Applications & Fitment
This screw set is intended for use with Hayward Auto-Skim Series skimmers and related models that require longer screws to securely attach the face plate or cover. Before installation, verify that your skimmer face plate mounting uses 1¼″ screws and that the original screws are compatible with the replacement set.
Installation Instructions
- Turn off the pool pump and ensure no debris is obstructing the skimmer face plate.
- Remove the old screws from the face plate and inspect the mounting holes for damage.
- Position the new face plate or cover, align mounting holes, and install the SPX1084Z4AM screws until the face plate is snug but not over-tightened.
- Restore pool circulation and verify the face plate is tight and properly seated with no gaps.
Troubleshooting & Maintenance
-
Screw heads strip or spin freely: Ensure the driver matches the screw head type and that screw holes are undamaged.
-
Face plate lifts or is loose: Confirm you used the correct length (1¼″) screws and that the holes are not worn or elongated.
-
Corrosion at screw interface: Replace screws and inspect that the face plate flange is clean and properly sealed.
Maintenance Tip
Each pool season, check face plate screws for tightness and corrosion. Replacing the mounting screws with the SPX1084Z4AM set whenever you service the skimmer helps maintain secure attachment and prevent leaks or misalignment at the skimmer mouth.
