Intex 28214 - Setting up the Pool

Assembly
17
• The subsurface must be flat and even. The pool must not stand on a slope or an
inclined subsurface.
• The subsurface must be sufficiently stable to withstand the weight of a full pool.
The pool must not be positioned on muddy, sandy or loose ground.
• The pool must not be assembled on a terrace, balcony or podium that could
break under the weight of the full pool.
• There must be a gap of 1.2 metres around the pool so that children cannot climb
up on anything and fall into the pool.
• Any grass under the pool will be damaged. Pool water can damage plants when
it is drained.
• Aggressive grasses must be removed before assembly. Certain grass types, such
as St. Augustine and Bermuda, can grow through the pool liner. If grass does
grow through or into the pool liner, this is not a production fault and no claims
may be made under the warranty.
• The ground must allow the pool to be drained of all water after every use and/or
if the pool is stored for a long time.
Setting up the pool
This pool is supplied with a pump and a skimmer. The pool must first be assembled.
The pump and skimmer are then fitted.
Preparing the pool liner
An underlay sheet is not supplied. However, we strongly recommend setting the pool
up on an underlay sheet to protect the pool liner from damage.
1. Find a level, even subsurface for the pool that is free from stones, branches and
other sharp or pointed objects so that the pool liner
1
is not damaged.
2. Spread an underlay sheet on the prepared ground.
3. Then spread the pool liner out on the underlay sheet. The outlet valve
14
must
be on the correct side (to allow you to drain the water better). Position the pool in
such a way that the outlet valve is not on the same side as the house.
Assembling the frame
The uprights
4
and the crosspieces
8
are different. The crosspieces have a larger
diameter and must be fed through the openings in the loops around the top of the
pool. The uprights have a smaller diameter. The uprights and the crosspieces both fit
into the T-connectors
2
.
During assembly, the hose connections

/

must face the power source. The
outer end of the assembled pool must be accessible for a power supply, which is re-
quired for the pump.
