IMPORTANT
Please make special note of areas marked in RED
STEP 2: TUBE ASSEMBLY
for SRT14, SRT18 and SRT24 Tube Sets
(See page 2 for assembly of SRT28 and SRT34 Tube Sets)
B. Lock tubes together by rotating the center tube in the opposite direction to end tube.
ce 2 more self-drilling screws at Location “C2” & ”C3” - 1 screw at every second
drill line around tubes (see Fig. 4 & 5).
At “D” locations install 3 screws around the center tube at every second drill line, 1“
(2.5 cm) back from where you marked the end of the inner tube (see Fig. 4).
Repeat for other end tube.
HOLD TUBES LOCKED WHILE YOU
INSTALL THE FIRST SELF-DRILLING SCREW ON A DRILL LINE, 1“ (2.5 cm) back from the end of the center tube at Location

At the determined location, measure the width of the pool from the
outside edges of top rail and subtract 4“ (10 cm) to ensure ends of
system are 1/2” wider than outside of top rail. Ends must sit loosely
on pool. System Ends must be FULLY inserted into end tubes.

Four Easy Steps:
If you need additional assistance: E-mail us at [email protected] or call Monday to Friday 905-876-4766 during business hours 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
Determine the best location for the reel system. On round pools, the reel should be located across the center of the pool.
On oval or rectangular pools, locate the reel at its widest point where there is no decking on either side
(see Fig. 2 below).
Note: Surface Rider II (SREII) systems must be installed at mid-point.
Tubes Must be in Locked Position
Drill Lines DO NOT line up when tubes are locked

Ensure minimum insert of each end tube is inside center tube
(see table at right)
Less than minimum insert causes screws to loosen and/or tubes to split.
