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.
