INTRODUCTION: Congratulations on becoming the owner of a new above ground swimming pool. This is the instruction packet for installing your swimming pool. The following are some helpful hints that you should take into consideration before installing your pool. 1) Read through the entire instruction booklet before you begin. This will enable you to find out exactly what is involved with installing your swimming pool before you begin. While you are going-through the instructions, please be aware that all of-the diagrams are representative of a 15' x 30718' x 33' pool. If you have a different size pool you will find that your pool has a different number of uprights than the ones in the diagrams. 2) DO NOT ATTEMPT INSTALLATION IN WINDY OR GUSTY WEATHER. This will not only make installation more difficult, it may result in damage to your pool before it is completely installed. 3)Although we have broken down the installation into many simple steps, you will probably find that steps one and two will be the most labor intensive and time consuming steps. Once you have completed those two steps you should find that the rest of the installation moves along much more quickly. 4) Please be sure to review all safety material and local codes before beginning your installation. There is a yellow safety envelope packed with your pool. This envelope contains safety material and warning stickers to be placed on your pool. If you are missing any of these items please contact your dealer or the factory to obtain it. The warranty is void if all safety precautions are not followed. 5) In the event that you need to make a warranty claim, it is important to know the size and model of your swimming pool in order to expedite the handling of your claim.

Once you have these measurements and have chosen a site to install your pool, mark or outline the ground where the pool will be going using spray paint or some other marking agent. Please keep in mind that you will need some extra room to work. Be sure to account for the space that the side supports extend out on each side of an oval pool. The strap end channel extends out 37" from the wall of the pool on each of the two straight sides of a Traditional Buttress oval. If you have a Buttress-Free oval pool system, the strap end channel extends only 19" out from the wall on each side. Refer to the "Actual Size" chart for further clarification. I For example, a 15x30 oval should have the following space in order to install the pool. Traditional Buttress Oval: Buttress-.Free Oval: 32' -----, 32' I \� i 23'4" i 30' 15.2" 20'4" i 30' 115.2. ------J ter- - i l, L j J J Fig. 2 15 x 30 Fig. 2A 15 x 30 *Once you have the appropriate area marked out,remove any sod that is in the area.Also be sure to avoid all electrical wires, gas lines,septic tanks, cesspools, dry wells, tree roots,stumps, buried debris,and sudden slopes within 6'of the pool area. STEP 2—LEVELING: Once you have designated the space for installation, and have cleared away the sod in that area, you can begin to level the ground. The ideal tool for doing this is a transit. If you do not have access to a transit, use a long board (be sure that the board is perfectly straight) and a carpenters level, as shown in the diagram. The key to properly leveling the surface for an above ground swimming pool is to start at the lowest point and dig everything else down to that level. You do not want to build up the'lower areas to be level with the higher areas. Doing this will cause the ground to settle once the pool is fiill of water. If the ground settles it could destroy your pool, which could be dangerous and is not coveted under fhe warranty. You will probably not be able to get the ground completely level until you lay out the frame,but the closer you get it now the easier the job will be later. We recommend that you do not proceed until the entire site is within an inch of being perfectly level. Remove soil and grass to this level. ;fir; � :- `p: Remove grass only from low areas. * DO NOT ADD DIRT TO LOW AREAS.

Count the number of each part and check that against the packing list as well. This way if you are missing something you can contact the people you purchased the pool from before you begin the construction of the pool. Below are some generic diagrams of oval pool components to help used. IMPORTANT:ZTANT: Do not attempt to assemble these parts now.

A) Start by laying the strap end channels out on the ground so that the open ends face down. Notice the two slots on top of 5 each of these channels. You will not be using these slots in the construction of the pool, but pay attention to where they Fig, 7 are located in the diagrams. They indicate which way the channels are facing. See Fig.7 B)Now take the straight side 4"x4" Upright and push it down 4 over the strap end channel where those slots are located. Position the open end of the straight side upright to face the short end of the channel (the inside of the pool) as shown in Fig.8. The two holes on each side of the upright should line up with two of the holes on each side of the strap end channel. Secure the parts with two 5/16" x 4 1/2" bolts and 5 two 5/16" nuts. Repeat for all assemblies. „ Fig. S C) Once all of the straight side uprights are attached, you can begin attaching the struts. This is done by pushing the angled end of the strut (the end with two holes on each ° side) over the end of the strap end channel and the other 1z side around the straight side upright. The hole on each side v of the strut lines up with the hole in the straight side upright that is farthest from the open end of the straight ° side upright. The two holes on the other end of the strut line up with the only two holes in the back end of the strap ! end channel. Secure the struts using three 5/16" x 4 '/2" Fig. 9 i bolts and three 5/16" nuts. See Fig-.9 for visual instructions.

