Anchor Installation
Before installing the lift, determine where to place the lift on the deck. Locate
the lift as close to the pool/spa as possible to ensure that the seat arm clears the
pool/spa wall. As shown in FIGURE 1 below, the lift must be a minimum of 10”
from the front anchor holes to the pool/spa wall. Also, allow enough room for
the seat arm to swing around away from the pool/spa. Refer to the specifications
for lift dimensions.
You will need:
•
Hammer
• 1 1/8” Masonry Bit
•
Drill
• Marker/Chalk
1.
If ordered with lift, the Spa Lift Ultra is shipped with three (3) 8 inch anchor inserts. Make a mark on the deck
with a marker or chalk at each anchor location.
2.
Using the 1 1/8 inch masonry bit, drill a hole in the concrete deck to a depth of 8 1/2 inches at each of the
three anchor locations. The holes must be drilled perpendicular to the deck or the bolts will not thread into the
anchors. Once the holes have been drilled to the proper depth, clean all debris out of the anchor holes.
3.
Fill each hole half full with Hilti
TM
brand HIT RE-500-SD or Simpson
TM
brand SET-XP, or equivalent. Thread a
1/2 inch hex bolt into each anchor and then insert the anchor into the hole, twisting as you go, untill the anchor
insert is flush with the deck. Clean off any excess epoxy from around the hole and make sure not to get any
epoxy on the 1/2 inch threads.
4.
Bond the anchor according to local code requirements using the bonding screw on the bottom of one of the
anchor inserts. Reference the National Electric Code (NEC) Article 680.26 for specifics on bonding.
