STEP 3
When the assembly holes of the wall are aligned, you will be able to join them
together. To do this, place both ends of the wall on top of each other then place the
two steel bars, one inside, the other outside the wall. To help you align the holes of
steel bars to wall, insert two or three punch or screwdrivers into holes to keep joint
aligned. Then, insert screws and nuts provided for the wall (screw heads inside the
pool and nuts outside); do not tighten them for now.
Make sure all holes have screws and nuts. Once all screws and nuts are in
place, tighten them.
Tighten all the screws without forgetting any, because this could cause an
alignment problem.
The pool must be at on the entire perimeter. A swim-
ming pool that is not entirely leveled can be dangerous
and can collapse.
Screw heads must be inside the pool.
Use a torque wrench of 8.5 Nm (75’’ pd).

STEP 4
Cover the wall joint by applying two or three layers of 2” (50 mm) duct tape. Make
sure all screw heads are well covered with tape so that the liner is protected from
sharp corners of screws to avoid it from being torn or pierced.
STEP 5
Once the wall is assembled, make a nal check to make sure the pool is perfectly
round. To do this, check the diameter of the pool at dierent places so that each
dimension is identical. If this is not the case, adjust the bottom plates by pushing
them inside or outside accordingly to get a perfectly round pool.
Once the wall is installed check all the rail position. Each rail should be place at the
same number. Ex: 5 all the rail will be adjusted to 5.
COVE ASSEMBLY
STEP 1
If you are using a prefabricated cove, follow the instruction manual provided.
STEP 2
If you are using sand or soil to create the cove, we recommend putting a polyure-
thane plastic sheet to prevent contaminants that may contain sand and/or soil from
aecting the metal wall.
STEP 3
Once the plastic sheet in place, using sand or soil create a triangular shape ledge
along the bottom of the wall of 3’’ to 6’’ (7.5 cm to 15 cm) high by 8‘‘ to 12’’ (20 cm to
30 cm) long.
The cove is not optional, it must be installed (prefabricated or hand made).
STEP 4
Dampen and compact the sand cove. Make sure the center of the pool ground is at
and smooth because the liner will show the slightest defects of the ground.
