1a - Place the wooden posts in the metal base. There are short (PS1) and long metal bases (PS2).
Make sure that they are placed in the correct position.
1b - Put the bottom row of planks into position. If the tongues which correctly align the planks when interlocked, are missing or
have minor flaws, this will not in any way affect the mechanical strength of the wood, its durability or the assembling of the pool.
1c - Hold these planks in place using upright metal plates (at right angles). Secure with 12x160 japy bolts at the bottom but do
not tighten up.
1d - Place a standard length temporary plank along each edge of the pool basin. Secure using 12x120 japy bolts. Tighten up all the
bolts (top and bottom).
1e - To imperatively check alignment of wedges (chalk line) and diagonals (10 m ribbon); A = B
1f -
1st case scenario: the plinth does not obstruct the drill:
Drill the central hole (8 mm in diameter), drive in the anchoring pins and tighten up.
1g - Drill the remaining holes (20 mm in diameter), drive in the anchoring pins and tighten up. Repeat the process on each plinth.
1h -
2nd case scenario: the plinth is obstructing the drill:
Mark in the position of the holes with paint or felt tip pen.
1i - Remove the post and its plinth, drill the holes, reposition, drive in the anchoring pins and tighten. Repeat the process on each plinth.
- Installation of angle junction in reinforced steel
- Installation of angle junction
1j - Unscrew the upper and lower japy bolts and take down the temporary top planks.
Fit the planks together using the sacrifice part provided for this purpose.
1k - Put the japy bolts in place.
1l - Position the planks for the backwash inlet on the 8th row opposite the skimmers.
1m - Place the plank where the pool cleaner point will be on the 8th row, in the middle of the pool. Position the lower then the
upper skimmer planks on the side of the pool opposite the backwash inlets.
1n - Position the 2 remaining standard length planks and the upper planks along the edge of the pool.
1o - Check the alignment of the lower and upper skimmer planks.
1p - Tighten up all the Japy bolts (bolts in bag J for the metal plinths and bolts in bag K for the upper section of the post).
1q - Do the preparation for drilling the upper planks, taking account of the measurements.
1r – Nail the finishing strips to the posts.
2a - Position the horizontal reinforcements level with the upper edge on the exterior of the structure. Make level and screw together from the pool interior, until screw heads
to not protrude.
2b - Pre-drill 3 holes of 6 mm (on the corners).
2c - Widen the holes to a depth of 45 mm using a flat 12 mm drill bit and screw in using three 6x90 screws.
2d - Pre-drill three 6 mm holes and screw into the corners.
2e - Put the brackets in place, taking account of the top-bottom direction, mark in where they are going, drill and screw in until the screw heads are fully embedded.
2f - Screw in the horizontal reinforcement with the consoles.
3a - Screw the skimmer vent into the upper plank using 2 round headed screws which you will find in the bag of screws supplied in the skimmer box.
3b - Install the outer square seal for the skimmer and the skimmer itself.
3c - Fix the whole unit into place using 8 round headed screws which you will find in the bag of screws supplied in the skimmer box, tightening really well to ensure it is completely
waterproof. (Screw in manually)
3d - Waterproof seals. Fit a rectangular seal onto each skimmer frame, ensuring that they are fully bonded. At the backwash inlets and where the pool cleaner point will go, fit the cork
seal so that it is in contact with the side panel then fit one of the 2 round white seals on top of it, ensuring that they are fully bonded.
3e - Drill the tracks according to the measurements (3 cm from the ends and then approximately every 20 cm).
3f - Unroll the wall felt.
3g - Place the plastic track flat on to the felt underlay, flush with the upper plank.
3h - Screw in the first length of track for the liner using 4x40 stainless steel screws.
3i - At the corners, make a V-shaped partial cut in the track so that you can bend the edge of it to fit into the corners. Screw in on both sides of the corner 3cm out, then screw in all the tracks.
3j - Cut the felt underlay out on the outside of the skimmer frame.
3k - Do the same for the backwash inlet and the automatic pool cleaner point.
SUMMARY:
- Erecting the sides of the pool
- Positioning the supports and the brackets
- Preparing the sides of the pool
- Installing the felt underlay and the liner
- Cutting the liner, fitting the backwash inlet
nozzle and the skimmer
- Installing pine coping
- The ladders
- Installing the automatic pool cleaner
4a - Put the ground protection felt in place.
4b - Cut out the felt underlay using a Stanley knife or a pair of scissors.
4c - Put the liner in place when the outdoor temperature is between 20°C and 25°C.
4d - Fit the corners of the liner into the corners of the pool.
4e - Hook the liner on to the lip of the track.
4f - Position the locking strip around the edge of the basin. Start in the middle of each side.
4g - Stretch the liner to its full extent.
4h - Fill the pool with water to a depth of 2 cm.
4i - Smooth out the creases in the liner and carry on filling until the water is 5cm below the backwash inlet nozzle.
5a - Stop filling when the water is just below the backwash inlet nozzles.
5b - Position the backwash inlet nozzle from inside the pool.
5c - Cut out the liner for the backwash inlet nozzles and the pool cleaner point, leaving about 2 mm play around each. Fit the seals, the backwash inlet nozzles and the pool cleaner point.
5d - Tighten the outer nuts on the backwash inlet nozzles and the pool cleaner point enough to ensure they are waterproof, following the tip shown in the diagram if necessary.
5e - Bind Teflon tape around the ends that have been fed through, working in an anti-clockwise direction.
5f - Screw in the ends of the backwash inlet nozzle and the automatic pool cleaner point.
5g - This is an example of how to position the pipe work for the backwash. It is possible to fit union fittings after the elbow joints for dismantling purposes.
