Step 3:
See Figures 3 and 4. Place the required amount of s and in the pool area. Starting at the bottom clip on the
downwind side of the pool, attach the upright slat to the bottom clip. Be sure the machine screw is to the inside of the
pool. Working in a counter clockwise direction slide a wa ll slat onto the upright slat. The wall slat should be held
about 30 degrees from the upright slat wh ile sliding together. Then when seated, rotate the wall slat against the wall
angle. The skimmer slat should be located between the fi rst two round side upright slats as you work around the
pool. Do not locate the skimmer under the patio. The return slat must be located within 15 panels to the left of the
skimmer as you face the pool.
Be careful not to let the wall fall over during assembly. The walls must remain plumb. If the wall falls over,
disassemble fallen section and start again.
.
After the pool wall is assembled, check the dimensions of the pool to insure that it has not shifted during assembly.
Step 4:
See Figure 5 and Detail 5a. Install the skimmer throat gasket to each side of the pool wall and attach the
skimmer to the wall as shown using hardware provided with the skimmer. Mount the skimme r at the center with only
two (2) pan head screws at this point. Refer to skimmer instruction sheet.
Loosen the nuts from the bottom clip / upright slat attachment. If you are installing a walk deck on this pool
Do Not completely remove the nut from the bolt. You will need this bolt to attach the walk deck posts.
CAUTION:
Installation of the wall
in any other
manner than precisely described above will cause
extensive damage to the pool and may result in
injury or death to those people in or around your
pool.

for
installation addendums.
Step 2:
See Figure 1 and
2. Mark line “2” as shown in
the table on page 3. Create
a circle on line “2” by sliding
the wall channels into the
bottom clips. Place a 2”
thick patio block under each
bottom clip. If the bottom
wall channel is
on soft
ground, place additional
blocks in a pyramidal shape
under the bottom clips for
support. Also
place
additional blocks under the
wall channel where needed.
Dig 2” down for each block.
The top of the top block
must be at grade level
.
Place a stake adjacent to
each wall channel to keep
