Insert the wall tracks on each side of the joiner plates,
making sure to leave a 1.3 cm (½") space etween the
ends of oth tracks, in the center of the joiner plate (See
Illustration 4.1).
Make a complete circle, using half of the wall tracks and
joiner plates found in the pool kit (See Chart and
Illustration 4.2).
BOTTOM WALL TRACKS ASSEMBLY

Before uncoiling the wall, make sure the pre-punched
holes for the skimmer and pump return are at the top and
facing the planned location of your filter.
Begin inserting the wall into the ottom wall tracks in the
middle of a joiner plate. At first, the wall should e kept in
place with one or two support ars (or extra persons).
One person should uncoil the wall on a eam or a plank
while a second person inserts it in the ottom wall tracks.
Do not uncoil more than 3 m (10') of wall efore you
install a support ar to reinforce the structure.
Once the wall is completely uncoiled, you may find that it
is too long or that oth ends do not meet y a few cen-
timetres. If such is the case, you must gently push the
wall in or out. If this does not work, roll up the wall again,
realign the grooves and uncoil the wall once more. If the
spread is too wide, measure the wall and check it against
the following chart.
When you prepare to join the ends of the wall, make sure
the end that is reinforced y the fold is inside the circle,
facing the liner and that the other end faces outward (See
Illustration 5.1). When the wall joint is screwed, install the
round sta iliser on top of it.
IMPORTANT: Due to the enormous pressure exerted y
the water on the steel wall, it is a solutely essential that all
bolts are screwed in tightly and that no hole is left open.
All olt heads must e inside with washer and nut outside.
Cover all olt heads with heavy fa ric tape.

Dig a hole 30 cm (12") wide y approximately 25 cm
(10") deep in the center of the circumference.
From the center hole to the projected location of the pool
motor, dig a 15 cm (6") wide trench. Place the removed
soil aside to e used later to cover the hose.
Bottom Drain Assembly
Place teflon around the threaded plug. Screw in drain
holes using large pliers. Glue the connector in the appro-
priate opening.
Take one of the two ru er rings and adjust it to the top of
the drain, aligning the holes carefully. Secure with strips
of adhesive tape to prevent sand from penetrating inside
the holes once the drain has een installed.
Secure one end of the long lack or white hose inside the
drain spout. First apply glue on the drain spout and inside
the drain end, then secure with one or two collars.
Cut the hose so that it ends with the stone dust (or sand).
Measure the pool radius from the center of the drain, then
add 15 cm (6").
Place the assem led ottom drain in the hole so that it is
approximately 1.3cm (1/2") higher than the surface soil.
Bury the hose, levelling the drain as much as possi le.
Compact the soil, using your feet and a tampering tool as
well.
Mix three (3) shovels of stone or sand dust with one half
shovel of pure cement, adding a small quantity of water,
then pour the cement around the drain until it reaches 1.3
cm (1/2") from the top.
