STEP ONE: Preparing site area for BYOS slide system.
First, Level the hill substrate to the approximate final gra e.
TIP:
• The exit section shoul be supporte at the fiberglass
lan ing plate. (Fig. 1) The exit plate can simply rest
upon the substrate or be rille from the si e an
bolte to a bracket. (not supplie )
NOTE Build the support for the exit landing in
the correct orientation and at the correct
height prior to setting the fully assembled slide
in place. The exit point of the flume can be no
higher than 20” above the water.
STEP TWO: Flume assembly.
Starting with the exit section, assemble the sli e on the
groun , right si e up along actual pathway where the sli e will
resi e. (Be careful not to scratch the sli e) Attach the exit
section anchor support, followe by the next flume section in
the correct or er of the sli e pathway. To help i entify the
flume sections for the correct or er of assembly, there are
stickers attache at each flange en of each flume section.
For example, attach the letter A en of the exit section to the
letter A en of the next flume section of your custom BYOS
sli e. (Fig. 2 - sample only) Attach the anchor supports in
the specifie locations as you buil uphill an away from the
pool. Stickers are attache to the si e of the flange connection
that the anchor support will connect to.

TIPS:
• Be careful not to allow irt to get into the water elivery system on the entry section.
• Gasket en of each flume section goes uphill.
• The Entry Section Support bolts to the insi e of the Entry Section. There are
four 3/8” bolts, 2 on each si e.
• Anchor supports attach to the own slope si e of the flange. (Fig. 3)
• Each flange has 7 bolts. Five bolts are 3/8” (Fig. 3 positions 1, 4, 5, 6, 7) an
two bolts are 1/2” (Fig. 3 positions 2,3). The anchor supports (where require )
attach to the 1/2” bolts. Use Anti-Seize (in BYOS-101 Combo Kit) on all bolts.
• Insert bolts in this or er: bolt, flat washer, flanges, flat washer, lock washer, nut.
On flanges that require anchor supports insert bolts in this or er: bolt, flat
washer, flanges, anchor support, flat washer, lock washer, an nut.
• Insert an han tighten all the flange bolts. Then, utilizing a torque wrench,
tighten each nut to approximately half of the maximum 25 ft. lbs. Tighten the
bolts in an alternating fashion working from left to right starting with the center
bolt, then tighten the two 1/2” bolts, working your way up the flange (Fig. 3).
Repeat this same tightening process until the specifie 25 ft lbs is reache on
each bolt. Do not over tighten. Using greater force may fracture the fiberglass.
Tightening the bolts in this sequence is necessary to compress the gasket evenly.

will be approximately 4” below final concrete gra e for maximum anchor embe ment epth.
Minimum anchor embe ment epth will have the mi le rebar cross member approximately
4” below final concrete gra e. (See Fig. 13) NOTE: It is essential that the vertical portions
of the anchors are plumb.
Anchor supports shall be bon e . Refer to your local buil ing/electrical co e requirements.
With the exception of the exit section lan ing plate (Fig. 1), make sure that a minimum 3 inch
clearance is maintaine between any portion of the un ersi e of the sli e (inclu ing the
flanges) an the substrate. Base on the sli er’s weight an velocity the sli e can move
slightly both vertically an horizontally. If the sli e rubs upon the substrate ue to this motion
a wear spot an /or leak can evelop.
WARNING
T e above specified sizes for t e concrete piers represent a minimum
and s ould be increased due to local weat er, soil conditions, frost
line and/or local building codes. Anc or supports s all be bonded.
Refer to your local building/electrical code requirements.

STEP EIGHT: Final slide position.
It is essential that the sli e be in its correct horizontal an vertical position prior to pouring
concrete; an since the pool cannot be move , start checking position with the exit section
first. Starting with an then ensuring that the exit section is installe correctly is absolutely
necessary for a successful installation.
The exit section must meet the pool e ge at the correct elevation, in the correct orientation
an be level in both axes. (Fig. 15 & Fig. 16) When etermining level position for the exit
section please note that the exit section starts with a 15° up slope, which then makes a
gra ual transition to level point towar the exit point. Check for level position only as illustrate
below.
Utilize an angle fin er along the centerline of the flume ensure the flume is at the correct angle.
Check the angle along the centerline of the flume only. (Fig. 17) Do not check angle on up
or own we ge as the slope transitions through them.

When checking for the correct flume angle keep the below in min :
Fig. 18 Fig. 19
• Each sli e section is i entifie on the un ersi e.
• The exit section starts at 15° on the up slope en which then makes a gra ual
transition to level towar the exit point.
• The up an own we ges are 15°, but transition in slope an cannot be checke
for slope
• The curve sections are either 15° or 30°
• The 2.5’ an 5’ straight sections o not have a slope, but slope relative to the
section above such as: flat (0°), 15° or 30°
• The entry section seating area is almost flat, however, for proper rainage it
incorporates a slight ownhill slope which transitions to a full 15°. To ensure
correct placement of the entry section the trim line along the bottom e ge of
the outsi e wall was ma e level. If properly installe the bottom e ge of the outsi e
wall of the entry section will be level. (Fig. 18)
The si es of the flumes shoul be checke for level as well. The only place along the flume
where level positions can be etermine is at the flange/gasket locations. Place level across
the flume at the flume joint as illustrate . (Fig. 19) Check each flange location for level position,
a just as necessary.
