Safety devices
Safety devices protect the user and must not be modified or bypassed.
Smart key docking system
Lock
The smart key is magnetically coded and key to any lift operation.
When pulled the foldaway lift system is locked and the safety controller will
ignore any attempt of lift engagement.
A white orientation light will illuminate the docking area during night.
Unlock
Dock the smart key with the black plastic facing the spa on the white
illuminated docking station and wait for the LED ring to engage in green
color. The system is now unlocked and ready to use.
Cover quick release mechanism
(see Illustration D)
The cover is attached to the lifts internal slider mechanism on both sides with plastic circlips.
Simply remove the circlip and push the carbon support outward to detach the cover from the
carriage mechanism.
The cover will move down freely depending on the current position after releasing both
sides.
Self locking drive
The drives are self locking in any position even without power supply.
Overload protection
Each drive is equipped with a mechanical, factory set safety clutch, that opens for overload and
protects the cover lift system and the spa cabinet. The load must exceed approx. 60kg / 132lbs.
When the clutch opens the cover is exposed to free fall in open or closed direction
depending on the direction of the overloading force and the covers actual position.
The clutch will close again automatically when the overload condition is removed.
The safety clutch is a safety device and not designed for regular utilization. Frequent
clutch activation reduces the force needed to unlock the drive due to material wear and is
not covered by warranty.
The lift must never be engaged when the cover is obviously twisted.
(see also chapter Troubleshooting)
Strong wind and gusts can exceed the disengage force of the mechanical safety system
and allow the cover to move out of the controlled position.