ALTERNATE STEP 4 - PRE-ASSEMBLING THE STRAIGHT SIDES OFA BUTTRESS-FREE OVAL POOL ONLY- *** IF YOU HAVE A TRADITIONAL BUTTRESS OVAL PLEASE REFER TO THE PREVIOUS STEP 4! A) Start by laying out the under box channels so that the open -� sides of each under box channel is facing up. Then slide the strap end channel over the top of the under box channels so that they form a tube. Be sure that the holes in both channels are aligned, but do not bolt there together yet. See Fig. 11 Fig. 11 B)Now slide the straight side 4"x4" uprights over the strap end channels making sure that the holes line up as shown in Fig.12. \\ Fig. 12 Q Once the straight side 4"x4" uprights are attached, apply the left and gussets right side on each. The g g pieces are marked ,1z "L" and "R". The gussets are applied under the channels and ; around the straight side upright. Once you have them in place screw the left and right gussets to each other using three#10 screws. See Fig.13 for visual instructions. \ \Fig. 13 D)All holes should be lined up at this point.Bolt the components together as shown in the diagram. Use 5/16" x 5" long bolts 4IJalong is and 5/16" nuts for the channels, and 5/16" x 4 1/2" long ss ` stainless steel bolts for connecting the gussets to the uprights.

STEP 5 - STRAP ASSEMBLY FOR Traditional Buttress OVAL POOL ONLY: *** USE THIS STEP FOR TRADITIONAL BUTTRESS OVAL INSTALLATION ONLY! ,IF YOU HAVE A BUTTRESS-FREE OVAL PLEASE SEE ALTERNATE STEP 5. Notice that there are two different sizes of strap packed with your pool. Each strap is stamped with a part number and a length. A) If your pool is 10' wide, each strap will be made up of three pieces. Two of the pieces will measure 27.25" long and one will measure 39.275" long. B) if your pool is 12' wide, each strap will be made up of two 41.025" long pieces and one 39.275" long piece. C) If your pool is 15' wide, each strap will be made up of four pieces. Three of the pieces will measure 40.683" long and one will measure 39.275" long. D) If your pool is 18' wide, each strap will be made up of four pieces. Three of the pieces will measure 52.6875" long and one piece will measure 39.275" long. E) If your pool is 21' wide, each strap will be made up of four pieces. Three of the pieces will measure 48.984" long and one will measure 39.275" long.

USE THE PREUI®IIS STEP FIDE FOR YOUR OVAL POOL. When you separate the strap pieces, you will find that you have two different lengths. You will have three strap components per complete strap for 10' wide and 12' wide oval pools, and four strap components per com- plete strap for all pools 15' and 18' wide. If your pool is 21' wide, you will have five strap sections that form a complete strap for your pool. Regardless of the size of your oval pool, there is one piece of strap material that is 39.275" long for each strap assembly (example: a 15' x 30' pool has four strap assemblies so it comes with four 39.275" long strati pieces.) With the Buttress-Free system that strap piece will NOT be used. You should discard these pieces so that you do not accidentally include them in your strap assembly.Those pieces are only used on Traditional Buttress oval assemblies.

