a) Place the liner (L) in the centre of the swimming pool and
unfold it towards the sides (place the rough side towards the
upside and the flat side down). The welded part that joins the
base of the liner to the side of the pool must perfectly aligned
and match the low profiles of the pool (fig.21), all around the
inside perimeter at the bottom of the swimming pool.
b) Locate the side welding (SL) so that it’s perfectly right and
perpendicular to the ground. This will help you to place the
liner without folds. Pull away softly all the excess of the liner
and don’t pull it too hard. The liner must be centred, well
extended and not wrinkled. Cover the upper edges of the pool
(the steel wall and the wooden slats) with clothespins (fig. 22).
Remove the excess.
c) To remove the excess of wrinkles in the base, don’t wear
shoes,
and extend the liner towards the sides with your hands and feet.
Flatten the liner and start filling the pool with water, but no more
than 2 cm approx. Take the time to do it properly and for the liner
to be free of wrinkles.
d) Once the base hasn’t got any wrinkle, ADD MORE WATER
(approx.10 cm under the hole of the return valve).
DON’T FILL
THE POOL COMPLETELY YET.
While the pool is getting full of
water, stretch the sides of the pool up to tighten it the most. The
water pressure will fix the liner to the wall.
IMPORTANT:
CHECK THE WATER DISTRIBUTES EQUALLY.
If there
were any puddles, that means that the ground has hollows. If the
water accumulates in a side, means that the area is unbalanced.
IN THIS CASE, THE POOL MUST BE EMPTIED AND
DISASSEMBLED COMPLETELY TO START FROM THE
BEGINNING, THE GROUND WILL HAVE TO BE WELL
LEVELLED.

11. INSTALLATION OF THE PLASTIC PROFILES (P)
1- The plastic profiles (P) are linked together by the connecting pipes (P2).
Take a profile and insert two connecting tubes (P2) by the end of the
profile. Enter the tubes half way. Take another profile and press the 2
profiles together strongly (fig. 24)
2- Place the 2 profiles (already linked) against the metallic guide (M) that
holds the wooden slats and make it match the joint of the metal guides
(shown in the picture Fig. 25 with an arrow) with the centre of the plastic
profile (P). This will make the link more solid.
