ADA Fixing Insert Installation (Commercial Applications)
STEP 1: INSTALLING THE LIFT ON THE POOL/SPA DECK
1.
Due to the indexed anchor and keyed base of the lift, we recommend installation of the fixing insert after
the concrete has cured and you are ready to install the lift into the anchor.
2. Place the main assembly in the anchor and turn until the locking pin on the shaft of the lift lines up and
drops into the locking pin slot in the anchor. DO NOT LIFT THE MAIN ASSEMBLY BY USING THE ELECTRIC
RAM AS A HANDLE. If the transport cart was ordered with the lift, it can be used effectively here. If not,
use two people.
3.
Mark the location for the fixing anchor hole and remove the lift.
(see pg 4, FIGURE A)
4. Drill the hole with a 1 1/4 inch core drill or roto-hammer to a depth of about 4 1/2 inches.
5.
Clean the hole out and make sure it is dry. Thread the 1/2 inch bolt into the top of the PVC fixing anchor
and test fit to verify it can be mounted perpendicular. See Step 1 below.
6.
Using a two part construction epoxy, fill the hole approximately half full and carefully insert the PVC fixing
anchor into the hole, twisting as you push down to evenly spread the epoxy.
7. Allow the epoxy to cure before securing the lift.
8. Re-install the lift into the anchor and using the 1/2 inch bolt and washer, carefully thread into the installed
anchor until snug. TO PREVENT BREAKING THE FIXING BRACKET, DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
