CLOSING THE WALL
4
Insert the 1/4" - 20x3/4" truss head
screws from inside the pool through the
preattached inside closure bar, through
inside and outside wall ends, and through
outside closure bar.
The 1/4" serrated flange nuts are secured
to the screws on the outside of the wall. All
the holes must match and be secured
together with the screws and nuts provided.
Tighten each screw and nut to 85 inch
pounds of torque. If no torque wrench is
available, tighten each nut until snug. Then
tighten each nut one (1/2) half additional
turn. If nut appears to be lose after tighten-
ing, please check if the screw is stripped or
broken. It must be replaced.
Overtightening the nuts could cause the screws to fracture which could result in pool failure.
Failure to tighten the nuts sufficiently could also result in pool failure.
This is one of the most important structural assembly aspects you will perform.
Be absolutely sure you have assembled the wall as shown above for your pool.
Manufacturer can not assume the responsibility of the performance of this product if the
instructions of closing the wall are not followed exactly.

During this assembly procedure,
make sure that one washer is on
the inside of the pool, and one
washer in on the outside of the
pool sandwiching the two wall
ends between them. Also ensure
that the recesses of the walls and
washers all face the same direction.
Align the holes in the wall ends.
From the inside of the pool, insert a 3/8 Truss Head screw
through the washer, through the holes on the inside and
outside wall ends, and through the second washer.
Fasten with 3/8 serrated flange nut on the outside of the
pool having the flange of the nut face the washer. Only hand
tighten the nuts at this point. Continue for each hole in the wall
ends.
