and stored.
J Return Reel System to Pool
1. Place Reel System back onto pool by sliding base
units into rail attachments, then sliding pole with
Solar Cover into base units.
2. Turn Wheel counter clockwise until cover makes
contact with the pool.
3.
Separate the two edges of the cover from each other.
4. Grip cover edge and walk slowly down the pool to
the end.
5. Roll out 5-8 feet of cover at a time.
6. Now walk the cover down to the end of the pool.
7. Repeat procedure for second part of cover.
Helpful Hints
1. Remove Reel System at the end of each season.
2. Clean Wheels, Hubs, Yokes, Bearings, and Bases with
warm soapy water.
Storage
1. Always store the Reel System in a safe place.
