SETUP INSTRUCTIONS

Before assembling your product, please take a few minutes to check the contents and become familiar with all the parts.

Site Preparation

1. Select a level area, and completely remove all debris, twigs, stones, etc. DO NOT select an area under overhead electrical lines, trees, or within 15ft (4.57m) of a 

    house, building, etc.

2. The pool shall be located a minimum distance of 6ft (1.83m) from any electrical receptacle.

3. Contact your local utilities, checking that no underground cables, telephone lines, gas lines, etc. run beneath the area you have selected. 

Setup Instructions

1. Carefully unfold the Quick Set

®

 pool and inspect the seams for manufacturing defects. With the inflatable ring on the top side, and safety writing on the outside lay    

    out the pool in the area selected, making sure the bottom of the pool is both flat and round.

2. If your pool includes openings or you are going to purchase a filter pump system, position the Suction & Return fittings so they are 10 to 21 feet from the

    electrical outlet you plan to use for the pump.

 •  If your pool came with Suction & Return Fittings, install both to the pool wall before filling the pool:

          

WARNING

 - DO NOT overfill the pool and/or allow people to lay over or sit on pool wall - DOING SO CAN CAUSE PERMANENT INJURY!

DRAIN pool to the proper level after a heavy rain.

TIP:

 It will be much easier to install your pool if you unfold it and let it lay in direct sunlight for about 2 hours prior to installation. This will help to ensure a

           wrinkle-free fit because the pool material will be more pliable, allowing it to form into shape during installation.

WARNING

 

- VERY IMPORTANT! SITE MUST BE LEVEL, STABLE, COMPACTED SOIL.

• The pool must be assembled on a smooth and level site of firm soil that is free of stones, gravel, sticks, blacktop or other oil-based compounds.
• Before setting up your pool, it is recommended that you clear the area of hardy grasses. Certain types of vigorous grasses such as St. Augustine and Bermuda 
  can grow through the liner. A ground cloth or tarp may be helpful in preventing this from occurring. Grass growing through the liner is not covered under warranty.
• Do not install pool on a wooden deck or any type of wooden surface. You cannot use sand and/or uncompacted soil to provide a level surface for this pool;
  it will only wash out.
• FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL CAUSE POOL TO COLLAPSE AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY!

Please Note: The Black Rubber gasket (Fitting Gasket) should always be slid over the threaded plastic suction or return fitting and be on the inside before the fitting 

is placed through the pool wall to make a watertight connection.

Make sure to put on the Water Cap and/or Service Plug from inside of the pool while you fill your pool without a pump or a filtration system.
