Solar Reel systems are designed solely to remove solar covers and are not made to support people or any other weight.
Solar covers must be completely removed before entry into the pool. Under no circumstances, should one swim in a pool partially
covered with the solar cover.
When you start to roll up the cover all straps must take hold of the cover at the same time.
Adjust the strap lengths if necessary.