IF YOU HAVE A BUTTRESS-FREE OVAL PLEASE SEE ALTERNATE STEP 6. After you have completed the assembly of all of the strap sections, each end of the assembled straps need to be attached to a strap end channel. Please keep in mind that the strap runs underneath the liner of the pool, so it should be attached to the open end of the channel, not the side where the strut connects. The straps connect to the channels, along with the end chaninnel caps, shown in Fig.19 and Fig.20 using two 5/16" x %" bolts and two 5/16" nuts at every connection. Be sure to attach the straps to the underside of the strap end channels. The heads of the bolts go on top of the channel, and the nuts should be on the under side. Always use the two holes closest to the end of the strap end channels when connecting the strap sections to the channel. 5/16"x 1/2" Bolts 5/16" Nuts .Fig. 18 15'2" As you are bolting the strap to the strap end channels, add the end channel caps to the under side of the straps at each end as shown in Fig.19 and Fig.20 When these end channel caps are lined up properly,the two holes in these end channel caps will line up with the two holes in the straps, as well as,the corresponding holes in the strap end channels themselves. These end channel caps are secured in place using the same two 5/16" x ``V? bolts and 5/16" nuts that are used to secure the straps to the strap end channels. When these parts are installed correctly they will cover the openings at the ends of the channels. This will prevent the sand base of your pool from washing into these channels once the pool is filled with water. ® ®® 0 0 strap end strap end Fig. 19 channel cap Fig. 20 channel ca p ALTERNATE STEP 6 -ATTACHING STRAPS TO STRAP END CHANNELS .FOR A BUTTRESS-FREE OVAL POOL ONLY: ***IF YOU HAVE A TRADITIONAL BUTTRESS OVAL DO NOT USE THIS STEP 6. USE THE PREV1009 STEP 6 FOR YOUR OVAL POOL. When the straps are completely assembled (as shown in Fig.21) attach each end of the straps, and an end channel cap (shown in Fig.22 and Fig.23) to a strap end channel using two 5/16" x %i" bolts and two 5/16" nuts at each point of connection. Note that the strap should be attached to the underside of the channels (as shown in Fig.21) with the heads of the bolts on top of the channel and the nuts on the underside of the channel. Always use the two holes closest to the end of the strap end channel when you are connecting the straps to the strap end channels (as shown in Fig.23). 5/16"x 1/2" Bolts 5/16" Nuts Fig. 21 1,9'21- As 5'2"As you are bolting the strap to the strap end channels, add the end channel caps to the underside of the straps at each end as shown in Fig.22 and Fig.23.

This will prevent the sand base of your pool from washing into these channels once the pool is filled with water. ® ®� o strap end strap end Fig. 22 channel cap Fig. 23 channel cap STEP 7- STRAIGIH[T SIDE LAYOUT After all of the straps have been fully assembled and attached to the strap end channels you can now start to set them up in their final positions. If'your pool has an odd number of straps (for example a 12' X 24'pool has three straps) find the center point of the site you leveled earlier and put the first strap and straight side upright assembly there. You then place one assembly 42", from center of strap end channel to center of strap end channel, on each side of that first assembly. Continue like this until all assemblies are used. If your pool has an even number of'straps and straight side assemblies (for example a 15' x 30' pool has four, which is pictured below) find your center point, marls it on the ground, and put an assembly on each side of that mark 21" away to the center of the strap end channels. If your pool has more than two assemblies you will put the next assemblies 42" on center from the previous assembly, as shown in Fig. 26 and Fig. 27, always keeping the same number of assemblies on each side of your center point. Once you have all assemblies in place you want to be sure that all of the straight side uprights on one side line up with each other. This can be done fairly accurately by eye but we recommend that you use a string extending from the first upright to the last. If there are any uprights not touching the string, or that cause the string to bulge out, adjust that assembly so that the string is perfectly straight. If you are trying to install your pool parallel to an already existing object such as a fence, simply measure from the fence to each straight side upright making sure that the measurement is exactly the same for each. Once you are confident that one side is straight the other side should already be straight. If it does not appear to be straight, check to snake sure that the straps are setting flat on the ground.

