Installation Guide
7. Mount the Mounting Blocks as wide and as low as possible. Attach the two Mounting
Blocks to the cabinet pedestal or base of spa cabinet it there is no pedestal, with the 1-1/4”
Wood Screws (G) provided. NOTE: Mounting Blocks may be attached directly to deck
surface or use Universal adaptor bracket available from your dealer for round, oval or
octagonal spas.
8. Pull out/Push in on the top Corner/Side Arm assembly to adjust the Cover Butler so that
the Bridge Arm is about 1/2” behind the fold seam of the spa cover as shown in Figure C. The
Bridge Arm must be parallel to the cover fold seam. Be sure to slide the Side Arms an equal
distance into each Corner Piece. Secure the Side Arms to each Corner Piece with #10 x 1-1/4”
screws. Use 3 screws per connection for all connections.
9. Center Premium Cover Lifter on spa so that there is approximately 1-1/2” clearance on each
side between spa and the inside of Premium Cover Lifter tubing. Screw in one #10 x 5/8”
self-drilling metal screw just to the outside of each Mounting Block to lock Premium Cover
Lifter into this position and prevent it from moving side to side. See Figure B.
10. Insert one #10 x 5/8” self-drilling metal screw through the end of one Retaining Chain
(D). Fold spa cover back and lift cover with Premium Cover Lifter until cover is hanging
vertically behind spa. Attach Retaining Chain to OUTSIDE of Side Arm of Premium Cover
Lifter approximately parallel with top of spa cabinet. Tighten screw securely but make sure
that chain can move freely on screw shaft. Attach the other end of the chain to the center hole
in the Chain Bracket (F) with a #10 x 5/8” self-drilling metal screw. With cover hanging
vertically behind spa with about 1” between spa cover and the back of the spa cabinet
(Premium Cover Lifter will be in a slightly over-vertical position), attach the Chain Bracket
to the spa cabinet with three #8 x 5/8” wood screws. The Retaining Chain should be
approximately parallel with the ground, but this is NOT critical to operation. Tighten Screw
securely, but make sure chain can move freely on screw shaft. See Figure D.
