Included with the CS step system is a
barrier (Figure 13.1) designed to prevent
swimming behind the unit - it is very
important that it is installed.
The barrier is hollow and can be filled
with coarse sand or gravel for ballast if
desired. The additional weight will assist
the step to sit securely on the pool floor.
A closure cap for the barrier (Figure
13.2) is included. Simply remove the cap,
fill barrier and replace cap. DO NOT USE
fine sand if filling the barrier as it may
escape small air holes in the barrier.

Position the barrier in the center of the
underside of the in-pool portion of the
steps (Figure 13.3). The four knobs on the
barrier fit into indentations on the under-
side of the treads (Figure 13.4). Press
barrier and knobs into treads and secure
using eight (8) # 10 x 1 inch long screws
provided. Make certain not to over-tighten
the screws as they may strip.
