INTRODUCTION
The WetDek is designed for use as a residential splash pad. Proper installation, use, and maintenance
are essential for optimal performance and to reduce the risk of accident or injury. These instructions are
developed and intended for use with either the stand alone or poolside versions of the WetDek with 6, 9,
or 12 nozzles.

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, as improper
installation voids S.R. Smith's warranty and may affect the safety of the user.
