4.4 Decide where the skimmer panel and plumbing will be
located and place the skimmer panel accordingly. Center a
bottom plate on each end of the panel.
Place the next panel symmetrically centered into the
bottom plate, leaving a 1/8” gap between both panels for
the spline to be inserted.
4.5 Slide two 52” splines (#77002) into compression seams to
lock both panels together.
If inserting the splines is difficult:
• apply cooking oil to ease installation.
DO NOT USE
PETROLEUM LUBRICANTS like WD-40
• Ensure there is a uniform 1/8” gap between both panels.
• Check parts are free of any sand or debris.
Repeat this step for all remaining curved side panels.
