To assemble & install:
Mounting Brackets to the appropriate sides of the spa:
Option 1.
By positioning the mounting brackets 8” (203 mm.) down from the
top of the spa shell, approximately 9” (229 mm.) clearance behind
the spa will be needed. Mounted at this position, approx. 75% of the
spa cover will be standing above the spa surface in the off position.
Option 2.
By positioning the mounting brackets 12” (305 mm.) down from the
top of the spa shell, approx. 15” (381mm.) clearance behind the spa
will be needed. Mounted at this position, approx. 50% of the spa
cover will be standing above the spa surface in the off position.
CAUTION: to prevent splitting of the cabinet, pre-drill holes with
a 1/16” (29 mm.) drill bit. Mounting height is optional (Option 1
or 2 - see above).
Connect the side pivot arms to the mounting brackets. After the side
pivot arms are connected, tilt them back to the upright position.
Position the spa cover (in closed position) on the spa, making sure
that all four corners are properly positioned and square on the spa.
Insert the coupler bar into the cover support arms. Slide the
short cover support arms into the side pivot arms.
Lay the top mount cover lifter on the spa cover. Adjust the
coupler bar and support arms so that the coupler bars are in
parallel to the spa cover hinge and about 1/2” (13 mm.) away.
Using the #10 self-tapping screws, fasten the cover support
arms to the side pivot arms and the coupler.
CAUTION: Be sure to rotate the coupler bar so that the
inserted screws are at a horizontal angle with screw heads
facing the back of the spa (See Photo 5). This will ensure that
the screw heads do not come into contact with the spa cover and
prevent the screws from tearing the cover.
Attach the provided 3-hook towel rack on the preferred side of
your top mount cover lifter by simply snapping it into place and
inserting the middle self-tapping screw (FIG 4a).
