General Notes

1. It is recommended that all pipe joints be secured with self-drilling screws. Recommended screws are listed in the parts lists.

2. Pipe fittings with the potential to trap air should have drain/vent holes drilled with 1/4” or larger drill bits.

3. Pipe fitting specifications vary from one manufacturer to the next. The assembled sizes of structures could vary from the dimensions listed in this guide due to these differences. You may need to adjust the pipe lengths slightly as you construct the assemblies to ensure mating assemblies line up.

4. Anything requiring buoyancy needs to be tested and adjusted for the pool that the course will be used in.

5. Objects that must be lifted and transported have been weighed in air and in water. Weights may vary slightly in the pool that the course will be used in.

6. If the course is set on the pool floor, then it may be helpful to use weights on the platforms to keep the platforms from being moved by the ROVs during competition.
