INTRODUCTION

DANGER – FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS, INSTRUCTIONS AND THE

OWNER’S MANUAL MAY RESULT IN SEROUS INJURY OR DEATH

THE VORTEX™ SLIDE IS DESIGNED AND MANUFACTURED FOR INSTALLATION AND USE ON

INGROUND SWIMMING POOLS ONLY. DO NOT INSTALL THE VORTEX SLIDE ON ABOVE

GROUND POOLS, HOUSEBOATS, BOAT DOCKS, FLOATING DOCKS OR PLATFORMS, OR OTHER

BODIES OF WATER SUCH AS LAKES, PONDS, RIVERS, ETC. PROPER ASSEMBLY,

INSTALLATION, USE, AND SUPERVISION IS ESSENTIAL FOR PROPER OPERATION AND TO

REDUCE THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

ALL NATIONAL AND LOCAL BUILDING CODES MUST BE FOLLOWED. THIS INCLUDES ANY

APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS FOR SIZE OF CONCRETE FOOTING, OVERALL HEIGHT OF SLIDE,

AND BONDING OR ELECTRICAL CODES.

CHECK INSIDE ALL BOXES AND PACKAGING MATERIALS FOR PARTS. BEFORE BEGINNING

ASSEMBLY, READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND IDENTIFY PARTS USING THE FIGURES AND PARTS

LISTED IN THIS DOCUMENT. IT IS CRITICAL THAT ALL PARTS BE CAREFULLY INSPECTED BY

THE INSTALLER PRIOR TO INSTALLATION TO ENSURE THAT NO DAMAGE OCCURRED IN

TRANSIT AND THAT A DAMAGED PART IS NOT USED. PROPER INSTALLATION CANNOT BE

OVERSTRESSED, IMPROPER INSTALLATION VOIDS S.R. SMITH’S WARRANTY AND MAY

AFFECT THE SAFETY OF THE USER.

PRECAUTION: POWDER COATING IS SCRATCH RESISTANT, NOT SCRATCH PROOF. IT IS STILL

SUSCEPTIBLE TO SCRATCHING AND CHIPPING. THIS SHOULD BE PREVENTED BECAUSE

EXPOSED METAL SURFACES WILL RUST.

PRECAUTION: CONTACT YOUR POOL PROFESSIONAL TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE

ADEQUATE ACCESS TO YOUR POOL PUMP HOUSE FOR THE WATER SUPPLY. IT IS STRONGLY

RECOMMENDED THAT THE WATER LINE BE PULLED FROM THE SWIMMING POOL RETURN

LINE SO THAT THE CIRCULATED WATER IS SANITARY AND DOES NOT AFFECT THE

CHEMISTRY OF THE POOL.

INSTALLER MUST GIVE TO SLIDE OWNER: VORTEX SLIDE INSTALLATION AND OWNER’S

MANUAL, THE WARRANTY CARD, AND ANSWER ALL QUESTIIONS REGARDING SAFE AND

PROPER USE AND SLIDE MAINTENACE.

WARNING SIGN MUST BE MOUNTED NEAR SLIDE ENTRANCE. SIGN SHOULD BE LOCATED

WITHIN 2 FEET OF THE ENTRANCE OF THE SLIDE AND MUST POINT AWAY FROM ENTRANCE

SO THAT IT IS VISIBLE AT LEAST 10 FEET FROM SLIDE.

FOR COMPLETE SLIDE SAFETY INFORMATION REFER TO THE OWNER’S MANUAL.

INSTALLED VORTEX STRUCTURAL & INSTALLATION CHECKLIST

(INSTALLER TO REVIEW WITH SLIDE OWNER UPON COMPLETION

OF SLIDE INSTALLATION)

1. INSPECT THE RUNWAY FOR VISIBLE CRACKS OR TEARS.

2. INSPECT THE SLIDE FOR SHARP EDGES, PROTRUSIONS, CRACKS OR TEARS.

3. INSPECT ALL FASTENERS TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE FULLY TIGHTENED.

4. INSPECT THE LADDER FOR RIGIDITY AND ATTACHMENT.

5. MEASURE THE FOLLOWING DIMENSIONS AND COMPARE WITH THE MANUFACTURER’S

PLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS ON PAGES 38 AND 39.

•MEASURE THE DEPTH OF WATER IN FRONT OF THE SLIDE EXIT. (4’-6” MIN.

DEPTH AT A DISTANCE OF 4’-6” FROM EXIT END OF SLIDE.)

•MEASURE THE HEIGHT OF THE SLIDE RUNWAY EXIT ABOVE THE WATER. (20”

MAX.)

•MEASURE THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE SLIDE CENTERLINE AND THE EDGE

OF OTHER POOL EQUIPMENT.

6. OBSERVE THE POSITION OF THE EXIT OF THE SLIDE AS SHOWN IN FIGURES 33, 34 AND

36 ON PAGES 38 AND 39.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

1. PERIODICALLY INSPECT THE VORTEX TO ASSURE THERE ARE NO WORN PARTS AND

THAT ALL HARDWARE IS PROPERLY TIGHTENED. REPLACE ANY HARDWARE WHICH

EXHIBITS RUST OR CORROSION.

2. ALL SLIDE COMPONENTS REQUIRE PERIODIC MAINTENANCE. CLEAN COMPONENTS

WITH A COTTON CLOTH AND A NON-ABRASIVE SOAP AND WATER. AVOID HARSH

CHEMICALS AND DISINFECTANTS.