When installing these plates the corrugation bumps should be up and the flat surface should be down. One edge has a larger flat surface than the other. The larger flat surface should be closer to the center of the pool. (See diagram). The pressure plate must extend past the end of the channel about 1"towards the center of your pool. If you have done this correctly the two holes in the center of the pressure plate line up with the two holes in the center of the strap end channel. Secure the plates to the channels using two #12 X 3/4" screws in each. Once all plates are secured to the channels, the plates should overlap each other. Secure the plates to each other using three#12 screws in each overlapping area. Traditional Buttress r- IRIN �. Fig. 28 < ,'', Buttress-Flee j ;, Fig. 29 STEP 9 - BOTTOM RAIL ASSEMBLY: When you unpacked the bottom rails you should have noticed the three different size rails (except if you have a 12' x 17' pool, in which case you only have two different size rails.) Some of the rails are 37 %Z" long, sorne are39" long, and the rest of the rails are longer but the exact measurement depends on which size pool you have. It is very important to separate rails by size now. Please note the different bottom tracks. Inner Stabilizer 5/8"x 5/8". Used on the top of the pool. Fig. 31 Resin Bottom Track Fig. 30 Bottom Rail 1" x 5/8". Used on the bottom � = ;ee of the pool. Fig. 32 Metal Bottom Track *IMPORTANT: Make sure you are.using the bottom rails and not the inner stabilizer bars.The bottom rails on some pool models are made of resin,and not metal(see Fig.31 and Fig.32).The stabilizer bars are always metal and they have a male and female end.The bottom rails are the larger width rails that have the straight cuts on both ends. The bottom rails do not interlock(see Fig.30). A) The 37 ''/z" long bottom rails go in between the straight side uprights. You simply press them down inside the straight side bottom connector on each side. These rails will eventually need to be sitting flat on the ground, but you can do that as you are leveling the pool. B) The four 39" bottom rails are for the "corners." One side snaps into the straight side connector on the final straight side upright, while the other side slides into a bottom plate or bottom cuff as shown in Fig.33 or Fig.34. Q You should have an even number of the longest bottom rails, as well as, an even number of bottom plates or bottom cuffs (depending on the model pool you have.) These will form the curved ends of your pool. Half of these rails and plates/cuffs will go on one end and the other half on the other end. Slide each rail into the plate, or cuff, up to the stop as shown. Be sure that the plate, or cuff, is outside of the half circle created on each side of the pool. Once all rails are assembled, you should now be able to see the entire shape of the oval pool on the ground.

Please refer to your pool parts breakdown sheet to confirm which component applies to you particular pool. f STEP 10— SQUARING THE STRAIGHT SIDES: Now that the bottom structure of the pool is fully assembled, make sure that the straight sides of the pool are perfectly in line with each other. We refer to this as "squaring" the pool. This is done by measuring from the out- side of the first straight side upright on one side, to the outside of the last straight side upright on the opposite side (the two straight side uprights farthest from each other.) When malting these measurements they should always be taken from the lower 12" of the straight side uprights because the higher up on the straight side upright you go, the less accurate the measurements will be. Once you have that measurement, you should measure the distance between the two opposite straight side uprights the same way (as shown in Fig.37 and Fig.38.) The two measurements should be exactly the same. If they are not, adjust one entire straight side as necessary. This is a very important step, do not continue until the measurements are identical.

