MANUFACTURER'S PLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
PROPER ASSEMBLY, INSTALLATION, USE, AND SUPERVISION ARE ESSENTIAL FOR PROPER
OPERATION AND TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY.
1. The critical dimensions for placement of the Typhoon are as shown in FIGURE M and FIGURE N.
A. The slide exit runway surface shall not exceed 20" (508 mm) above the water surface as
shown in FIGURE M.
B. The slide shall be positioned so that all water flowing off the runway exit drops into the pool.
The recommended overhang is 4" (102 mm).
C. The minimum depth of water below the exit lip of the slide shall be 3' (914 mm) and increase
to 4'-6" (1371 mm) at Pt. A, which is a distance of 4'-6" (1371 mm) from the exit lip of the
slide as shown in FIGURE M.
D. A minimum depth of 4'-6" (1371 mm) shall be maintained at a distance of 9' (2743 mm) along
the extended centerline of the slide from Pt. A. as shown in FIGURE M.
2. A minimum clearance area in front of the slide shall be maintained at all
times as follows:
A. The minimum clearance distance on either side of the extended
centerline of the slide runway shall not be less than 3'-6" (1067 mm)
at a point no less than 2'-6" (762 mm) from the exit lip of the slide
and extending a distance of 13'-6" (4115 mm) in front of the slide as
shown in FIGURE N.
B. A. The minimum clearance area in front of a properly installed
diving board on an inground swimming pool is a minimum distance
of 3'-6" (1067 mm) on either side of the board's centerline as shown
in FIGURE O. Pt. C extends a minimum distance of "C" from the tip
end of the board as shown in FIGURE O. The width distance "W"
on either side of Pt. C is given in TABLE 1and shown in FIGURE O.
