PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT

GENERAL: Your automatic cover has been made to be easy to use on a regular basis for many years with little service. Since
the automatic cover is easy to use, some people allow almost anyone to operate it. However, our experience shows that the
amount of service required grows with the number of non-instructed people who operate the cover. PLEASE DO NOT
ALLOW ANYONE TO OPERATE THE MECHANISM UNLESS PROPERLY INSTRUCTED. NEVER ALLOW
CHILDREN TO OPERATE THE COVER.

WARNING: Walking on the cover should be for emergency purposes only. Playing or walking on the cover is discouraged in

the strongest terms. Damage can be done to the fabric and sharp objects may cause tears, decreasing the life and strength of
the fabric. Before operating the cover remove all objects from the pool and cover, including toys, pool cleaners, cover pumps
and hoses. Be sure you have full view of the pool area when operating the cover. Do not leave a pool partially covered.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

COVERING THE POOL: Remove any objects from the pool. Turn the key or push touch-pad in the “cover” position until
the cover is closed. For undertrack systems: Release the key or touch-pad as soon as the cover contacts the pool end. On uni­versal track systems, run the cover up to within two-to-three inches of the end of the track. A convenient way to judge this is
to place a stop mark on the cover, which will align with a stop mark placed on the tracks.

RNING! KOSA, remove the key after closing. Touch Pad, turn key to off and remove the key after closing! Store key in a

WA

secure location to prevent unauthorized operation of the cover.

NEXT: Always latch the leading edge. Basically any accommodation for latching will be done on your leading edge bar on
the front of your cover. Our concern is that under some circumstances a young child may be able to force their way under the
cover by pulling or pushing on the leading edge. Another possible situation is when weight is applied to the cover, this may
force the leading edge open enough to allow a child to slip through the opening. Weight on the cover can occur from a water,
snow load or another child standing on the cover. Make sure your cover is closed completely as described in this manual then
fasten all latches immediately. Put the cover pump on the cover at this time.

OPENING THE POOL: Unlatch the leading edge. Remove the cover pump and any debris that may damage the cover.
Insert the key, turn the key or push touch-pad in the “uncover” position until the cover is open completely! Do not try to
retract the pool cover too closely to the end of the tracks. The leading edge in undertrack models should rest half way across
the pool end wall. On universal track models, the leading edge should stop before the mechanism housing.

AUTO SHUT OFF CONTROL: If your cover has been installed with an optional Auto Shut Off control the opening and
closing operation will be the same as described. The exception is, your cover will shut off automatically when it has reached
the fully opened or closed position. This feature prevents overrunning the cover in either direction, avoiding possible damage.
Make sure that your cover is opening and closing evenly, so your Auto Shut Off will be able to operate properly. While oper­ating the cover you may stop and reverse direction at any point between the fully opened or fully closed position. Once the
cover has shut off automatically in one direction you will only be able to run it in the opposite direction.

NOTE: If there has been a power interruption to your control, the system will not operate until power has been restored. Once
power is restored it is possible to overrun the cover if the control is oper­ated in the wrong direction. Once the cover has been run in the correct
direction for just a few feet the shut off sequence is restored and it will
not be possible to overrun the cover.

LATCHING PROCEDURE . Close cover to designated point. . Put
pin through the grommet in the strap. . Press the pin into the housing
in the deck until it clicks into place.

TO REMOVE PIN . Put the key in the top of the pin. Line up the pin
slot with the key spur. (The spur should point away from the center of
the pin.) . Push the key down until it stops. . Turn the key  degrees.
. Pull up on the key to remove the pin from the housing.
