Place your hardcover on the spa and position it to fold in the direction of your preference.
On each strap of the hardcover there is a black plastic lock. Press the two prongs on each lock together and
gently pull downwards to remove the section of the lock which you will need to screw onto the spas cabinet. With
the section of the lock you have in your hand place it behind the prongs which are attached to the hardcover strap
lined up so that the bottom of each part is flush. Now raise the section of the lock you have in your hand towards
the top of the spa by 2cm and mark the position of the two holes on each lock onto the spas cabinet. Using the
smaller screws supplied in the green bag screw each lock onto the spas cabinet. Do not pre-drill holes the screws
will self-tap in, if using a drill stop before the screw is completely tight and finish tightening the screw by hand, if
you over tighten the lock you will crack the plastic.
HARDCOVER USE & CARE
To lift the hardcover, place your hand underneath the valance and lift the hardcover itself not from the handles or
valance. The handles & valance on the hardcover are not for lifting or pulling the hardcover, lifting or pulling on the
handles or valance will tear the vinyl & stitching. Never stand, sit or apply any weight to the hardcover this will
bend or break the hardcover. Do not open the zippers on your hardcover they can be extremely difficult to close
and may not close at all. To clean your hardcover wipe both the top vinyl and underside over with a damp fresh
tap water cloth. Do not use the spas water to wipe the hardcover this will leave chemical stains on the cover. To
extend the life expectancy of your hardcover apply 303 aerospace protectant to the vinyl side of your hardcover
every 30 days and balance your spas water weekly as per the chemical instructions we have supplied you with.
Poorly balanced water can blister your hardcover and breakdown the stitching.
Your hardcover must always be locked to the spas cabinet when the spa is not in use. Leaving the cover off
exposes your spa to the elements which can cause permanent damage to the spas acrylic shell and fittings, it also
allows leaves, dust etc. to enter your spa. Debris in the spa can cause blockages or damage to the equipment.
SYNTHETIC CABINET CARE
Do not use any chemicals to clean your synthetic cabinet. The best way to clean your cabinet is to regularly wipe it
down with a micro fibre cloth and fresh tap water. Where possible try to keep the cabinet from being exposed to
the sun as this causes colour fade in the cabinet and can also cause the cabinet to warp. Cabinets will have step
outs where the cabinet doors do not meet each other. We make the cabinet doors in smaller panels to make the
spa easier to service which causes the step outs you will see.
ACRYLIC SHELL CARE
One a week use a chemical free micro fibre cloth and wipe down the acrylic spa shell in and above the water line.
An empty or partially empty spa of water during sunlight hours can cause deforming, melting, crazing, discolouration,
blisters or holes in the spa’s fiberglass, acrylic and fittings, this can happen within minutes of the spa being emptied
or partially empty. Your warranty does not cover deforming, melting, crazing, discolouration, blisters or holes in the
spa’s acrylic and fittings, so it is especially important your hardcover is on the spa when not in use and the spa is
filled with water at all times during daylight hours.
DRAINING THE SPA - USING THE DRAIN FITTING WARNING:
Never drain or partially drain your spa of water in sunlight hours.
Always drain your spa at night time & fully refill your spa with water the same night.
EMPTY SPA WARNING
An empty or partially empty spa of water during sunlight hours can cause deforming, melting, crazing, discolouration,
blisters or holes in the spa’s fiberglass, acrylic and fittings, this can happen within minutes of the spa being emptied
or partially empty. Your warranty does not cover deforming, melting, crazing, discolouration, blisters or holes in the
spa’s acrylic and fittings, so it is especially important your hardcover is on the spa when not in use and the spa is
filled with water at all times during daylight hours.
