Instructions

TUBE ASSEMBLY
1. First loosen allen screws on assembled tube
and insert loose inner tube to other end.
2. Undo the allen screws fixed to the short brass
insert (item 19). Slide the brass insert rods
inside the channel under the outer tubes until
the holes line up and insert brass screws (item
20) to clamp the tube.
3. Fit steering wheel end frame (item 9) into tube
and secure with self tapping screws provided. It
is important that the channel lines up with the
gaps in the end frames (Failure to do so will
prevent plastic insert - item 25 - from sliding
into the tubes - item 16).
4. Fit non-steering wheel end frame (item 9) into
tube and secure with self-tap screws provided,
ensuring that the channel lines up as above.
5. lace the assembled reel system in a position
square to the pool where it will be used.
6. The reel system tubes should be adjusted to
the required size of the pool. Normally the tube
length should be 2ʼ (0.6m) longer than the pool
width. This reel is only suitable for a maximum
cover width of 17ʼ(5.18m). (Do not exceed maximum tube extension, this is marked
on the inner tubes - item 16 - by a blue line).
7. Fit straps by inserting the plastic slide bars into the channels depending on how
many are required. Straps should be at approximately 2ʼ - 3ʼ (0.6m - 0.9m)
spacings starting from the middle of the reel system.
8. Fit locking bar (item 14/15) into channel and tighten. This prevents the tube from
rotating when not in use.
9. You are now ready to attach the straps to the cover.
COVER ATTACHMENT
1. With the cover cut to the size of the pool as required pull the cover
out of the water towards the reel system until the two meet.
2. Start from the middle of the cover with the first strap point and
work towards the outside positioning straps at distances no more
than 3ʼ (0.9m) apart. (Ideal strap spacing 2ʼ - 3ʼ (0.6m - 0.9m).
3. The two outside straps should be 1.5” (40mm) in from the edge
of the cover.
4. Attach long straps to plastic bar (item 25) as diagram and fit
to cover.
5. Adjust strap length for even tension and tighten bolts
(items 30/31/32) on cover.
6. Be sure strap lengths allow the cover to be in complete
contact with the water surface when on the pool.
NOTE
The reel is best operated as close to the pool edge as possible
to avoid the cover rubbing on the copings or pool surround.
This can cause damage to the underside of the cover if the reel
is not positioned correctly.
Both reel and cover should be washed down on a regular basis
with fresh tap water to stop build up of chemical deposits.
To aid pulling the cover on and off the pool we recommend you fit a Plastica
D.I.Y. leading edge, which is available through your local supplier.