STEP 11 —LEVELING THE STRAIGHT SIDES: The leveling of the straight sides is a very crucial part of a good installation. if this is not done accurately it will cause a'lot of problems for you. The strap end channels are two inches deep. The top of the strap end channel needs to be level with the ground. The bottom plates or bottom cuffs on the curved sides also need to be level with the ground. One at a time we recommend digging the strap end channels into the ground. Once all of the channels on a side are level,put a 2" x 8" x 16" patio block under the back of each strap end channel as shown in Fig.39 and Fig.40. This must be done for each strap end channel. Remember the block is two inches deep and so is the end channel, You will need to-dig down a total of 4" where the block is in order to get the top of the strap end channel to ground level. Once you have completed one entire side, do the same for every strap end channel on the opposite side.After that is complete it is a good idea to check that your straight side uprights are all level from top to bottom by using a carpenters level. The pressure plates and straight side bottom rails ensure that your bottoms are still 42" on center Be sure that the tops of the straight side uprights are as well. Traditional Buttress Buttress-Free e, Fig. 39 tl1 Fig. 40 � Caere'e Bock Canar'r Firvk atlr'tl 1 CVCI Gruu'W leuroi STEP 12—LEVELING THE CURVED SIDES: The next step is to level the curved sides of the pool. Before doing this you may want to measure the overall length and width of the pool to ensure that it is the same size as shown on step 10 of this booklet. If it is off by a couple of inches your wall will not fit properly. You can fix this situation by simply sliding the curved side bottom rails in or out of the bottom plates or bottom,cuffs as shown in Fig.42 and Fig.43. This should be done an even amount for each plate or cuff; Once you are certain that the pool is the correct size, level the curved sides of the pool. Do this by placing a 2" x 8" x 16" patio block,under each of the bottom plates or bottom cuffs. The blocks will need to be sunk into the ground so that the bottom plates or bottom cuffs are at the sarne level as the tops of the strap end channels. It is also important to make sure that the rails between the plates or cuffs are resting flat on the ground. Rails can be slid Fig. 41 LEVEL PATIO BLOCK `�` in or out from the stops on the bottom plates or cuffs to adjust for Null length being a little off. Fig. 42 NOTE:Check for levelness in all directions.When placing patio blocks under curved side bottom plates 1 or bottom cuffs,leave 1"of the block inside the pool and 6"showing outside of the pool. t— Fig. 43 i I STEP 13 —WALL INSTALLATION: ** DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS STEP IN WINDY COMDITIONS. THE WALL IS VERY HEAVY AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MANAGE ON A WINDY DAY. IF THE WIND DOES CATCH THE WALL DURING INSTALLATION IT CAN CREATE DANGEROUS SITUATIONS AND/OR CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE POOL. Before beginning the wall installation, you may remove a curved side bottom rail to cart in sand or sifted soil for the pool cove and base as long as your curved sides are staked in position (make sure you return the bot- tom rail to its proper position once you are done with this.) In this step you should flatten the carton the wall came packed in, and use that as a base to unravel the pool wall as you install it. We recommend the skimmer and ret to hole to be placed at one of the four comers of the curved sections of the pool (as shown in Fig.44). The skimmer location is determined by where you start the wall. You can hide the wall joint assembly on most size pools by beginning the wall in the middle of one of the curved side bottom plates or bottom cuffs. Unfortunately, you will not be able to hide the wall joints behind an upright on some of the smaller size oval pools. Doing so will cause your skiin ner and/or return punch out to fall behind an upright, which you cannot have. In any case, the wall joints MUST be on one of the curved ends of the pool and not on one of the straight sides. Unravel the wall a little at a time, inserting it into the bottom rails as you go. Do not unravel the entire wall at once, as doing so will make the installation much more difficult.As you unravel the wall you may temporarily install the stabilizer rails, or use landscaping stakes with clamps to keep the wall in place (as we show in Fig.45 and Fig.46). We recommend that in addition to the,stabilizer rails or stakes that you temporarily use small pieces of duct tape from the top of the wall to the top of each of the straight side uprights as added support during the installation. If the sidewall appears too long or too short, make the curved sides larger or XX smaller by equally sliding the bottom rails in or out of the bottom plates or cuffs (see Fig.42 and Fig.43 to step # 12). If the ground is uneven, the wall may jump out of the groove in the bottom rails. Correct this condition if it happens by rechecking the level of the entire pool.

