Anchor Installation: Core-drill Retro-t
(Typical Concrete Pool Deck Installation)
Your deck MUST have:
• Minimum footing size: 4’ - 0” x 4’ - 0” x 10” thick.
• Minimum concrete strength: 2500 psi
• Reinforcement: #5 rebar @ 10” on center (O.C.)
1. Mark the center of the anchor location on your deck using the guidelines on page 4. Also
mark the center for the xing anchor 3 1/2” from the center anchor.
2. Using a 3” diameter core-drill bit, drill a 3” diameter hole at the anchor location. Make sure
to keep the bit square to the deck. Drill straight down to a depth of at least 6”. Then use a 1
1/2” drill bit for the xing anchor, drilling down at least 4”
NOTE: Create a depth marker on the drill bit with black electrical tape to make sure you drill to the right depth.
If you drill through the deck you may need to use the saw-cut installation instructions.
3. Remove plug and clean out the holes with a wire brush. Insert an air nozzle to the bottom
of the hole. Use a pump or compressed air to blow out the hole. A heat-gun may be helpful
in drying out the hole.

TOOLS REQUIRED:
CORE DRILL MARKING PEN
3” CORE DRILL BIT AIR NOZZLE & PUMP/COMP.
1 1/2” CORE DRILL BIT HEAT GUN (OPTIONAL)
EPOXY (ANCHOR ADHESIVE)* MASKING TAPE
*Use HILTI RE-500-SD adhesive anchor or SIMPSON SET-XP
anchor adhesive or equivalant.
NOTE: Your local codes may require one or more permits. Check with your local building codes for the proper
permit requirements.

Anchor Installation: Core-drill Retro- t (CONTINUED)
4. Place the anchor in the hole and ‘dry-t’ it rst to make sure the anchor will be ush and
plumb with the nished deck surface when installed. Adjust the hole as needed.
NOTE: Pool decks with pavers or thick tiles may require other anchor options. Contact Aqua Creek Products.
5. Inject epoxy adhesive into each hole starting at the bottom until the hole is 1/3 to 1/2 full.
NOTE: We recommend using masking tape around the top of the anchors so that no epoxy gets inside the anchors.
7. Let the epoxy cure for at least 24 hours before installing the lift (or where applicable
according to the epoxy manufacturers’ instructions).
6. Install the anchor into the epoxy lled hole by pushing down and twisting back and
forth to evenly distribute the epoxy around the anchor. Push down until it is ush with the
nished deck surface. Clean off any excess epoxy. Adjust the anchor as needed to make
sure it is ush and plumb with the deck surface. This should be done during the adhesives’
specied ‘gel time’(see epoxy manufacturers’ instructions).

Anchor Installation:
Saw-cut Retro- t/New construction
1. Mask the bottom hole of the anchor sleeve to prevent concrete from seeping in.
2. Install rebar in the 4’-6” x 4’-6” section of the deck that will be thickened to 10”. SEE
FIGURES B & C.
3. Set the bronze anchor sleeve in place. Make sure the center of the anchor sleeve
is no more than 44”from the pool’s edge. Set the xing anchor insert 3 1/2” from the
center of the anchor sleeve. Fixing anchor may be located anywhere on the deck, as
long as it is 3 1/2” from the center of the anchor sleeve. SEE FIGURE B.
4. Bond the anchor sleeve according to your local code requirements by using the
bonding lug and bonding screw on the side of the anchor sleeve.
5. Pour your concrete and nish the pool deck surface.
6. Once the concrete has cured, your lift is ready to be mounted into the anchor sleeve.

Mighty 600 Assembly Instructions
WARNING: NEVER LIFT THE MAIN ASSEMBLY
USING THE LINEAR ACTUATOR AS A HANDLE! USE
AT LEAST TWO PEOPLE TO LIFT.
1. Lift the Mighty 600 MAIN ASSEMBLY from the shipping container. Insert the 1.9” [48mm] post
of the MAIN ASSEMBLY into the deck anchor (FIGURE A, PAGE 6). Ease the MAIN ASSEMBLY down
until it rests on the deck surface. Rotate the base until the xing anchor hole lines up with the
xing anchor. Install the 1/2” x 1 1/2” hex bolt and washer to hold down the lift. Tighten the bolt.
2. Remove all of the shipping materials from the lift. Slide the CHAIR AND CHAIR ARM ASSEMBLY
up through the top casing of the MAIN ASSEMBLY and connect using the supplied 5/16” hex bolts,
washers and nylock nuts. For standard pool conguration the CHAIR ARM will be connected
at the top two holes. However, the chair arm can be adjusted up to 6 inches higher, in 2 inch
increments, if there is a need for it. NEVER USE THE LIFT WITHOUT BOTH HEX BOLTS INSTALLED!

Basic Troubleshooting
Problem: The lift won’t move.
Solution:
Check the ends of the cords for corrosion or
damage. The cord plugs should be recessed
into the outlet. You should feel them pop into
place when they are correctly inserted.
1. Make sure the cords are properly plugged in:
NOT Properly Inserted:
The cord plug is ush with
or sticking out of the outlet
Properly Inserted:
The cord plug is recessed
into the outlet
2. Check the contact points:
Make sure the contact point of the control box
and the battery are not damaged or corroded.
If there is corrosion clean with Scotch-BriteTM
pad. Put some dielectric grease on the contact
points before reattaching the battery.
Note: If you feel your lift is malfunctioning due to a faulty battery
or connections, contact Aqua Creek Products for a testing kit.

Battery Test Cable Instructions
WARNING! DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DIRECTLY PROBE THE BATTERY CONNECTOR TO TEST VOLTAGE.
THIS MAY CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE BATTERY! USE THE SUPPLIED BATTERY TEST CABLE
ONLY FOR CHECKING THE BATTERY VOLTAGE!
The Aqua Creek 24V battery has a cable and connector for connecting to the control box or to the
battery charger. The battery connector is not suitable to check the battery voltage, as it is very hard
to probe the connector without shorting-out the battery, which will cause damage. For this reason, a
separate battery test cable is provided. To safely check the battery voltage, use a voltmeter or multi-
meter with standard test probes, and insert the probes into the test cable as shown below.
