ROLLER INSTALLATION
- Position the roller as indicated in the diagram, making sure it is properly centred
with respect to the pool. It must be perfectly horizontal when installed (diagonals
dimensions).
- If there are rays, the roller should be pushed forward to the pool to enable the slats
to lower properly in its full width.
- Mark the position of the roller stand and polish or flatten the coping stone to obtain
a flat horizontal, even surface for placing the stands.
- Cut the coping stone (dimension X) to make it easier for the slats to be lowered over
the pool. Dimension X may vary according to the length of the pool; roller (roller
diameter on the roller shaft). (See page 05/18 table dim. X).
- After assembling the roller and making the adjustments, position the two roller
stands to the final position on the coping stone, using M10×75 Stainless Steel Bolts.
- Not to position it too behind swimming pool in order to avoid the friction of the
blades on the nose of curbstones when the cover is completely rolled up and this
particularly in the center of the roller
Note: If the skimmers are fixed along the length of the pool, we recommend
replacing their existing flanges with 2 mm thickness Stainless Steel flanges to easier
the slats way and avoid their blockage.

SLATS ASSEMBLY
* Immediately after taking the slats out of the packaging, they should be put into the
water to prevent any possible deformation.
*The number of slats has been determined according to the length of the pool,
though there are 4 extra slats.
* The first set of slats is easily recognisable as it has the straps to be fastening to the
roller. (Long length straps).
*Slide the strap under the fastening plates; tension it without pulling the slat out of the
water
*Centre the cover in the pool leaving enough space on both sides.
*Tighten the attachment plates with a screwdriver
* Bring closer the set of 7 slats to assemble them.
Note: Slats should go down from the front of the roller shaft.

SLATS DIRECTION
* Identify the upper side of the slats (curved side).
* Identify the slats direction:
- Wing to the stair
- Groove to the roller shaft
SLATS ASSEMBLING
Phase 1: Join the slats Phase 2: Join the wing to the groove
Phase 3: Move both slats down Phase 4: Move them up and carry on with it until
slats are perfectly engaged.

STAIR SETTING
1°) Put the stair slats on the water
2°) Assemble the slats until the stairs are completely assembled.
3°) Centre the big width slats in the pool (allowed dimension X: from both sides of the pool)
4°) Centre the stair using this slat.
To assemble the stair slats to the pool slats, proceed
as follows:
► Mark the position of both cap edges of the stair
slat on the wing of the long width slat.
► Make two notches of a cap and wing dimension on both
sides of the stair on the wing of the long width slat
without hurting the waterproof of the slat.
