22 INSTALLATION INSTALLATION MANUAL
Assembly preparation
WARNING

Before assembling, keep in mind not to
overtighten bolts. Power tools
must not be used.
The bolts will break under too much torque.
1) Attach the installation foam to the top of the hot
tub near each corner using the masking tape
provided in the part box. There must be at least
two foam spacers per side. Do not stack two
pieces of foam one on top of the other. (Figure
41)
CAUTION

The foam pieces must be placed on the flat top
surface of the hot tub.
2) Place the top section of the COVANA cover on
the hot tub and center it as best as possible.
Measure your hot tub
’s dimensions and put the
long side of the COVANA cover on the longest
side of the hot tub. (Figure 42) If a LED light kit
is included, the light switch should be placed on
the entry side of the hot tub.
Note: The cover is rectangular. (Figure 42) The
standard model will need the motor frame to be on
the short side of the COVANA cover, whereas the
long-side will need the motor frame on the long side
of the COVANA cover.
WARNING

The cover alone weighs approximately 185 lb. (84
kg).
CAUTION

When handling the cover, both people must
support the outer and inner shells with their
hands. A wide grip is best when handling the
cover, as all four sides must be lifted equally.

3 to 4 people may be required. If the COVANA
cover is too heavy to handle, remove the outer
shell. Be careful not to fold the outer shell or
scratch it on the inner steel frame.
