are properly positioned and square on the spa.
Step #2
Using the #10 x 1-1/2” Mounting Screws, attach the Left and Right Mounting Brackets to
the appropriate sides of the spa (See Fig. 1). Note: the brackets can be mounted directly
on the top rail of the spa or to the sidewall of the spa. Caution: to prevent splitting of
wood cabinets, pre-drill holes with a 1/16” drill bit.
Step #4
Starting with the left side rst, lay the long end of the Support Arms on the top of the
cover, lying parallel to the spa cover hinge about 1/2” away. Slide the U-shaped

underside of the cover hinge (See Fig. 3) Note: Do not insert the U-shaped retainer
clip in between the seams of the spa cover. With the left Support Arm lying on the
cover, slide the Center Coupler piece over the long end of the left Support Arm. Next,
slide the long end of the right Support Arm into the center coupler and slide the
U-shaped retainere clip between the two cover halves.

the cover hinge and centered on the spa), use the #10 X 5/8”self tapping screws to
fasten the Support Arms to the Pivot Arms and the Center Coupler to teh Support Arms

at a horizontal angle with the screw head facing the back of the spa.
