Steps for Installation
Page 1.
Step 1: Inventory
Make sure that you have all of the parts needed, by laying it all out and taking inventory. Be sure
that you have the correct side unit. (left or right). This is determined by standing behind the vault
looking towards the pool. Which side is the drive unit and rope reel going to mount on. Do you have
enough track for the length desired.
Is there a parts bag containing the following:
One bag of 1 3/4” screws
One bag of plastic ribbed anchors
One bag of small drum screws
One bag with 1/2” leading edge bolts w/ washers and nylon lock nuts
Two track splice connectors or enough for all splices
Two end pulley assembly’s
You should also have a leading edge bar and two poles.
Last but not least, a bag containing the correct colored cover fabric.
THE BAG DOES NOT INDICATE FABRIC COLOR so look inside.
Step 2: Review Presite or Measurements
You should review the presite sheet or dimensions given to Aquamatic Cover Systems for proper
track placement. The two measurements that you are mainly interested in are the track to track di-
mension and the track length. Also there may be a note indicating where to place the track on the
coping or deck. This is important for proper drive unit placement.
The track to track measurement will tell you how far apart the tracks will be set. This measurement is
taken from the recessed groove in the track to the other track groove.
The track length is simply the overall length, from vault to end pulley’s.
