B Reel System Placement 

Note

: Make certain there is a flat surface on the top 

rail and that there is no obstruction under top rail to 

prevent mounting the base mount. 

Round Pool

Install reel system crossing center of your pool. 

Oval 

Pool

: Install reel system near the end of your pool 

before radius.

C Determining Pole Length

A.  Pole Sections 1 and 3 should always equal and  

 

never exceed the following: Item #2827 = 5 ft 10 in. /  

  Item #2828 = 7 ft 8 in.

B.  If your pool is less than 13 ft wide, cut Section 2  

  with a hacksaw to shorten.

 

1.  Measure your pool’s width from the inside edge of  

   

pool’s top rails.

  2.  Place Section 2 inside Sections 1 and 3. Slide  

   

Sections 1 and 3 out to the desired total pole  

   length. 

Note: Total pole length is usually the  

   

pool width + 9 in.

C. Place reel and base mounts onto top rail. This  

  verifies the tubing is wide enough. 

D Pole Assembly

1.  To fasten the poles, drill self-tapping screws in along  

  the groove line 3 in. in from right end of Section 1  

  through Section 2 (see illustration above). 

2.  Rotate poles 120º, repeat step 1.

3.  Rotate poles another 120º, repeat step 1 again. 

4.  To fasten Sections 2 and 3 together, follow pole  

  assembly instructions 1 through 3.

 

Note: You will use (6) total 1-1/2 in. self-tapping  

  screws to secure pole set together.

E Installing Base Mount onto Pool Railing

1.  Place each Base Mount onto top rail.

2.  Rail attachments should be mounted so that the  

  Base Mount can slide in toward your pool. This  

  will keep reel system more secure.

3. Drill 3 screws per side into rail attachments. 

 

  Attachments fit tightly over the Base Mount. 

F Prepare and Drill Holes Equally Spaced

1.  Measure 8 in. in from the hubs towards the center  

  of the poles on both sides of tubing. Mark poles  

  with a marker. 

2.  Mark 3 more equally spaced marks on the pole  

  assembly in a straight line.

3.  Drill in one end of each (5) Pre-perforated Fabric  

  Straps with 1-1/2 in. SS Screws, using markings as  

  a guide. Use Strap end with one pre-perforated hole.