Make sure that the straps and the pressure plates are covered entirely, If the base does not fully cover the metal components, they will show through•and will damage the liner. If using vermiculite or foam base, you must have at`least two inches of soil or sand on top of the straps and pressure plates. Vermiculite alone will not properly cover these metal components, possibly allowing damage to the liner. Do not use any substance with high alkaline or acid content, such as peat moss. It will cause the pool to corrode. Fig: 5®, Next,using sifted earth or fine sand,build a 6" to 8" pool cove inside ���� �<�,=%•d a E, _ <'��r, P�ASTIc % the metal wall along the entire circumference. The cove will prevent the J ;a° =6:k SHEET RI liner from creeping under the wall and will also protect the liner from `" ss� SIDE WALL ,any metal corners of the pool framework. THIS STEP IS NOT OPTIONAL—IT MUST BE DONE! Since earth containing chemicals can cause discoloration or corrosion, it is suggested that you place •:-:r �a�;3�•�• polyethylene plastic sheeting under the cove around the perimeter of the :`' - �;4�„�xv�•.<�r,���; wall so no earth comes in contact with the metal. Since the presence of such chemicals is beyond the control of the manufacturer, such damage 2” is not covered by the warranty. The plastic sheeting will not prevent a washout in the event that your liner is damaged. The plastic is only to co°E a" protect the metal framework of the pool from,corrosion. After the cove and base are in place,rake and tamp the entire pool area. Make sure.that no sand remains on the wall above the cove. This could cause pinholes in your liner. Fig. 51 STEP 16—CURVED END UPRIGHT ASSEMBLY- Top Plate It is easiest to line up all of the uprights next to each other. X It helps to lean them up against a fence or some other sturdy ®° object. On most models, the top of the upright can be determined 'ems by either an extra hole in the center, or an extra hole on each side (depending on which model pool you have) for the decorator caps. Place the metal top plate on the upright making sure that the holes Put front line up and the hooked part of the plate is facing the open side of screw of the upright. Now screw only the center hole using a#10 x '/2" top plate in screw. Do not screw the two,side holes until later. This will make things easier and more efficient down the line. Upright Now is the time to install the fence post,holders onto the uprights if you have a fence for the pool. Please see'separate fence instructions for details on doing this. Install uprights on curved ends, refer to the appropriate step below for your particular pool. Fig. 52 TYPE #1 e BOTTOM PLATE POOLS: ® Models with metal or resin bottom plates will require one,two, or three Upright #10 x'/2'screws for each upright,depending on which model you have. The top plates can remain unsecured for now,but they should be temporarily clipped over the wall to prevent them from falling backward. #10 Screw #10 Screw r If your pool has an additional resin "boot" for the bottom of the upright, secure them to the uprights at this point using two more#10 x ''/2' screws. ® Check curved ends of the pool for roundness again,making sure that the stakes have not been moved and your pool is still a true oval shape. Bottom Plate i TYPE #2 - BOTTOM CUES POOLS:. •Models with resin bottom cuffs, instead of bottom plates, do not require hardware in order to secure the upright at the bottom. Simply line up holes in the lower portion of the upright with the corresponding clips in the bottom cuff and push them down until they lock in place. When this is done properly the upright will not be able to be pulled up without bringing the bottom cuff with it. • The metal top plates can remain unsecured for the time being, but they should be temporarily clipped over the wall to prevent them from falling backward. I • Check curved ends of the pool for roundness again, making sure that the stakes have not been moved and your pool is still a true oval shape. Fig. 53 Fig. 54 Be sure that the holes Be sure that the holes in the in the upright line up upright line up with the clips in with the clips in the the boot, and that they snap boot, and that snap securely in place securely in place. 1 I � i i ACCENT CLIP INSTALLATION_(Not elpllceble to all Models of pools): Some bottom cuffs and/or uprights have separate accent clips. This is a good time to snap those pieces on if your pool has these. Below are some examples of accent clips. Fig. 55 I. Fig. 56 0 1/4" I 1/16" Please note the difference of the accent clips for the resin boot and the steel Upright. For proper fit be sure to use the correct clips. STEP 17: LINER INSTALLATION If you opted to use the stabilizers to help hold the wall up, then you will need to take them off while installing the liner. Do not place the liner wall seam directly over the skimmer or skimmer return cutouts. Place the;liner at the center of the pool with the flap from the seams facing down. (For print liners, leave the print side facing up.) Spread the liner so that the bottom seam of the circumference is.resting ,on the cove evenly around the pool. The seam should not be up on the wall or shifted to one side. These conditions will cause tightness or stretching of the liner when the pool is being filled.

I STEP TS: HANGING LINER There are a few different types of liners on the market today. The three most common liners are the Overlap,the Snap Bead, and the V-Bead liners (Also referred to as J-Bead liners). Please be sure which one you have and follow the appropriate step below: TYPE#1 -OVERLAP LIFER: i Starting at the liner wall seam, hang the liner over the wall making sure that the seam is straight up and down, perpendicular to the floor. This will assure you that the liner begins going over the wall straight. As you put the liner over the wall you can secure it by using the plastic coping strips to keep it in place. If you end up with excess material, continue around the pool,-pulling excess liner evenly, and distribute over the wall until the excess is gone. Fig. 59 i Pig. 60 r Plastic coping Outside Liner overlap pool wall i Liner overlapping pool wall Plastic coping installed at this time to hold liner In place TYPE# 2—SLAP SEA® LINER: © With a snap bead liner you will not use the plastic coping strips SNAP BEAD LINER that are packed in the parts carton of many pools.

