SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND
REVIEW THEM REGULARLY.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS
Safety information
The Covana cover was designed, tested and certified
to be installed over a residential hot tub (spa) and
under important installation instructions issued by
Covana. Any other type of usage will void the
warranty and product certification.
The extra load maximum weight provided in the
specification section of this manual is a provision for
environmental outcomes, such as some snow or
damp leaves that could accumulate on the cover, that
are evenly distributed on the surface of the cover.
The Covana cover was not designed to support any
additional load or people walking or standing on its lid.
Failure to observe this instruction will void the cover’s
warranty and nullify its certification.
The power safety cover meets ASTM F1346-91
requirements.
DANGER
To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children
to use this product unless they are supervised at
all times.
Failure to follow all instructions may result in injury
or even death.
Do not allow people to climb on the cover at any
time.
Do not allow children to have access to the
Covana cover without supervision.
Never operate the Covana cover until all people
and objects are out of the spa.
Lower the COVANA cover in extreme wind
conditions such as gusts of 30 mph (50 km/h) in
the raised position.
WARNING
Be sure to keep the key switch and the key out of
the reach of children.
Do not put any type of fabric or plastic sheet, such
as a tarpaulin, on the Covana cover. This could
overheat the cover and result in deformation or
delamination of the cover.
Inspect the cover periodically. It should raise
smoothly and evenly. Contact your Covana dealer
if any unusual sound is heard during use.
Never use any type of pressure washer or buffer
to clean any surface of the Covana cover. This
could result in premature wear or damage.
DO
Remove the control key after operating the
Covana cover. Store the key in a secure location
when not in use. Users must bring the control key
in the hot tube with them to prevent unauthorized
operation of the cover.
Never leave the key in the key switch.
Check the cover frequently for signs of
deterioration.
Have any repairs, adjustments or mechanical work
performed by your authorized COVANA dealer as
soon as possible should you notice a malfunction.
Close the cover when it is not in use or if the hot
tub is not being monitored.
A COVANA cover should only be operated by an
adult.
This appliance can be used by children aged 8
years and above and persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge ONLY if they are
supervised or have received instructions regarding
safe use of the cover. Children must not play with
the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance
must not be performed by children without
supervision.
DO NOT
Operate the unit before all mechanical and
electrical connections are completed.
Step on or stack anything on the COVANA
operator cover.
Operate the Covana cover while somebody is in
the hot tub.
Climb, walk or stand on the Covana cover at any
time.
INSTALLATION MANUAL 5
Leave the Covana cover open for more than
12 hours. This could cause the cover to warp over
time.
Converge or directly reflect sunlight on the cover.
This could cause permanent damage.
Wash the cover with harsh chemicals or cleaners.
Use a pressure washer to clean any component of
the COVANA cover. This could result in premature
wear or damage.
Use an extension cord to connect the Covana
cover to its power source. The cord may not be
properly grounded, and the connection is a shock
hazard. An extension cord may cause a voltage
drop, which would cause the motor to overheat.
CAUTION
Be sure to follow all instructions in this manual and
use only COVANA-approved accessories and
tools.
Do not roll the Covana cover onto its side or slide
it on its side. This will damage the siding.
After removing a part, always place it in a safe
place on a clean and level surface to ensure
proper functionality.
All four posts of the COVANA cover must be
properly anchored to the foundation using the
anchoring holes located at the foot of each post.
The optional non-permanent mounting plates can
be used when anchoring is not possible, but under
strict condition. See Non-permanent mounting
plates installation section on Installation Manual
for further details.
This product mainly contains steel, plastic, copper
(Cu), fiberglass, foam and die-cast aluminum (Al).
The gearbox contains oil and other materials.
Please recycle them properly.
Both the up and down limit switches are pre-
adjusted at the factory. The down-limit switch
should never be re-adjusted. The up-limit switch
should be re-adjusted only to reduce the maximum
height of the cover to avoid possible contact with
its surroundings. Please refer to the Limit Switch
Adjustment section in this manual before making
any adjustments. An improper adjustment can
result in damage to the drive system and/or cover.
Avoiding the risk of electrocution
ELECTRICAL DANGER
Failure to comply with these instructions may
result in death by electrocution or serious injury.
Disconnect or turn off and secure all power
supplies before starting any intervention on the
COVANA cover.
A disconnect mean needs to be incorporated into
the fixed wiring at the time of installation. This
mean must be accessible to the user or service
technician to turn the power off for future
maintenance or repair.
Always have a licensed electrical contractor
perform any electrical maintenance or repairs on
the COVANA cover. The wiring must comply with
all applicable local electrical codes and
regulations.
The COVANA operator must be connected to a
circuit that is protected by a dedicated ground-fault
circuit-interrupter (GFCI) that complies with all
applicable local electrical codes and regulations.
Install the COVANA cover in such a way that
drainage directs water away from the electrical
and base mechanical components.
Do not connect any auxiliary components to the
electrical system of the COVANA cover unless
they have been approved by COVANA.
Replace electrical components with original
components provided or approved by COVANA.
Ask your dealer for replacement parts.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace all
damaged electrical cables immediately. Failure to
do so may result in death or serious personal injury
due to electrocution.
Do not bury any electrical cables. A buried power
may result in death, or serious personal injury due
to electrocution if direct burial-type cable is not
used, or if improper digging occurs.
ELECTRICAL WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, the green-
colored terminal or the terminal marked “g,” “gr,”
“ground,” “grounding” or with a ⏚ symbol that is
located inside the supply terminal box or
compartment must be connected to the grounding
means provided in the electric supply service
panel with a continuous copper wire equivalent in
size to the circuit conductors supplying the
equipment.
6 INSTALLATION MANUAL
Two lugs marked “bonding lugs” are provided on
the external surface or on the inside of the supply
terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, connect the local common bonding
grid in the area of the COVANA cover. Use
terminals with an insulated or bare copper
conductor not smaller than No. 6 AWG (4.11 mm).
All field-installed metal components, such as rails,
ladders, drains or other similar hardware, within
10 ft. (3 m) of the hot tub must be bonded to the
equipment grounding bus with copper conductors
not smaller than No. 6 AWG (4.11 mm). (NEC art.
680.)
WARNING REGARDING DRUG OR
ALCOHOL USE
The use of drugs or alcohol while operating the
COVANA cover is strictly prohibited. The
impairment of judgement, vision or hearing might
affect the safety of other people or result in death.
WARNING REGARDING
MODIFICATIONS TO THE COVANA
COVER
Any modifications to the COVANA cover, such as
mechanical, electrical or aesthetic ones, may
cause the cover to operate in an unwanted or
dangerous way. Furthermore, these modifications
might void the warranty and certification.
The COVANA cover was designed, tested and
certified for the sole purpose of covering and
securing a spa. Any installation that differs in
whole or in part from this purpose will void the
warranty and certifications.
