waterway SGMS Floor Sweep
Product Information
The SGMS (Spa Grommet Mounting System) is a component used for installing grommets in spa walls. It is designed to securely hold grommets in place, providing a reliable seal and preventing leaks.
Product Usage Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the spa wall
Clean and dry the area where the grommet will be installed. Ensure there are
no obstructions or debris that may affect the installation process.
Step 2: Install the grommet
Take the grommet and press it into place on the spa wall. Make sure the flange
of the grommet bottoms out against the wall for a secure fit.
Step 3: Lubricate the grommet and SGMS component
Using window cleaner or a suitable lubricant, apply a thin layer of
lubrication to both the grommet and the SGMS component. This will help
facilitate smooth installation and prevent any sticking or binding.
Step 4: Set the SGMS Component
Position the SGMS component at the desired orientation and press it into the
grommet. Ensure it fits securely. To further secure the SGMS fitting, use the
appropriate size SGMS installation tool alongwith a rubber mallet.
Step 5: Tap the SGMS fitting into position
Gently tap the SGMS fitting into position using the rubber mallet. Continue
tapping until the fitting is fully inserted and flush with the grommet flange.
This will ensure a tight seal and proper installation.
Please note that these instructions are a general guideline. Refer to the
specific product manual for any additional steps or precautions.
Installation Instructions
-
Location of SGMS Fitting
SGMS fittings must be located on a flat surface with no curves or bends, within ½” from the outer diameter of SGMS fitting. Mark desired center of component on spa wall.
-
Drilling
Drill a ¼” pilot hole before using a hole saw to prevent chipping on the spa wall with the hole saw. Using the correct hole saw, drill the hole so that the drill is straight and perpendicular to the spa wall as possible (See attached Drill Guide). Clean debris in and around hole with a rag.
-
Installing the Grommet
Press the grommet into place so that the flange bottoms out against the spa wall. See Figure 3.
