The next step is best accomplished with two people. Glue
the assembly (A), made up in the previous step, to the Ball
Valve (B). Attach the other end of the assembly to the
outlet of the Heater-Controller. Again, make sure there is a
T-Gasket (C) installed between the Heater-Controller and
Tailpiece prior to tightening the Heater-Controller Union (D).
The Heater-Controller Union can be taken apart by removing
the two set screws to make this step easier (Fig. 28).

Remove the Lock Ring (A) from the Skimmer Housing (B) and
place the housing into the opening of the Skimmer Shroud
Lid (C). Re-install the Lock Ring (Fig. 30). The Lock Ring
should be tightened to the point where the skimmer housing
is seated firmly against the shroud lid, but loose enough so
that the housing can rotate for any adjustment that may be
required once the skimmer is installed in the pool.
