POOL SETUP
For pools with a wall height of 48" (122cm) and above
3. Vertical Legs Assembly
- With the beams and T-joints assembly resting on the ground, slide the vertical legs into the sleeves attached on the belt located in the middle of the pool liner. (Refer to diagrams 3.1 & 3.2, showing legs sliding into sleeves).
- NOTE: Add a little water to the leg pipe and sleeve to aid the insertion of the leg into the sleeve.
- Snap the top of the leg into the T-joint's holes by aligning the holes and the spring-loaded pin.
- Attach the leg's end cap to the bottom of the leg (Refer to drawing 3.3, showing end cap attachment).
- Lift the beams assembly and make sure all the legs are in a vertical position.
- Push all the T-joints downward to ensure they are firmly connected to the legs.
IMPORTANT:
- Ensure each leg is vertical and perpendicular to the level ground.
- Ensure the middle belt's holders are centered between two legs (Refer to drawing 3.4, showing belt holder placement).
- Ensure the middle belt is flat and free of folding around the legs' sleeves.
- Stretch the belt from the top and bottom edges as well as side to side to remove wrinkles (Refer to drawings 3.5 & 3.6, showing belt stretching).
- Check the legs, legs' sleeves, and belt during the initial water filling stage.
Optional: Pull gently, in an outward direction, the bottom of the leg making sure the leg is vertical and perpendicular to the level ground.
4. Filling of the Pool
The following applies to pool liners with hose connectors (16' (488 cm) & below pools).
- If the pool was purchased without a filter pump, insert two of the three plugs (8) into the black filter pump outlets. Do this from the inside of the pool so that water will not run out when filling it.
- If the pool was purchased with a filter pump, read the Krystal Clear™ Filter Pump Manual first and then proceed to the next installation step.
Before filling the pool with water, ensure that the drain plug inside the pool is closed and that the drain cap on the outside is screwed on tightly. Fill the pool with no more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water. Check to see whether the water is level.
IMPORTANT:
If the water in the pool flows to one side, the pool is not completely level. Setting up the pool on unlevel ground will cause the pool to tilt, resulting in the sidewall material bulging and a potential collapse of the pool. If the pool is not completely level, you must drain the pool, level the area or move the pool to a different area that is level, and re-fill the pool, following the above directions.
- Smooth out the bottom liner wrinkles (from inside the pool) by pushing out where the pool floor and pool sides meet. Or, (from outside pool) reach under the side of the pool, grasp the pool floor and pull in an outward direction.
- If the ground cloth is causing the wrinkles, have 2 adults pull from opposite sides to remove all wrinkles.
- Use the properly assembled pool ladder when entering or exiting the pool during this process.
- Also make sure all the legs are vertical and perpendicular to the ground.
Fill the pool with water up to just below the sleeve line (Refer to drawing 4, indicating the water level). The water level should be just below the sleeve line.
5. Posting Aquatic Safety Signs
Select a highly visible area near the pool to post the "Danger No Diving or Jumping" sign included later in this manual.
