Spa Cover Installation; Delivery Access - Caldera Makena Owner's Manual

SPA COVER INSTALLATION

1. Place the cover squarely on the spa.
2. Position the tie-down locks included with your cover on the
side of the spa so that they are easily reached by the cover
tie-down straps. Allow for about 1.5 - 2 cm (1/2" to 3/4") slack
in the straps to make it easy to insert straps into locks and to
compensate for vinyl shrinkage in cold weather.
3. Attach the locks with the screws provided and insert the cover
tie-down straps into the locks.
NOTE: Keeping the cover in place any time the spa is not in use will
reduce the amount of time the heater operates, thereby minimizing
operating costs.
Your CALDERA spa has been thoroughly tested during the
manufacturing process to ensure reliability and long-term customer
satisfaction. A small amount of water may have remained in the
plumbing after testing and, as a result, may have spotted the spa shell
or the spa siding prior to delivery. Before filling the spa, wipe the spa
shell clean with a soft rag. The following instructions must be read and
followed exactly to ensure a successful start-up or refill.

DELIVERY ACCESS

NOTE: It may be necessary to allow for additional over-head clearance if the spa
will be rolled up or down an incline or moved up or down a short flight of stairs.
Use the information in the chart on the next page to determine the requirements
for access to your desired location. It may be necessary to remove a gate, part
of a fence, or other movable obstructions in order to roll the spa to its installation
site. About ten percent of the time, a crane is the only way to install the spa by
lifting it to its final destination.
If the spa has to be taken off of the cart to go over a wall (either because the
entry area is too narrow, the eaves are too low, the corner is too tight, or the
stairway is too steep), a crane will be required. Don't be alarmed!
The crane has a truck-mounted boom which can fit right in your driveway. It is run
by a licensed and insured operator.
For a charge, the crane operator will
lift your spa over walls, buildings,
or any other obstruction and place
it as close to the installation site
as possible. The CALDERA spa
delivery personnel will supervise the
crane delivery and complete the spa
installation. Crane delivery typically
takes an average of 30 minutes to
complete.
NOTE: If your spa delivery requires
the use of a crane, you may be
required to pay for its services at the
completion of the delivery.
