INSTALLATION FLOOR PROTECTION
FLEECE
After the foundation has been properly prepared
and the substrate is perfectly level, you must
cover the ground with a synthetic floor protection
fleece (not included in the delivery). Please clean
the surface thoroughly once again and remove all
stones/unevenness, which could be dangerous for
the liner.
Place the fleece either end-to-end and secure with
double-sided adhesive tape, or allow it to overlap
(i.e. covering the edges). The fleece should exceed
the pool dimensions by about 10 cm on the outside
(if no protective fleece is used, there is no warranty
on the liner).
ASSEMBLING THE BOTTOM RAILS
The next step is assembling the bottom rail
segments with the connecting tubes.
Please note that the bottom rails must be shortened
to the length of the steel wall.
STEEL WALL SETUP
Do not set the pool up in case of strong winds.
There should be at least 3 people to help so that the
steel wall does not bend/tilt over. To stabilize the
wall during assembly, the top rail segments can be
temporarily attached on the top of the raised steel
wall. Please wear protective gloves as the steel wall
can have sharp edges. Place the steel wall on a
wooden board and carefully roll it apart. Insert the
steel wall into the bottom rails (white side outwards).
It may be helpful to push the bottom rails into the
steel wall from below with a board. Ensure that the
skimmer pre-cut is located at the top of the metal
wall (it becomes visible after having unrolled about 1
meter of the steel wall) is at the top of the steel wall.
Remove the skimmer cut by breaking it away.
