PROPER ASSEMBLY, INSTALLATION, USE, AND SUPERVISION ARE ESSENTIAL FOR PROPER
OPERATION AND TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY.
THE SLIDE OWNER MUST CONFIRM THAT THE MANUFACTURER’S PLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED BY THE INSTALLER.
1.
The critical dimensions for placement of the
Turbotwister are as shown in
A.
The slide exit runway surface shall not exceed 20” (508 mm) above the water surface as
shown in
B. The slide shall be positioned so that all
water flowing off the runway exit drops into the pool.
Recommended overhang is 4” (102 mm).
C.
The minimum depth of water below the exit lip of the slide shall be 3’ (914 mm) and increases
to 4’
-
6” (1372 mm) at Pt. A, which is a distance of 4’
-
6” (1372 mm) from the exit lip of the
slide as shown in
D.
A minimum depth of 4’
-
6” (1372 mm) shall be maintained at a distance of 9’ (2743 mm) along
the extended centerline of the slide from Pt. A. as shown in FIGURE
FIGURE B
2.
A minimum clearance area in front of the slide shall be maintained at all
times as follows:
A.
The minimum clearance distance on either side of the extended
centerline of the slide runway shall not be less than 3’
-6” (1067 mm)
at a point no less than 2’
-
6” (762 mm) from the exit lip of the sl
ide
and extending a distance of 13’
-
6” (4115 mm) in front of the slide as
shown in
B.
The minimum clearance area in front of a properly installed diving
board on an inground
swimming pool is a minimum distance of 3’
-6”
(1067 mm) on either side of the board’s centerline as shown in
FIGURE
. Pt. C extends a minimum distance
of “C” from the tip
end of the board as shown in FIGURE
The width distance “W” on
either side of Pt. C is given in FIGURE
