15’ GARDEN RIDE SLIDE ASSEMBLY
INSTALLING LANDING PADS:
Using cardboard to place under the slide sections so as not to damage the finish; lay both
the upper and lower flume sections upside down. Each flume section has a yoke support
that requires attachment of a 90° Landing Pad. (See Figure 1) Install pad on the side of
flange towards pool, attach the Upper and Lower Landing Pads to the Mid Section Supports
(Exit and Entry) using 3/8” x 1

” stainless steel bolt, flat washer, lock washer and nut.
Make sure to use the provided Anti-Seize on all hardware.
NOTE: The two Yoke Landing Pads have four ( 4 ) attachment holes and the single
Flume to Flume Landing Pad has three ( 3 ) attachment holes. (See Figure 2)

CONNECTING FLUMES:
NOTE: Temporarily connect the Zoome Flume™ water delivery system to a water
source and test for leaks or defects prior to assembly/installation.
Align the two flume sections and line up the Center Landing Pad along the upper flume
flange, using the provided 3/8” stainless steel hardware, place a flat washer on the 3/8”
x 1

” bolt and push the bolt and the two flume sections and landing pad on pool side of
flange, secure with the other flat washer, lock washer and nut. (See Figure 3) Make sure
to use the provided Anti-Seize on all hardware. Hand tighten all seven flange bolts. With
a minimum of three ( 3 ) persons, turn the slide sections over. Check that the two flumes
are aligned correctly by running your hand along the sliding surface. You want to ensure a
smooth transition between the two sections, adjust sections as needed. When both are
aligned properly, utilizing a torque wrench, tighten each nut to approximately half of the maximum
25 ft. lbs. Tighten the bolts in an alternating fashion working from Left to Right starting
with the center bolt, working your way up the flange. (See Figure 4) Tightening the bolts in
this sequence is necessary to compress the gasket evenly.
Repeat the same tightening process until the specified 25 ft. lbs. is reached at each bolt.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. Using greater force may fracture the fiberglass.
