Check that the bottom framework of your pool is perfectly round by measuring the distance between the
central stake and the rails at various points. Bring the required amount of sifted earth or prewashed sand
into the pool area at this time. Refer to chart above for the required amount. On the 36" and 42" models
the actual diameter of the 12 ft round pool is 11' 7½".

INSERT WALL INTO BOTTOM RAIL
Remove wall from carton.
Note the UP arrow on wall.
Determine starting point as the fil-
ter inlet and outlet holes are at the
beginning of the wall. Starting at the
center of a bottom plate insert the
bottom edge of wall into the groove
on the bottom rail. Make sure that
the cutouts for filter inlet and outlet
are on the top portion of the wall and
will not be hidden behind a vertical.
If the wall ends do not meet, adjust
the bottom rail in or out of the bot-
tom plates. The spacing in all bottom
plates should be equal.
