English
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• The power supply for your
swimming pool must be protected
by means of a residual current
circuit breaker (30 mA).
• Never take electrical equipment into your
swimming pool and never touch electrical devices
from inside the water.
• Free-standing lter systems/pumps exceeding 12
volts must be installed with a minimum distance
of 3 m from the pool, and a distance of 3.5 from
the pool for the current source.
• Please observe the DIN VDE 0100 part 702 for
all electrical installations of your pool.
SAFETY OF NON-SWIMMERS
• A permanent, active and watchful supervision
of weak swimmers and non-swimmers by a
competent, skilled adult supervisor is necessary
at all times (it should be remembered that the
greatest risk of drowning is among children under
5 years of age).
• A competent, skilled adult is appointed to monitor
the pool when it is used.
• Weak swimmers or non-swimmers must wear
personal protective equipment when using the
swimming pool.
• If the pool is not used or monitored, all toys must
be removed from the pool and its surroundings to
prevent that children are attracted by these.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS
The use of a swimming pool kit construction
presumes that the kit complies with the safety
regulations described in the operation and
maintenance manual. To prevent a drowning of
children, it is recommended to secure access to
the swimming pool. The access to the pool is to
be secured in such a way that children under 5
years cannot get into the pool water unnoticed.
You can protect the pool with a childproof fencing
or a childproof cover/roong of the complete pool,
with an additional alarm system, if desired. Safety
devices can make a pool safer, but never replace a
permanent supervision of children by an adult who
can help in an emergency.
While the pool is used, no equipment
used to access the swimming pool (e.g.
ladders) must be removed. When the
pool is no longer used, ladders must either be
completely removed from the pool or secured in
such a way that unauthorized access is not possible
(for example, we recommend using a safety ladder
with detachable, or foldable and lockable steps).

Assembly and Operating Instructions 'Standard' Pools

SAFE USE OF THE SWIMMING POOL
• Dives into the pool are not allowed, never jump
into shallow water (danger of serious injuries or
even death).
• Learn rst aid skills (cardiopulmonary
resuscitation CPR) and refresh your knowledge
regularly. This can make a lifesaving difference in
an emergency.
• All pool users, including children, are to be
instructed what to do in an emergency.
• Remove protecting covers completely before
using the pool, never dive under covers.
• Place the ladder to enter the swimming pool
on a secure, rm oor. Check regularly that all
connections are still tight and properly xed, and
that there is no damage.
• Never use the swimming pool when under the
inuence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
• Never mix water treatment chemicals, keep
chemicals for the swimming pool securely closed
and out of the reach of children.
• Never allow swimming alone; children or
non-swimmers may only use the pool under
supervision and, if necessary, with swimming
aids. All users, especially children, are
encouraged to learn how to swim.
• Please use the enclosed safety labels and x
them in a clearly visible place in the area of your
swimming pool (within 2000 mm).
• Place life-saving equipment (bars, safety buoys,
rst aid emergency numbers) near the pool.
• Ensure a regular measurement of pH and
disinfectant levels, since this is the only way you
can prevent the spreading of germs (bacteria,
viruses, etc.) in the water. Please have a shower
before and after swimming. Never enter or jump
into the water when you are overheated.
• Never sit down on the edge of the pool and do
not cause excessive water movement, especially
in case of free-standing pools.
• Avoid running around the swimming pool (danger
of slipping).
• Never allow animals (dogs, cats, sh) to swim in
your swimming pool.
• Never use the pool in the dark or in dangerous
weather (lightning, thunder, thunderstorm).
• Never swim or dive between the ladder and the
pool wall (danger of getting trapped).
• Keep a working phone and a list of emergency
numbers near the swimming pool.
• Never climb directly out of the pool, always use
the ladder. Excessive pressure and kicks against
the pool wall can cause damage to or breakdown
of the swimming pool. Never sit on the basin
edge/top rail
• Do not use any sharp-edged cleaning devices or
toys, which could damage the lining (inside).
• Check all screw connections on a regular basis
and make sure that there are no sharp corners or
edges on the pool or on accessories (e.g. ladder),
which could involve a risk of injury.

