CONNECTION OF STEEL WALL ENDS (TO BE SCREWED TOGETHER)
The ends of the steel wall overlap, so that the holes
of the two steel wall ends are exactly on top of each
other. Two additional 2 stabilizer bars included to
stabilize the wall. One of these bars must be fitted
form the inside and one from the outside (see
image). Insert the screws with screw heads on the
inside of the wall, then attach a washer first and
then a nut on each screw from the outside (tighten
firmly with a 10 mm ring or fork wrench). To avoid
damage to the liner later on, it is imperative to
cover/pad the screw heads with thick package or
insulation tape (not included in delivery).
Finally, attach the blue protective cover (guardrail)
on the screw heads (plugged in from the outside) so
that the screw ends cannot cause any injury.
Important :
Tighten all screws firmly and check
them regularly. Loose screws may
cause a crack in the steel wall.
GROUNDING THE SWIMMING POOL (EQUIPOTENTIAL BONDING)
Drill a Ø 5 mm hole into the steel wall, just above
the bottom rails. Attach the enclosed grounding kit
(see drawing) and connect the cable to an approx.
30 cm long metal earth spike (not included in
delivery) which you anchor in the ground. In case of
a concrete backfill, place the grounding through this
into the ground. In case of above ground pools, drive
the earth spike completely into the ground so that it
cannot cause any injuries.
Attention: According to DIN/VDE regulations,
electrical installations may only be carried out by
authorized specialist companies.
ASSEMBLY OF OTHER COMPONENTS
Before attaching the liner, cut/punch all holes
required for the assembly of other built-in parts
(e.g. second inlet nozzle, floodlights, countercurrent
systems etc.) into the steel wall, carefully remove all
chips and metal parts and protect the cutting areas
with a zinc spray from rust.
