Next, attach the adjustable A-brace to one of the bottom holes of the panel flange. A nut and
bolt must be used in every flange hole for polymer panels. When tightening the panels joints,
make sure that the top and front facing (inside of the pool) portion of these panels are
flush/level with each other once joined. The backside of the panels do not need to touch and
may not; this is common due to design. Hand tighten the top and bottom bolts first while
checking for proper alignment. When the panels are flush, hand tighten the remaining nuts and
bolts. Use the corner to help stabilize the entire wall assembly by alternating the panels
assembled in each direction/side. Use stakes and rope to hold the straight wall panels straight
during construction if needed.
Once the panels are all assembled, your steps are in place (if applicable), and there are no
further adjustments needed, you can now go back and tighten all the bolts at the panel joints.
Be careful not to over tighten them as this can cause the panels to be pulled from their current
placement and thereby change your measurements.
EXAMPLE OF A POLMER WALL PANEL WITH BRACE
*If using radius polymer panels with flex design, see Appendix A: Polymer Panels on page 57.
TIP
For Steel Wall Panels: The use of A-frame braces is
optional
where a rectangle corner panel
connects with a straight wall panel.
The corner A-frames are not included unless they are ordered with the kit.
