G. Once the top beams are completed, it is time to attach the U-Tube. Sliding each
U-Tube through the bottom additional connected belt first and then assembled
with the beam [A], beam [B] or beam [C]. Repeat this procedure around the pool
in the same direction until all U-Tubes have been connected.
H. Review the assembled pool again and give the pool a shake to make sure all pins
are locked in place.
I. Close and secure the three openings in the pool (the drain valve and the two
fixtures for attaching filter pump hoses). First, make sure that the outer drain plug
is inserted into the outer drain cap is screwed on tightly. then locate the attached
caps inside the pool, and firmly press them into the wall until they snap closed
over their opening. Note: make sure to keep the “bullet” shaped plastic drain
adapter (located in the patch kit) in a safe location in order to drain your pool at
the end of the swim season.
J. Begin filling the pool with about 1 inch of water. Smooth out any wrinkles or
creases in the floor by physically entering the pool. Carefully push out along the
pool floor edge with your foot by going around the pool. Use care not to push too
hard or hit any of the U-Tube with your foot.
K. Once you have removed all wrinkles in the floor, continue filling the pool with
water until the level reaches near the top of the pool. Inspect the pool frequently
to verify it is filling evenly. IMPORTANT: If you notice water collecting
unevenly or excessive sloping to one side, STOP FILLING THE POOL
IMMEDIATELY. This indicates that the ground is not level enough, or that the
wrinkles in the floor have not been properly smoothed out. If this occurs,
completely drain the pool (See section 7 in this manual) and then carefully
CARRY it to a more suitable site.
*IMPORTANT NOTE:
1) Do not be alarmed if the outer walls of your pool appear to be wet, as some
“sweating” (appearance of condensation droplets on the pool) may initially occur
after set-up is complete, especially in cooler climates. This process is completely
normal for this type of pool and does not indicate any leakage. When sweating
does occur it generally stops within 72 hours of filling the pool.

2) Once your pool has been filled with water for the season, take note if your pool
becomes overfilled due to rainwater or accidental overfill. If this should occur, it
is important to drain or bale out the excess water as soon as possible.
