Step 1:

Step 3:
Rotate rod until heel is free from anchor bolt. Cover is now secured to anchor.

New mesh covers tend to shrink in their cartons. By compressing spring almost totally (at least 85-90%) during the initial installation, you will ensure that the cover will stretch back to its normal size. It is also recommended that the springs be retightened 2 to 3 weeks after inital installation to ensure that they remain approximately 70-75% compressed at all times.

Due to the very minimal stretch of the solid cover material, inital spring compression for these covers should be set to approximately 60%, When equipped with drain panels, spring tension adjustments may be necessary to promoteproper drainage. To maintain safety, any standing water must be pumped off immediately.

Step 1:
Insert Installation Rod over anchor bolt with heel of rod facing cover (see Figure 11).
Step 2:
Pressing downward, rotate rod 180 degrees so that heel of rod is between anchor bolt and retaining ring (see Figure 12).
Step 3:
Tilt rod slightly toward cover until retaining ring slides off anchor bolt. Cover is now released from anchor.