CHOOSING A LOCATION
Please clarify rst if the selected swimming pool
can be built at the chosen location without a building
permit and without further ofcial formalities. Please
take into account that there must be no pipes (gas,
water, electricity, telephone, etc.) in the installation
area of your new swimming pool. Built-in (inground/
semi-inground) swimming pools (not recommended
for Standard pools) must not be installed in the area
of strata water or ground water.
Sunny location: We recommend to select
a location that provides a maximum of solar
radiation per day.
Trees: There should be no trees in the
immediate vicinity of the pool, since they may
cause pollution (foliage, needles, pollen) and
excess shading.
Wind: Use the main wind direction in such a way
that dirt that falls on the water surface is driven
towards the skimmer.
Logistics/neighbours: To operate your
swimming pool, you need electricity (protected
by a residual current circuit breaker), water to
rell, and a sewage connection/sewer pipe. You
should place the pool as close to the house
as possible, if necessary next to the terrace.
However, you should always ensure that
technical problems will not result in damage to
the house (e.g. leaking water owing into the
basement). Be also careful that neighbours are
not disturbed excessively, and ensure that the
site is well protected (privacy), if possible.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Please note that all of our Standard swimming pools
(steel wall thickness up to 0.35 mm) are designed
as above-ground swimming pools. An in-ground
installation is not recommended for these pools.
If you should still decide to install your pool in the
ground, this will void your warranty (in particular
with regard to the steel wall). When pools are
installed in the ground, it is mandatory that the pool
is provided with a surrounding concrete backll
(thickness 20 cm) throughout the installation area. It
is recommended in addition to insulate the steel wall
from the outside with a Styrodur panel (thickness 2
cm) to protect it from direct contact with the concrete.
Before setting the pool up, check that all required parts are available according to the attached parts list:
Round pool kits: 1 x Steel wall
1 x Liner
1 x Pack of prole rails
1 x Screw set

PREPARING THE TOP RAIL FOR A ROUND POOL
The best substrate for your swimming pool is a
concrete slab (thickness approx. 20 cm), which must
be perfectly level (terraces, paved areas, etc. are
critical/not suitable, since they use slopes).
1. Mark the required oor space by driving a
pole in and drawing a circle with a cord and
marking spray or our bottle.
Alternatively, you can do without a concrete slab in
case of small round pools if you take the following
into account:
2. Remove grass, ground cover/plant cover, and
roots completely.
3. Excavate soil until the ground is perfectly
level (never backll and do not use sand to ll
up). The ground must be perfectly level, with
a max. deviation = 1 cm on the entire oor
space, load bearing capacity of the ground per
meter basin depth = 1 ton.
The pool must be set up on natural ground, never on
a slope. Please compact the ground with a vibrating
plate. The diameter of the installation space for the
pool should exceed the actual pool diameter by at
least 20 cm.

INSTALLING THE FLOOR PROTECTION
FLEECE
After the foundation has been properly prepared
and is perfectly level, you must cover the ground
with a synthetic oor protection eece (not included
in the delivery). Clean the surface thoroughly once
again and remove all stones/unevenness, which
could be dangerous for the liner.
Place the eece either end-to-end and secure with
double-sided adhesive tape, or allow it to overlap
(i.e. covering the edges). The eece should exceed
the pool dimensions by about 10 cm on the outside
(if no protective eece is used, there is no warranty
on the liner).
ASSEMBLING THE FLOOR RAILS
The next step is assembling the oor rail segments
with the connecting tubes.
Please note that the oor rails must be shortened to
the length of the steel wall.
STEEL WALL SETUP
Do not set the pool up in case of strong winds.
There should be at least 3 people to help so that the
steel wall does not bend/tilt over. To stabilize the
wall during assembly, the top rail segments can be
temporarily attached on the top of the raised steel
wall. Please wear protective gloves as the steel wall
can have sharp edges. Place the steel wall on a
wooden board and carefully roll it apart. Insert the
steel wall into the oor rails (white side outwards). It
may be helpful to push the oor rails into the steel
wall from below with a board.

Assembly and Operating Instructions 'Standard' Pools
English
13
STEEL WALL ASSEMBLY
Assemble the ends of the steel wall securely with
the screws (from the inside to the outside and
connected to washer and nut). To provide additional
stabilization, assemble also the two fasting rails
both from the outside and the inside as shown in the
illustration. To prevent damage to the liner at a later
time, it is important to pad the round screw heads
with adhesive tape from the inside.
Liner installation
Please note that liners for swimming pools are
always supplied undersized, so that they can
unfold against the pool wall without wrinkles
after installation. The PVC liner is made of a
thermoplastic material which becomes more
exible/soft with increasing outside temperatures.
The outside temperature should therefore be around
20° to 25° Celsius. Never drag the liner over the
oor, and never step on it with shoes.
Depending on the chosen model, you have either
a so-called overlap liner (which is pulled over the
edge and xed with the top rail), or beaded liner
(this is a welded reinforcement on the liner which is
hung on the steel wall). Most of the Standard pool
models are as standard supplied with an overlap
liner.
To assemble, install the liner in the pool (if
possible, expose it to the sun for ½ hour before the
installation to eliminate wrinkles) and align it roughly.
Then place the liner over the edge (with an overlap
of approx. 10 cm) and x it temporarily using clothes
pegs. The welding seam between the bottom and
the wall should be approximately at the level of the
oor rails. Then ll in approx. 2 cm of water (while
doing so, you can check again if the pool is really
level (horizontally). The water level should be the
same over the entire surface). With this water level,
you can easily remove all wrinkles by pushing the
2cm
Max. 85-110 cm
(depending on model)
liner outwards and modifying the overlap. Once the
liner is properly positioned, remove the clothes pegs
and carefully attach the top rail (segments). Shorten
the last segment of the top rail and the last oor
rail with an hacksaw. The pool can then be lled up
to the maximum ll level = 85 cm. Never leave the
swimming pool without water to avoid destabilizing
it. Do not cut off the overlapping liner.

