SET UP AND USE (CON'T)
Q: How many people are required to set-up / take down SlideAway?
S.R.Smith recommends two people set-up / take down SlideAway.
Q: How tall is SlideAway?
SlideAway is 5'/152 cm tall; the height to the seat is 4'/122 cm . When folded for storage, SlideAway is 5' 6"/168 cm
tall. Refer to the
Owner's Manual.
Q: How much deck space does SlideAway require?
SlideAway requires 7' from end to end when it is in the open position with the support brace inserted. Keep in mind
that a minimum of 4" must hang over the pool wall before it can be filled with water and used, so the actual deck
space may be closer to 6' depending on how far the slide overhangs the pool. Please refer to the Slide Away Owner's
Manual for more precise dimensions and set-up instructions.
Q: Does the SlideAway need to have water in it before using it?
YES. SlideAway must be filled to the minimum water line marked on the slide before use. The pool owner is
responsible for ensuring the proper water level in the base every time the slide is going to be used. Read and follow
all safety instructions on the slide and refer to the SlideAway
Owner's Manual
for important safety information
regarding the proper set-up of SlideAway before using it.
Q: How long does it take to fill the SlideAway with water to the fill line?
Fill time depends on the water pressure of the garden hose but typically it takes less than ten minutes to fill the base
to the minimum fill line.
Q: How often should I check the water level of SlideAway?
The water level should always be checked before the slide is used; at minimum, it should be checked daily.
Q: Is the dolly a custom product that only works with SlideAway?
No. The dolly included with SlideAway is a standard dolly rated to support up to 150 lbs/68 kg. To ensure proper
use, please refer to the instructions on how to use the SlideAway dolly in the
Owner's Manual.
Q: Can the SlideAway be moved with the dolly while water is inside the ladder?
DO NOT try to move the SlideAway once it has water inside of it. The dolly was only designed to move the
SlideAway on and off the pool deck when it is empty and not in use. Draining the SlideAway completely is required
before using the dolly to move it off of the deck or even to a new location on the deck. Attempting to move the
SlideAway without the dolly could result in damage to your pool deck and SlideAway.
