Important: Before you start to assemble the
High Riser make sure that the two
middle holes in the High Riser Base are
pointing inwards. These holes are closer to
the edge of the Base and are where the Third
Leg will attach. Attach the 4 Frame to the Base
using two 3/8”x1.5” Bolts, two 3/8’’ Washers
and two Heavy Nuts.
Ensure that the Retainer is bolted under the
Base on the outside.
The Retainers purpose is to secure the Frame
onto the High Riser Base and keep the Frame
centered.
Next attach the Third Leg to the Base using
two 3/8’’x1’’ Bolts and two 3/8’’ Washers.
Then bolt the Wheels onto the Base and Third
Leg. On the Third Leg Wheel with the short-
er stem place 2 of the thick 3/8” Washers on
the Wheel Shaft before putting it through the
Third Leg this will keep the wheel level when
the Tube is weighted.

Holes
Note: The Retainer must
be tted in this position to
stop the Frame from
moving and to help
disperse the weight of the
Tube.

VERY IMPORTANT:Do not over tighten the bolt on either end as this will make it
dicult to rotate the tube.
Reel Assembly
When attaching the Frame
to the High Riser Base put
the Bolts through the Re-
tainer then the Base and
nally the Frame.
Next use the Heavy Nuts
on the top to cover the
slot in the Frame. Doing
this will ensure that the
top Frame will not shift or
slip over the Bolt.
When you have joined and bolted the
tubing together and secured the Hub into the end of the Tube
using the TEK screws, next slide the end of the Hub into the
Black Bushing through the Frame. Place the Black
Washer on the end of the Hub and then
secure the Handle. On the other end of the unit place the
Knob in place of the Handle and secure with the 5/16”
stainless Washer and Bolt.
Very Important:
Do not overtighten the Bolts holding the Handle in place, or
the Bolt that holds the Knob at the other end of the unit. This
will make it dicult to turn the Handle.

Take the Anchor Bolt and put it
through the Spring and then the
Plastic Retainer, then put them
through one of the Anchor holes
in the High Riser Base. Repeat
these steps for both end units.
The Anchor Bolt assembly then
screws to the Concrete Anchor
when the system is in use.

For regular shaped pools, align the outside edge
of the tube parallel with the end of the pool.
For irregular shaped pools, the outside edge of
the tube should be a minimum of 3’ inside from
the end of the pool. Place the reel at the widest
point if that is possible for a better result.

Slug
Hit the center
slug with a
hammer &
center punch.
Drive the Concrete Anchor into the hole with a hammer. Ideally you would want
to leave the Anchor raised 1/16” above the pool deck, but if your hole is too
deep this might not happen as long as the Anchor Bolt can reach it, it will work.
To set the Concrete Anchor:
Hit the slug in the center of the Anchor (usually Red) with a hammer and center
punch, driving the slug down into the anchor forcing the legs out into concrete.
This is a friction t so if you haven’t hit the slug hard enough it could lift out of
the hole, if this happens simply set the Anchor again.
Using one of the two holes in the Frame as a
guide, make mark #1 on deck. With a 1/2” con-
crete drill bit, drill a 1 1/2” deep hole at mark #1.
Before moving to the otherside set this Concrete
Anchor and screw in the Anchor Bolt so that the
reel remains stationary. On the other side of the
roller unit, make mark #2 by using one of the two
holes in the Frame as a guide. With a 1/2” concrete
drill bit, drill a 1 1/2” deep hole at mark #2.
NOTE: Set one bolt at front of Frame on one end
and one at the rear of the Frame on the other
end.

FOR REGULAR SHAPED INGROUND POOLS
Attach the cut
cover to the roller with
the blue straps (See
Grommet detail). Ensure
the length of the strap
allows the cover to lay
at on pool, to prevent
wind from getting under
the cover.
To measure your straps
go from the top of the
assembled reel system
down to the water in
your pool and then add
two inches extra to
compensate for
evaporation.

Cover
For odd shaped pools, pinch the cover and attach the strap as
shown. Attach the cut cover to the roller with the blue straps (see
grommet detail) by folding the cover in a straight line as shown in
the diagrams. Ensure that the fold in the cover is straight.
Open the cover over the pool and set it into
position. Ensure that the seams on the cover
are parallel to the roller. (This may not be
possible with some types of covers).

When cutting the cover, allow a 1” wide

Strap
Open the cover over the pool and
set it into position. Ensure that
the end of the cover (where it
attaches to the roller) is square to
the roller.
When cutting the cover, allow a
1” wide border around the pool
edge to compensate for shrink-
age.
If the cover has seams, then the
seams should be parallel to the
roller. (This may not be possible
with some types of covers.)
Position the blue strap on the
cover. Cross cut through the
strapping and the cover. Ensure
that the hole in the strapping is at
least 1” from the end of the strap
and that the hole in the cover is
at least 2” from the end of the
cover. If possible fold the edge of
the cover over so that you put the
Grommet through two layers of
cover.
This will ensure that the Grommet
ts securley onto both the cover
and the strap, and will help to
prevent tearing.
Cover Strap
Wood
Insert the Female Grommet through your cut in the strapping and the
cover. Ensure that the material is completely pushed down on the shaft.
Insert the Male Grommet into Female Grommet. Once in place, hit with a
hammer until secure. (Caution - excessive force will break grommet).

the strap to prevent tearing.
