This is on page 15 of the manual I linked. Coverstars Touch Screen Pool Cover Controller is the operator for your automatic safety cover. If the clutch is slipping due to the reasons above, fix the problem, don't adjust the slip clutch. Water on the cover, low pool water level, bad track pulleys, and dirt or debris in the track can all cause the clutch to slip. Once you have the cover moving well on its own, then the next thing I would check is the slip clutch: 'Make sure there is nothing interfering with the cover operation before adjusting the slip clutch.

If it hasn't been used in a while one or more of the pulleys could be frozen and creating too much friction. Pool Cover Specialists Automatic Swimming Pool Covers and. I would do at least a partial manual close/open to check the ease of moving the cover and ropes through the tracks and pulleys. Prepare the pool cover pump: Read and follow the pool cover pump manufacturers instructions. If the shifting dogs do not engage each other, the pool cover can not move. If you do have a sheared pin, then it would seem that your cover ropes might be stuck or too tight which caused the shear pin to break protecting your gears and pulleys. Check the shifting dogs (or shifting gears) for accurate alignment. I know it sucks and I'm not saying you might not find a jack-legged solution to the problem.but sometimes you just gotta pay to fix it right.You are lucky that the motor is running well it appears - Check if you have a shear pin as others have mentioned above (Not sure a T3 does - mine is a T3 also). I'm not a service tech or anything like that, I just have one of these covers and had a problem last year with that double dog collar slipping and the service tech showed me how it worked when he was fixing the problem.

I'm not sure your contractors solution would work either since they state that the pin is hardened so drilling, tapping, and reconnecting the pin would be difficult. Remco Swimroll Pool Covers provide a supportive and secure surface, ensuring outstanding pool safety. Having won major design awards, not only is it super stylish, but it’s performance and functionality is simply unparalleled. Not sure what exact model you have and/or how old it is but if you look at this manual below on page 6 it shows a parts diagram and looks like your part is 080196.which they state is a hardened part that is press fit and not 'easily replaceable as individual part'.and goes on to say that you have to order the shaft assembly, either left or right. The fully automatic Swimroll Below Ground Pool Cover System is the ultimate pool cover solution.

The gear assembly is one of the most important parts of the cover motor mechanism. It's reversible gears allow the motor to open and close without any trouble. This stainless steel Double Dog makes the cover’s gears turn to open and close the cover. If you are thinking about dropping the pin back in and then doing a couple of tac welds to keep it from falling out I don't think that will work because that 'double dog collar' needs to cam back and forth. This Coverstar Double Dog Drive Shaft Assembly is part of the mechanism attached to the motor. I realize this is only somewhat pool (water) related but maybe someone else out there had this type of pool cover gearing failure and can share experience? I am sure if we contact a pool company out here in Seattle they will only suggest something like disassembling the whole thing and/or replacing it. I thought perhaps we could drop in the old bolt and give it a small weld that would be permanent. I'm a bit concerned about the permanence of drilling a new hole in that steel rod. He thinks the simplest long term fix is to re-drill a hole elsewhere on that connecting rod and the rod inside of it, tap it, and then screw the right sized screw into the new hole. Our contractor who is renovating the house tried to use some type of adhesive in there to hold it in the hole as a temp fix but it failed.

The bolt can be dropped back in and it will work once and then fall out. We have a 'save t cover' motorized pool cover and recently a bolt sheared off which connects the motor to a rod that spins and unspins the cover. With its reversible gears it allows the motor to open and close without any trouble.
