1. After ensuring that the drain fitting is plugged securely and the cap is in place, fill the pool with
about an inch of water. Then stop filling, and smooth out all wrinkles in the liner.
2. Gently tug the Vertical Legs outwards so that all legs are vertical and perpendicular to the ground.
center, the pool is not level enough, and must be corrected (See Section "Prepare the Site").
If your pool came with fittings, install both the Suction and Return fittings to the pool wall before filling the pool.
• The black rubber Gasket should always be slid over the threaded plastic suction or return fitting
and be on the inside before the fitting is placed through the pool wall to make a watertight
connection.
• Make sure to put on both the Water Cap and the Service Plug while you fill your pool, or until you
are ready to add a filtration system.
Install the filtration system as per the enclosed “Funsicle Filter Pump User Guide”.
Continue adding water to your pool to approximately 6 inches below the top rim.
NOTES:
• Your pool should be straight and vertical to the ground. If your pool is leaning to one side, the
ground may not be level, and you may need to restart the setup.
• Do not press the T-Fitting push button when filling the water in the pool or using the pool.
• Only press the T-Fitting push button when the pool is empty.
CAUTION: Always follow the chemical manufacturer’s directions, and the health and hazard warnings.
Do not add chemicals while the pool is occupied. This can cause skin or eye irritation. Concentrated chlorine
solutions can damage the pool liner. In no event is Polygroup, our buyer/retailers, or any other party liable for
costs associated with the loss of pool water, chemicals, or water damage. Keep spare filter cartridges on hand.
Replace cartridges every two weeks. We recommend the use of Funsicle Filter Pump with all of our
above-ground pools. To purchase a Funsicle Filter Pump or other accessories, visit our website at
funsicle.com or call Funsicle Customer Service.
Excessive Rain: To avoid damage to the pool and overfilling, immediately drain rain water that causes the
water level to be higher than the top rim.
Failure to follow the instructions above will cause the pool to collapse and will void the warranty.
Filling Your Pool

Min. Level
STEP 1: Prepare the site
Before assembling your pool, check the contents and become familiar with all the parts. Review all the
following warnings, guidelines and tips before proceeding with setup:
WARNINGS
• Do not overfill the pool and / or allow people to lay over or sit on pool wall - doing so can cause
permanent injury!
• Drain pool to the proper level after a heavy rain. The Maximum Water Level should be about 6
inches below the top rim.
• Site must be level, stable, compacted soil.
• Do not install pool on a wooden deck or any type of wooden surface. You cannot use sand and/or
uncompacted soil to provide a level surface for this pool; it will only wash out.
GUIDELINES
• The pool must be assembled on a smooth and level site of firm soil that is free of stones, gravel,
sticks, blacktop, or other oil base compounds.
• Before setting up your pool, clear the area of hardy grasses. Certain types of vigorous grasses such
as St. Augustine and Bermuda can grow through the liner. A ground cloth or tarp may be helpful in
preventing this from occurring. Grass growing through the liner is not covered under warranty.
• Failure to follow all these instructions will cause pool to collapse and will void the warranty!
TIP: It will be much easier to install your pool if you unfold it and let it lay in direct sunlight for about 2 hours
prior to installation. This will help to ensure a wrinkle-free fit because the pool material will be more pliable
allowing it to form into shape during installation.
GETTING STARTED
• Select a level area, and completely remove all debris, twigs, stones, etc. Do not select an area
under overhead electrical lines, trees, or within 15 feet of a house, building, etc.
• The pool shall be located a minimum distance of 6 ft (1.83 m) from any electrical receptacle.
• All 125 volt, 15 and 20 ampere receptacles located within 20 ft (6m) of the pool shall be protected
by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). The 20 ft (6 m) distance is measured via the shortest
straight line distance the supply cord would follow without piercing a floor, wall, ceiling, doorway,
window, or other permanent barrier.
• Contact your local utilities, checking that no underground cables, telephone lines, gas lines, etc. run
beneath the area you have selected.
STEP 2: Assemble the pool frame and connect it to liner
1. Lay all parts (located in Boxes 1, 2a & 2b) on the ground around the pool liner as shown below:
NOTE: Ensure the pool is between 10 to 21 feet away from any electrical outlets.
2. Take one horizontal beam and insert it to one T-Fitting to form a set (see following figure).
Horizontal Beam with T-Fitting Set
a) To insert, press and hold the push-button below the T-Fitting; then connect it to one end of the
horizontal beam.
b) Push the horizontal beam and T-Fitting together and release the push-button. It should snap
into place and lock the T-Fitting and horizontal beam together.
If they are securely attached, you could feel the end of the O-Pin from the base of the
Horizontal Beam.
NOTE: The Easy Link T-Fitting (located in Box 2b, in a plastic bag with “Easy Link T-Fitting” marking)
should be the FINAL T-Fitting to complete the top frame.
10. Look through the hole at the bottom of the T-Fitting, as you insert the Vertical Leg with Leg Cap,
rotate it until the buttons align with the holes and pop out, locking the Vertical Leg in place (see
following figure). Do this for all Vertical Legs.
NOTE: Each Vertical leg has a V-Shaped Spring Pin pre-installed. There is an extra pin included with
your pool parts.
TIP: To avoid distortion during the assembly of the pool frame, connect one Vertical Leg to Every
third T-Fitting so the frame can stand comfortably.
11. Continue working around the perimeter until the entire liner is securely connected to the frame. Go
around and check all T-Fittings, Push-buttons of O-Pins, Legs and Beams are properly installed and
secured in place (see following figure).
12. Make sure the poles are perpendicular to the ground (and not leaning!). This may require you to
adjust the vertical legs accordingly to make the walls straighter.
7. Slide this set into the sleeve to complete the top frame.
8. Insert the Vertical Legs into the Leg Caps.
9. Carefully slide the Vertical Legs up through the liner’s belt that runs around the middle of the pool,
and then lock each one into the hold of the T-Fitting (see following figure on the left).
TIP: For smaller pools without a belt, slide the vertical legs up through the sleeves on the pool wall
(see following figure on the right).
3. Carefully slide the horizontal beam set into the sleeves of the pool liner.
NOTE:
Make sure the vertical part of the T-Fitting faces down and away from the liner to avoid
puncturing the liner.
4. Repeat Step 2 to connect the rest of the horizontal beams and the T-Fittings.
5. Slide the next set of the horizontal beam with T-Fitting into the sleeve beside the first set (see
following figure). Then, link the open end of the horizontal beam with the T-Fitting of the first set.
Press the push-button while sliding the parts together. Release the push-button for the parts to
snap into place and lock tight.
6. Connect the Easy Link T-Fitting with the last horizontal beam (see following figure).
