Introduction
You are advised to read this whole book before starting your project. In the event of any problems or questions please contact your
dealer immediately who will be please to help. Warranty claims will not be entertained if there is delay in reporting a problem or
these instructions have not been followed.
Recommendations for Storage after Delivery
In the pre-assembly period the wood is sensitive to variations in temperature and humidity. It is therefore necessary that you take
the following precautions immediately after delivery.
• Do not store the wood in direct sunlight or under a black cover as this will cause distortion which will make installation
extremely difficult.
• Assemble the structure as soon as possible after receipt.
• Assemble the structure in one go, preferably in the morning while the temperature is cool.
• If the pool must be stored then use a cool well-ventilated place, sheltered from sun and rain. If possible keep the pool in its
original packaging.
• Components that are damaged, cracked or distorted due to bad storage and /or handling on site are not covered by warranty.
Wood is a living material and once cut the appearance of cracks, slight movements or changes in colour are normal and the
planks (except in extreme circumstances) do not need replacing. The planks will have been recently treated and may be delivered
to you still moist. In case of a rapid change in temperature; these planks can dry very rapidly and lose 1 or 2mm of height. This
might give you the impression that they are lifting up while they are actually shrinking.
General Safety Precautions
• Unless your filtration kit (filter, pump and any optional heating) is housed within a secure waterproof enclosure it should be
placed at least 2m from the shell.
• It is important to ensure the electricity supply for the pump or any other electrical item has 30mA RCD protection and conforms to
present electrical regulations.
• Never leave children unattended around the pool when completed or at any stage of construction.
• The pool is designed for domestic use. Running along the top rail, diving or jumping into the water from the edge must not be
allowed under any circumstances. The pool is not suitable for the addition of diving boards.
Required Tools
There are no specialist tools required but in addition to regular hand tools the following will be useful.
• Heavy mallets for assembling walls.
• Large spirit level and set square.
• Quality battery drill with screw driver bits, drill bits and counter sink.
• Wet & dry type vacuum cleaner for fitting the liner.
• Clamps for holding components.
• Mitre block with 22½ degree slots for cutting liner lock.
• Large scissors for cutting underlay felt.
Kit Contents
Both the equipment box and the pallet of wooden planks contain a packing list detailing the contents. As you unpack your pool
check you have all parts required and that their condition is satisfactory. Contact your dealer immediately if you are in any doubt
or believe parts may be missing / damaged.
