Fitting the External Wooden Ladder
• Offer up the wooden ladder to your chosen pool
wall and position by laying a spirit level on a ladder
tread.
[See Figure F01]
• On the majority of pools we manufacture, the
ladder will fit tight against top shelving brackets,
however you may have a pool where it fits against
a vertical support plank. This is perfectly normal.
• Use a 10mm drill to make holes through the ladder
and top shelving bracket/vertical support plank.
• Take the 10mm coach bolt and pass it through the
hole from the inner side. Fix on the washer and nut
from the outer side so that people do not catch
their feet on the protruding fixings whilst using the
ladder.
[See Figure F02]

• Assemble the stainless steel ladder in accordance
with its own supplied instructions.
• Remember to fit the ladder cushions to the bottom
of the ladder or you will damage your liner.
• Place the ladder on the top shelf directly above the
wooden ladder.
[See Figure F03]
• Use a spirit level to position the ladder vertically
and make sure the ladder cushions are resting
against the pool liner.
• Mark positions of the 6 holes in the fixing flanges.
• Remove the ladder and drill 8mm holes through
the top shelving.
• Reposition the ladder and fit the 6 ladder bolts
down through the ladder flange and top shelf.
[See
Figure F04]
• Underneath the top shelving fit a washer and nut
onto each bolt and tighten.
