Step #6
Repeat steps 2 through 5 for the 2nd cover before proceeding to step #7.
Step #7
Gently raise the Smartop into the upright position making sure to keep a firm
grip on the cover and attach the shocks to the ball studs
(see Fig. 4)
.
Note:
When attaching the shocks, make sure the black body of the shock is on top. The
ball studs are pre-installed in the hole closest to the back of the bracket. If the
Smartop doesn’t lift off the spa easily, start by moving the ball stud on one of the
sides of the spa to the front hole and re-attach the shock. If the Smartop still
doesn’t lift off the spa easily, move the ball stud on the opposite side of the spa and
re-attach the shock.
