STEP 2
Once the location of the base plate (B) has
been determined, use a pencil to mark two
holes to be drilled into the deck to secure the
alarm. There are four holes in the base,
choose one hole on the left side and one on the
right. See Fig 2.
STEP 3
After the holes are marked, drill the two holes
using a ½ inch masonry drill.
**NOTE** TAKE
GREAT CARE USING POWER TOOLS AROUND
THE POOL. BE SURE THAT NO PEOPLE ARE IN
THE POOL DURING ANY PHASE OF THE
INSTALATION. REMOVE ALL POWER TOOLS
FROM THE POOL AREA AS SOON AS THAT
PHASE IS COMPLETE.**
The holes need to be
drilled 1 ¾ inches deep (Fig 3). The easiest
way to determine how deep to drill is to
measure 1 ¾ inches from the end of the drill bit.
Mark that location with a piece of tape. When
drilling, stop when the deck is level with the
tape. The hole should now be 1 ¾ inches deep.
Remove all dust and debris from the holes.
Remove the nuts and washers from the
mounting anchors (F), and insert the mounting
anchors into the previously drilled holes. To
mount on a wood deck, use ½ inch x 1 inch lag
screws with ½ inch washers (not included)
STEP 4
Install the alarm base over the two anchors.
Place the flat washer over the anchor threads,
then the lock washers. Next screw the two nuts
onto the anchors and tighten snugly using a
wrench as shown in Fig 4.
