STEP 5

Install the top ledge cover cap by inserting one snap into cavity and push the other 

into place until it clicks.

LOCKING THE FOOTS IN ROUND SECTION

Screws 14455032 on the bottom of the uprights now be installed to solidify the 

whole structure and prevent uprights and bottom plates against ground movements 

due to freezing/thawing. 

FILLING THE POOL WITH WATER

STEP 1

You can use a vacuum cleaner to remove the air between the liner and the pool wall. 

By removing the air, the liner will stretch a little and start sticking to the pool wall. 

This will allow you to correct the surface of the liner and remove folds and wrinkles. 

Do not use an industrial vacuum cleaner that could suck 

the liner and damage it or pierce it.

Make sure the vacuum cleaner nozzle does not have 

sharp corner(s) that could damage the liner. Tape the 

end of the nozzle to prevent any damage.

Insert the end of the nozzle into the return of the wall 

(about 12 in/30 cm). Make sure the nozzle is at least 

4 in/10 cm from the cove of the pool so it is not moved 

or sucked by the vacuum cleaner.

Tape the vacuum hose to the side of the pool wall with 

duct tape. Make sure the return hole is blocked 

properly to keep air out. The vacuum must be outside 

the pool.

STEP 3

Start the vacuum cleaner. The liner will begin to stick against the wall. If you notice 

any wrinkles, smooth out the bottom. To avoid damaging the liner do not wear 

shoes for this step.

STEP 4

Start filling the pool with water by using a gardening hose. 

During the whole filling process:

  Check for wrinkles in the liner.

 To prevent the liner from moving, smooth out 

  any visible wrinkles at the bottom of the pool before there is too much water in 

  the pool. The slow flow of the gardening hose will allow the liner to stretch and

 

  give you time to put it back in place if you see any wrinkles.
• 

Inspect the structure regularly.

 Make sure the rails stay in place and flat to the

 

  foundation. Make sure the wall stays in place in the rail.s and no kinks are formed 

  when the weight of the water pulls on the liner. If the wall kinks, immediately stop 

  filling with water, investigate and correct the issue with the structure.

STEP 6

Install the safety labels as prescribed in Section Warnings of this manual.