These pieces should be as close together as possible. Leaving spaces between bead tracks can cause liner problems down the road. Beaded ®Once all of the beaded liner track is on the wall, you can snap the Liner liner bead into the beaded liner track at four random points around the pool. After that is done, and you are satisfied with Pool Wall/ how the liner is situated within the pool, you can continue snap- ping the remainder of the liner into place around the pool. ® Go around the entire pool again making certain that the liner is Pool securely snapped into the track. This is important to confirm so water that the liner does not pull out while under the pressure of being filled with water. S'T'EP IS: HANGING LINER continued TYPE#3—J or V-BEAD LINER: J or V- EA® DINER © With a V-Bead liner you will not use the plastic coping strips that are packed in the parts carton of your pool. You can discard those Fig. 62 pieces, if they are included, as they only apply to pools with 71 overlap liners. Inner Stabilizer Rail (supplied with pool) ® The top of the wall of the liner has what is called a "V-Bead" welded onto it. Simply open up the bead with your fingers and Li Bead Liner hang it directly on top of the pool wall. When this is done properly, the only portion on the outside of the pool wall is approximately 1" of the V-Bead. No printed liner material is actually going over the top of the wall to the outside"of the wall. Pool wall © Make sure the bead is on evenly around the entire pool, and that the liner is hanging straight down from the top of the wall. The Pool liner should not have creases in it because it is twisting around Water the pool If the liner is twisting, it is because it is not sitting properly in the pool. Make necessary adjustments before proceeding. STEP 19: LINER ADJUSTMENT (For Overlap liners ONLY) Once the liner is held securely in place by coping, temporarily pull wrinkles in the floor towards the side wall evenly, leaving the wrinkles at the cove. When the liner is correctly positioned, there must be no air space between the liner and the ground or side wall. Remove wrinkles at the cove by adjusting the amount of material over the wall. Do not pull too tight- leave the slack on the sides. When a liner is properly installed there is no downward pressure on the Finer. The liner could pull in if it is hung too tightly. Start filling the pool. When the water is no more than 1" deep, check for levelness. If water runs to one side, pull back the liner and make the ground level. When level, continue to fill and adjust the liner. Do not cut the skimmer and skimmer return holes in the liner until fully adjusted and the pool is 1/3 filled.

WARD PRESSURE ON THE LINER CORRECT THIS CONDITION IF IT OCCURS. STEP 20—INNER STABILIZERINSTALLATION: LA'>IONe I When the liner is completely adjusted and the plastic coping is secured, the next step is to install the inner stabilizer rails. You should have four different size stabilizer rails (except for 12' X, 17' pools which only have three). You should have some 8" rails,'same 33" rails, four 37" rails, and an even number of longer rails which have one tapered side and one straight cut side. Separate stabilizers into different sizes now. A) Starting at the first upright on one of the curved sides, push one of the longest stabilizer rails over the coping so it fits snugly. Be sure to leave the straight cut end of the stabilizer slightly raised so that the next stabilizer can interlock as shown below. As they are progressively installed around the curved side of the pool note that the tapered end of the stabilizer easily telescopes irito the straight cut end of the previous stabilizer. The tapered end should be inserted approximately 1" into the adjacent stabilizer. This allows for adjustment either in or out. Continue this until you get to the last curved side upright and then do the same with the remaining "long" stabilizers on the other curved side. B) Once the curved sides have been completed find the four 37" stabilizer bars. Push these stabilizers over the coping in the "corners" in the same way with the exception that they do not interlock into any other rails. Remember,the"corners"are the space between the last straight side upright and the first curved side upright. There may be a small space between the stabilizers. C)The 33" stabilizer bars are also independent. These rails are used in the spaces between the straight side uprights. D)Finally,the 8" stabilizer bars are installed directly in front of each straight side upright. Because of the manner iii which the wall bends around the straight side upright these stabilizer bars are installed so that the ends of each bar are bending out away from the center of the pool.

