It is best to have
several
helpers
stabilize the pool wall
during installation. If
you are not able to get
any "extra hands" you
may use "S" hooks,
cord, and stakes
instead.
Make sure
you place some duct
tape on the "S" hooks
to prevent them from
scratching your pool
wall.
WALL CAN UNCOIL
ABRUPTLY WHEN
BANDS ARE CUT.
MAKE SURE YOU
HAVE A FIRM GRIP
ON THE WALL
BEFORE CUTTING
BANDS.

FIG. 12
a.
Set coiled pool wall on a 2'X2' cardboard inside the pool area (FIG. 13). Make
sure the wide-mouth skimmer opening is at top of wall.
b.
The skimmer knockouts begin approximately 12" from the beginning of the
pool wall. Begin wall installation at the foot plate 12" from where your filter
will be located.
For best skimming results, filter must be located on either end of the oval
pool
As wall is uncoiled, guide the bottom edge into the rim groove until wall
ends, overlap and the holes align. If ends overlap too much, gently nudge
rims toward outside of pool. If ends do not meet, gently nudge rims toward
inside of pool (FIG. 14).
c.
As you are joining the wall ends, attach the reinforcing bars on the outer sides
of the pool wall using the 5/8" machine screws and hex nuts as shown in Fig.
15 - insert screws from inside of pool. Nuts and washers MUST be on outside
(FIG. 15). To eliminate burrs on screw heads, hold screws in place with a
screwdriver and then turn the nuts to tighten. Tighten the nuts to a minimum
torque of 70 inch pounds. File off any burrs on screw heads and cover the
inside wall joint with heavy tape.
