Setup Instructions

Follow these steps for proper assembly of your Bestway Steel Pro MAX pool. Ensure the chosen location is level and clear of debris.

1. Prepare the Site: Select a flat, level surface free of sharp objects, rocks, or roots. The ground should be firm enough to support the weight of the filled pool.
2. Lay Liner Flat: Unfold the pool liner and lay it flat in the chosen area. Ensure the drain valve is positioned correctly for future draining.
