will be installed so that it is flat and level.

3. Set the depth of the sleeve so that after the concrete
is poured, the top of the Sleeve will be level with the
surface of the concrete (see FIGURE 3 for sleeve
dimensions).
4. Using an angle square or similar device, align the
Sleeve so that it is square with the edge of the
pool as shown in FIGURE 4.

5. Place a level on each side of the sleeve and make
sure it is vertically oriented straight up and down at
a 90 degrees angle to the level surface of the ground
(refer to FIGURE 5).
6. To secure the sleeve in place so that it won’t shift
or move when pouring the deck, you can use ribar or
stakes to secure the sleeve in place.
The two holes in the Sleeve Plate can be utilized for
this purpose (refer to FIGURE 6).
