2. Attach Reel Ends: Securely attach the solar reel mechanisms (end supports) to each end of the assembled tube kit using the provided hardware. Ensure they are tightly fastened.

6. Інструкція з експлуатації

• To Remove the Solar Cover: Turn the crank handle on the reel system clockwise (or counter-clockwise, depending on setup) to smoothly roll the solar cover onto the tube. Ensure the cover rolls evenly to prevent wrinkles or damage.
• To Deploy the Solar Cover: Gently pull the leading edge of the solar cover across the pool surface. The reel system will unwind, allowing the cover to spread out. Guide the cover to ensure it lays flat and covers the entire pool surface.
• After rolling up the cover, you can detach the reel system from the pool edge and move it to a storage area if desired, thanks to its portable design (if applicable to your specific tube kit with wheels).

7. Технічне обслуговування

• The reel system features a durable, non-corrosive construction, requiring minimal maintenance.
• Periodically inspect all fasteners and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure.
• Clean the reel system components with mild soap and water as needed to remove dirt or debris.
• During off-season storage, clean and dry all components thoroughly before storing in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

8. Вирішення проблем

• Cover not rolling smoothly: Check for tangled straps, uneven attachment of the cover to the straps, or debris obstructing the reel mechanism. Ensure the tube kit is properly aligned and not bent.
• Reel system feels unstable: Verify that the socket mounts are securely attached to the pool's top rail or deck. Ensure all screws and bolts are tightened.
• Straps detaching from cover: Re-secure the clips to the solar cover. Consider reinforcing the attachment points on the cover if repeated detachment occurs.