Your pool and liner must be inspected regularly for leaks,corrosion,scratches,and punctures if any problem is found IMMEDIATE CORRECTIVE ACTION MUST BE TAKEN Small repairs and punctures in your liner may be easily repaired using repair kits available at your local dealer.Scratches on your pool wall&frame must be touched up with anti-rust enamel.Wire brush all rust and add a coat of enamel primer followed by a coat of color matching paint Pool water is full of various caustic chemicals,which will corrode metal parts. If any corrosion is allowed to continue,failure of the pool structure may occur which could result in excessive property damage as well as bodily harm The skimmer area and below it are particular areas that must be carefully and regularly inspected. If this area is wet,and remains wet for any'length of time,it usually means there is a small leak. Skimmer/skimmer return gaskets must be replaced when they become defective. Water must not be permitted to continually run down the wall, if neglected pool will break. If proper skimmer/skimmer return gasket care is not Maintained,your warranty will be void! Be sure to follow all local and state safety regulations when installing any accessory to your pool Any decks,and all entries,must be carefully mon- itored for safety and access to pool.Installing any other manufacturer's deck or slide is strictly forbidden! ! Winterizing r POW i During the winter your pool is subject to more stress than in the summer,and any breakage that is caused by incorrect winter procedures is not subject to any warranty with this company All of our pools and liners are designed to be left up all winter,but nonetheless are subject to the warranty of the liner being purchased.Continue to chlo- rinate and filter until the pool is closed down. Before closing down your pool for the winter you must make a complete inspection of the pool •Check all the connections to make sure everything is tight and in good condition Check to see that the liner is snugly held in place over the wall. o Check for any indication of rust or deterioration in any part IF ANY OF THE ABOVE IS FAULTY YOU MUST CORRECT THE SITUATION IMMEDIATELY. Lower the level of water to about one foot below the skimmer intake and return holes.Throughout the winter you must continually check this level,as it must not reach the skimmer holes at any time during the winter During the winter the pool requires the use of an equalizer to allow for the expansion and contraction that occurs when ice is formed and to hold cover up.This can be a product manufactured for this express purpose and is available at your swimming pool dealer. The use of a winterizing agent will simplify the start up of your pool next season. A cover designed for winter use is also recommended to keep pressure on the equalizer so it is forces into the water, keep dirt out,and at the same time, serve as a safety cover. If your skimmer is supplied with a winter plate and cap you must still follow the same steps as above.It is essential that no water be allowed to run down the wall for any period of time.If your skimmer did not come with the winter plate it is available at a nominal charge at your dealer and is recommended. M ®fnt wintew Rule After your pool has been winterized and all steps carefully followed,the following checks and procedures must be strictly followed during fall,winter,and spring seasons. Your pool warranty will be invalid if pool has been improperly winterized and the following procedures not strictly adhered to. Pools that have been incorrectly winterized have been known to collapse under the tremendous pressures exerted by ice and snow. A pool that is left up during the freezing temperatures must not be allowed to leak. It is not uncommon for a leak to develop during rigorous summer usage and go undetected.What is thought to be water loss due to evaporation or spillage may be caused by a small leak.Persistent wet area around pools should be inspected.To determine if your pool is leaking,mark the liner at the water level and closely observe the water level in the pool for a period of 10—12 days after pool is closed for the season.Any rain during this period may compensate for any undetected water leakage.Therefore observation period must be extended to find any leaks. Maintain a strict leak inspection schedule throughout fall,winter,and spring months.Spring thawing which frequently leads to ground heaving can be especially dan- gerous if care is not taken Maintain a strict inspection of'the inwall skimmer housing,to see that water is not leaking at the gasket.If skimmer was not removed water should not be allowed to collect in the skimmer housing as the water will freeze and crack the housing and cause possible damage to the wall Should ice,or anything else,cut your pool liner allowing the pool to empty,be sure to release the cover thereby removing the weight from the top of your pool Failing to do so can cause your pool to collapse. Consult your pool dealer for the proper winter chemicals for quick spring start up. During the course of the winter the liner may pull out of it's coping due to no,fault of the manufacturer or the pool installer Due to freezing and thawing of the ground, the ground sometimes sinks and the liner with the weight of ice or water will sink also,thusly pulling the liner out of it's coping Be sure to pull off all excess snow and ice from winter cover. Do not permit ice skating or horseplay during the winter as this°can cause pool and liner damage,as well as,serious injuries. f BRAVERMAN RESIDENCE 5700 ALVAH'S LANE EXIST. RAILING EXIST.