3. ALWAYS READ THE LABEL INSTRUCTIONS ON ANY CLEANER CAREFULLY BEFORE

APPLYING IT TO A SURFACE.

4. INSPECT THE PLUMBING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS. FREEZE/THAW CYCLES MAY CAUSE

LEAKS AT PLUMBING JOINTS WHICH SHOULD BE REPAIRED PRIOR TO USE.

5. CHECK ALL SAFETY LABELS TO INSURE THEY HAVE NOT PEELED OR BEEN REMOVED.

CONTACT S.R. SMITH CUSTOMER SERVICE (800-824-4397) FOR REPLACEMENT LABELS.

6. THE SUPPORT STRUCTURE IS MADE FROM STEEL, IS PRIMED AND POWDER COATED

WITH A HIGH QUALITY ACRYLIC URETHANE FINISH. HOWEVER, CORROSION MAY

OCCUR DEPENDING ON WATER CHEMISTRY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.

INSPECT THE SLIDE ON A SEMI-ANNUAL BASIS, SAND AND REPAIR ANY SURFACE

RUST. FOR TOUCH-UP PAINT (PN # 09-819-1), CONTACT S.R. SMITH CUSTOMER

SERVICE (800-824-4397).

CAUTION: BECAUSE THIS PRODUCT IS MANUFACTURED FROM STEEL, PLACEMENT ON A

POOL WITH A SALT CHLORINE GENERATOR WILL REQUIRE FREQUENT INSPECTION AND

MAINTENANCE DUE TO THE CORROSIVE NATURE OF THESE SYSTEMS WITH ALL STEEL

ALLOYS. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL SLIDE COMPONENTS BE RINSED DAILY WITH

FRESH WATER.

VORTEX SLIDE RUNWAY ASSEMBLY

1) First, insert all five of the Branch Arms (4) into the Main Support (5). Ensure that the arms slide

into the support sockets without damaging the powder coating. Align the holes in the main tube

support with the holes in the branch arm and attach using the hardware shown in Figure 1. The

required hardware is as follows: ½” – 13 x 5” Hex Head Cap Screw (15), ½” Flat Washer (17),

½” Nylon Washer (22), and ½” Nylon Washer (22), ½” Flat Washer (17), ½” Lock Washer (18),

½” Hex Nut (20) on the other side of the support. It is important not to tighten the hardware at

this point. ANTI-SEIZE NEEDS TO BE USED ON ALL BOLTS, and should be applied to the

threading before attempting to place the nut on the bolt.

2) The image on the right shows the main

tube support with all branch arms installed.

Place the column close to the installation

location.

3) Before working with the flume pieces,

cover the concrete with cardboard or carpet to

help prevent scratching the plastic slide

components. Order of assembly is important!

Each of the slide components is numbered in

the order that they should be assembled. See

Figure 6 for order of assembly. Assemble the

Exit Flume (3) and the Runway Section (2) labeled

B1 together as shown. Install the hardware

through both side rails as shown in Figure 6.

The hardware used for this step, in order of

assembly, is as follows: 3/8”-16 x 4” Button Head

Cap Screw S/S (11), 3/8” Flat Washer (24), 3/8”

Flat Washer (24), 3/8” Lock Washer (25), 3/8” Hex

Nut S/S (26). Tighten the hardware until snug.

Note: Be sure to apply anti-seize to all

fasteners to prevent galling.

4) Next, flip over the two connected pieces of the runway. Place the Exit Support (6)

under the Exit Flume (3), as shown in Figure 7. Use the following hardware to attach the exit

support: 3/8”-16 x 2” Hex Head Bolt (7), 3/8” Flat Washer (24), 3/8” Nylon Washer (23), 3/8” Flat

Washer (24), 3/8” Lock Washer (25), 3/8” Hex Nut (26). Tighten the hardware until snug.

Note: Be sure to apply anti-seize to all fasteners to prevent galling.

5) Position the slide on the deck such that the slide meets the requirements as given in the

Manufacturer’s Placement Instructions on page 31. Make sure that the slide parts are correctly

positioned on the branch arms. It is recommended that bolts be placed temporarily through the

runway parts and into the first and second branch arms to ensure proper alignment. Once the

assembly is in the correct position, mark the locations for exit support anchors. In addition, make

reference marks at the corners of the main tube support flange to ensure that it remains in the

desired position. Remove the flume sections and drill the anchor holes for both the Main Support (5)

and the Exit Support (6). Drill the two 3/8” diameter X 2” deep holes in the marked locations for the

exit support. The holes in the main support tube flange may be used as a template for drilling the

1/2” diameter X 2-1/4“deep holes. Follow the instruction on page 23 and install the concrete wedge

anchors for the exit support and the main tube support.

6) Place the assembled Exit Flume (3) and Runway Section (2) over the first Branch

Arm (6). Attach the slide sections to the first branch arm as shown above. The required hardware

is as follows: 3/8”-16 x 5.5” Hex Head Cap Screw (8), 3/8” Flat Washer (21), 3/8” Nylon Washer

(23), 3/8” Flat Washer (21), 3/8” Lock Washer (25), and a 3/8” Hex Nut (26). Do not completely

tighten the hardware at this point.

Note: Be sure to apply anti-seize to all fasteners to prevent galling.
