TO WINTERIZE YOUR POOL
We suggest removing your Confer-Step from the pool for the off-season months.
WARNING! Pool step will be heavy and must be lifted from within the pool. Have additional
help when removing from swimming pool. Do not attempt to remove by yourself.
If your Confer-Step-1x is attached to a deck: Two people are required for this operation and it is
best to remove the unit while the water is still warm enough so that one person can get into the
pool. Disconnect the mounting brackets from the deck. The person in the water can lift the unit up
while the person on the deck helps to pull and guide the unit onto the deck. After the unit is on the
deck, and the water has drained out of the steps, lay the unit on it’s back side so that most of the
water drains from the side panels.
If getting into the water is not an option the unit can be removed by both people standing on the
deck and lifting and tilting the unit to drain some of the water from the steps. After the unit is light
enough carefully lift it from the pool. Caution: Use care when lifting the unit. It will weigh at least
130 lbs.
If you have the Confer-Step Enclosure System or Connector System: disconnect the two units by
removing the center platform/side rail assembly at the top of the steps.
WARNING! Do not stand on the top step of the outside unit as it may tip.
Lift up the unit inside the pool and tilt it so that water drains out of the steps. Once it is light enough
carefully lift it over the side of the pool, lay the unit on it’s back side and allow most of the water to
drain from the side panels.
The Confer-Step can be covered, if desired, and stored outdoors.
To reinstall, follow installation instructions steps 10-12.
