Assembling the Buttresses (Straight Section)
a)
Assemble one upright channel (key 1) with two T-plates (key 2 and 3) and
one L-plate (key 4) (one each of sizes short, medium and tall) on one side using
eight bolts (key 5) and nuts (key 6). The bolt heads should be on the outside of
the T- and L-plates and the nuts on the inside of the upright channel. Do not
tighten the bolts yet. Be sure to
follow the drawing carefully to have the T- and L-plates and upright channel
facing the right direction (the T-plates each have a radiused corner; this radi-
used corner must FACE AWAY from the open side of the
upright channel).

b)
Repeat step (a) for the other side of the upright channel with three more
T- and L-plates.
c)
Insert the upright channel and T- and L-plate assembly into a base U-chan-
nel (key 7). The open side of the upright channel will face toward the inside of
the pool. Line up the holes and fasten with twenty bolts (key 5) and nuts (key
6). Do not tighten the bolts yet.

First, tighten the eight bolts and nuts on each side of the
upright channel. Second, tighten the four bolts and nuts on
each side of the base U-channel. Lastly, tighten all the rest
of the bolts and nuts (see image 2.27 and 2.28).
Important:
for a proper fit, you must push the T- and L-
plates against the upright channel while tightening the bolts
and nuts
