Swimming Pool Diving Board Replacement
ID: 167953
Description: A diving board can become worn out over time,...
Steps:
- Using a ratchet, 5/16" Allen hex socket, and 3/4" box wrench, unscrew the fastener where the diving board meets the top of the spring.
- Use a ratchet and 15/16" short socket to unthread the 4 hex head fasteners from the fiber glass base.
- After 4 nylock hex head fasteners have been removed, lift the fiber glass base from the 4 threaded studs that are protruding from the concrete.
- Remove 2 fasteners where the diving board meets the fiber glass base using the 5/16" Allen hex socket and the 3/4" hex nylock nut.
- Set the base and board on a stable elevated surface like a table to make it easy to access the parts under the base.
- To attach the new diving board, fasten the fiber glass base to the diving board using button head bolts, washers, gaskets, and nylock nuts.
- Do not fasten the board to the fiber glass base too tightly as jumping on it while it is too tight can overload the diving board.
- Mount the base with the new diving board back onto the 4 threaded studs protruding from the ground.
- Thread the 15/16" nylock nuts and washers onto stud anchors.
- Using a ratchet, 5/16" Allen hex socket, and 3/4" box wrench, screw on the fastener where the diving board meets the top of the spring.
