PIPE COnnECTIOnS
w
Connect the rigid descending pipes and the filtration group as illustrated in the diagram
below. The filtration kit supplied with your pool is sized for installation of the filtration
group 3.5m from the pool, pipe and tube lengths are indicative. They will need to be
modified as a function of your pool configuration. Make sure that you calculate and cut
the various lengths as a function of the rolls of tubing provided.
w
Open the various valves to fill the hydraulic circuit with water. Check for leaks.
w
Before starting the pump (the pump should never be allowed to run ‘dry’) check that the
pre-filter has filled with water. If necessary, open the pre-filter and fill it and the skimmer
with water to facilitate priming of the pump.
w
Turn the 6-way valve to Wash (to clean the filter before starting filtration. See page 72).
w
Start the pump and check for leaks again.

installed in-ground,
check for leaks before

Once the connections are made, fill the pool up to 5 cm below the return
fitting or apertures for the underwater lights (depending on their position)
and cut the liner as described on page 70 and finalise installation of the
underwater light (page 71 and the underwater light installation instructions.)
w
Check that all the valves are closed and fill the pool until the water level is
2/3 of the way up the skimmer mouth.
