INSTALLING ANCHORS INTO EXISTING CONCRETE DECK
Follow these guidelines to make sure that your anchors are installed properly:
1. Minimum concrete slab requirements for the multiLift™:
Slab dimensions should be at least 42” X 60” X 4”, reinforced. See Figure 11 above.
Anchors shall be installed at a minimum of 4” or greater from the edge of the slab or
expansion joint.
Existing slab shall exhibit no signs of cracking or deterioration.
2. S.R. Smith recommends using Simpson SET epoxy adhesives or equivalent for installation of the
deck anchors. Use epoxy adhesives per the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Use
Figure 10 and Table 1 to determine the proper location to install the lift, making certain that
the front anchors are located the correct distance from the pool edge.
4. Layout and mark the hole locations on the deck using the multiLift™ Anchor Set Jig as a
template.
5. Drill four holes 1.125” diameter and 3.625” deep in the locations marked in step 2. Note: The hole
that the bondable anchor will be inserted into will need to be slightly deeper than the others. It is
recommended that the anchors are placed into each hole prior to pouring the epoxy to ensure
that the holes are drilled to the proper depth.
