INTRODUCTION
THE TYPHOON SLIDE IS DESIGNED AND MANUFACTURED FOR INSTALLATION AND USE ON
INGROUND SWIMMING POOLS ONLY. TYPHOON SLIDES ARE NEVER TO BE INSTALLED AND
USED ON HOUSEBOATS, BOAT DOCKS, FLOATING DOCKS OR PLATFORMS, OR OTHER
BODIES OF WATER SUCH AS LAKES, PONDS, RIVERS, ETC. PROPER AND COMPLETE
ASSEMBLY, USE AND SUPERVISION IS ESSENTIAL FOR PROPER OPERATION AND TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF ACCIDENT OR INJURY.
**IMPORTANT**
Check inside all boxes and packaging materials for parts. Before beginning assembly, read the
instructions and identify parts using the figures and parts listed in this document. It is critical that all
parts be carefully inspected by the installer prior to installation to ensure that no damage occurred in
transit and that a damaged part is not used. Proper installation cannot be overstressed, as an improper
installation voids S.R. Smith’s warranty and may affect the safety of the user.

Assembly:
Before getting started:
•To prevent damage to the parts during assembly, it is recommended that cardboard or
some other protective barrier is laid down on the ground where the slide is to be
assembled.
•Verify that the gasket material is affixed to the slide parts as shown in Figures 2 and 3.
•During assembly, be sure to apply a thin coat of anti-seize compound to the threads of all
fasteners. Anti-seize helps aid in assembly, prevents galling, and improves corrosion
resistance.
1) Assemble the pedestal part to the runway exit section as shown in Figure 4. Attach the pedestal part
to the runway exit section by inserting the two lag screws into the holes located in the bottom of the
pedestal.
2) Before inserting the lag bolts into the side of the runway exit part, 1/4” pilot holes must be drilled into
the center of each of the recesses. The pilot holes should be drilled through both the runway exit
section and into the pedestal.
3) Place the assembled runway exit section and pedestal upright so that the pedestal is resting on the
ground. Notes: It may take more than one person to perform this step. Verify that the gasket
material is properly attached before assembling the parts.
4) Insert the threaded studs into each of the threaded inserts as shown in Figure 5. The studs should be
screwed in by hand until they reach the bottom of the insert. If the studs cannot be threaded in by
hand, pliers may be used. Before using pliers, a piece of cloth should be placed over the stud to
protect the threads from damage. Note: Be sure to apply anti-seize to all fasteners to prevent
galling.

5) Assemble the top ladder section to the lower ladder section as shown in Figure 6. Insert the two
button head cap screws into the threaded inserts as shown in Figure 6. Do not fully tighten the screws
at this point; just get the screws started into the threaded inserts. Note: Be sure to apply anti-
seize to all fasteners to prevent galling.
6) Insert the button head cap screws into the back side of the ladder as shown in Figure 7. Tighten the
screws until snug. Go back and fully tighten the screws from Step 7. Note: Be sure to apply anti-seize
to all fasteners to prevent galling.
7) Insert the two carriage bolts into the steps as shown in Figure 6. Tighten the nuts onto the carriage
bolt until the lock washer is fully compressed. Note: Be sure to apply anti-seize to all fasteners to
prevent galling.

8) Align the threaded studs sticking out of the top ladder section with the holes in the upper runway
section. Attach the runway to the ladder using the hardware shown in Figure 8. Tighten until the
lock washer is fully compressed. Notes: It may take more than one person to perform this
step. Verify that the gasket material is properly attached before assembling the parts. Be
sure to apply anti-seize to all fasteners to prevent galling.

9) Stand the ladder upright and attach the runway entrance section to the runway exit section using
the button head cap screws as shown in Figure 9. Tighten the button head cap screws until the
lock washers are compressed. Notes: It may take more than one person to perform this
step. Be sure to apply anti-seize to all fasteners to prevent galling.
10) Once the button head screws are tightened, insert the hex head cap screws into the underside of
the runway as shown in Figure 9. Tighten the hex head cap screws until the lock washers are
compressed. Note: Be sure to apply anti-seize to all fasteners to prevent galling.

11) First, fully assemble the water system components in the order shown in Figure 10 without gluing
anything together. Assemble the water system parts to the ladder to ensure that everything fits
before proceeding. Be sure that the ball valve is properly centered in the recess of the ladder.
12) Attach the pipe clamps to the ladder as shown in Figure 10, detail B.
13) Use PVC primer and glue to permanently assemble the parts together as in step 11.
14) Glue the top end of the PVC hose into the fitting in the ladder.
15) Use the pipe straps to fasten the ball valve into the ladder recess as shown in Figure 11, detail A.
16) Insert the hose into the hose clamps by firmly pushing the hose into the back of the clamp.

PLUMBING INSTRUCTIONS
1. The Typhoon is designed for a water supply line of 1” pipe. Plumb from pool return line with a 1”
PVC pipe “stubbed up” at the deck positioned at the base of the ladder. Refer to FIG. 1 on page 2.
FIG. 1 is for reference only. Assembled slide should be placed in its correct location and the “stub
up” location marked and installed before mounting the slide to the deck. “Stub up” should be dark
grey PVC to match the plumbing assembly of the slide. Note: “Stub up” should extend above the
deck 18” in height. It can be cut to proper length further in the installation process.
2. If a garden hose is to be used, a garden hose
adapter fitting is included with the slide. Assemble
the pieces as shown in Figure 12 and attach to the
end of the PVC plumbing assembly at the base of
the ladder.
3. Proceed to the following section for ON-DECK
MOUNTING. After the slide has been mounted to
the deck, attach the “stub up” as necessary to the
plumbing assembly installed in the ladder.
4. The Typhoon can handle up to 20 gallons per
minute. Water flow is to be regulated using the ball
valve near the base of the ladder.