POOL SETUP (FIGURE-8 SHAPED POOLS)
There are 3 different mounting options:
• Above ground / ground level
• Semi-inground
Possible – but not recommended!
(Attention, the built-in part of the pool requires a
lean concrete backll.)
• Completely inground
Possible – but not recommended!
(Possible only with a lean concrete backll (20 –
30 cm.) The pool must always be lled with water,
never leave without water for a longer period.
PREPARATION OF FOUNDATION
FOR FIGURE-8 SHAPED POOLS
Mark the oor space by driving in two pegs spaced
at distance A (see table), and use a cord (length see
table) and a marking spray or our bottle to draw
two circles:
We recommend to install your gure-8 shaped
swimming pool on a concrete slab with iron
reinforcement (thickness 20 cm). It is imperative that
the ground has a load bearing capacity of at least
1.2t (pool depth 1.20 m) or 1.0t (pool depth 0.90 m).
The ground must be perfectly level, with a maximum
deviation of 1 cm on the entire oor space. Larger
deviations involve the risk of the entire swimming
pool collapsing.
The diameter of the installation area for the pool
should exceed the actual pool diameter by at
least 20 cm (see cord length to table). In case of
an inground installation, adjust the cord length
according to the wall backll (in case of ground
pressure, we recommend a 30 cm lean concrete
backll). In this case, increase the cord length by 10
cm (see table).

It is mandatory to provide a trench with a width of
240 mm and a depth of 255 mm in the middle of the
concrete slab. This is where the steel slab will be
inserted (recessed) and xed with concrete later.
(For length of the trench, see table on page 15).
The steel girder is ush-mounted into the base plate
(approx. 22.5 cm, up to the height of the fastening
plates of the oor rail connecting pieces):

INSTALLING THE FLOOR PROTECTION
FLEECE AND THE FLOOR RAILS
After the substrate has been prepared, spread out
the oor protection eece (not part of delivery for
every pool). Either allow the edges to overlap (which
may be visible through the liner) or place the eece
end-to-end and x it with double-sided adhesive
tape from below. Then assemble the oor rails by
plugging them into the connectors. Always start
with the oor rail connectors on the steel girder.
The correct length of the oor rails can only be
determined after the steel wall has been adjusted;
the oor rails must be shortened accordingly, if
required.
Attention: For gure-8 shaped pools,
we always deliver 2 complete sets of
bottom rails for the respective round
pool size (e.g. for a gure-8 shaped
pool 470 x 300 cm, we deliver 2 sets of oor rails

TIPS FOR WINTERIZING
All our steel wall swimming pools are winterproof.
They can be lled with water also in the winter
(water level in the pool at least three-quarters).
Never leave the pool without water over the winter.
We recommend to add a winter preservative when
winterizing your pool, which makes the basic
cleaning in the spring much easier. After you added
the winter preservative (set the lter system to
the "Circulation" position for about 15 minutes to
ensure a good distribution), the lter system can be
demounted (for sand lter systems, please remove
the quartz sand completely and store the lter
system in the frost-free area). In case of cartridge
lters, leave the water level unchanged. For sand
lter systems, lower the water level to below the
skimmer edge, close the inlet nozzle with a winter
protection cap, and remove the hose from the
skimmer so that rainwater is drained. Underground
pipes/pipe systems are to be emptied to avoid any
damage or defects caused by freezing.
In the autumn, the pool should be covered with a
winterproof tarpaulin and closed so it is childproof.
Access to the pool must be blocked to avoid
drowning. When the water level has been lowered
for the winter, ensure that the used cover tarpaulin is
sufciently large to rest on the surface of the water
If a cavity should form under the cover tarpaulin,
this may result in bigger damage to the swimming
pool (up to a bending of the steel wall) due to the
pressure of rainwater.
GENERAL INFORMATION
• Use only tap water and never well water to ll
your swimming pool. Well water is often highly
ferruginous. When water care agents are added,
the pool water can turn brownish in colour.
• Set the correct pH value of the water Immediately
after the installation, and carry out a rst shock
chlorination (alternatively, use other water care
agents, if desired).
• If you use a cartridge lter, do not use a
occulant, as this may clog the lter cartridges.
• Never add water care agents directly to the water,
but add chlorine tablets, for example, via a dosing
oat.
• Rell fresh water regularly.
• This swimming pool is designed for installation as
freestanding pool only, it is in no case suitable for
an in-ground installation. (Non-observance will
void your warranty.)
• The pool must always be lled with water, since
otherwise it will lose its stability. In addition, the
liner could shrink when there is no water in the
pool.
• Fill water no higher than max. 5 cm below the
top rail.
• The lter system should run about 6 to 8 hours
every day. Please remember to clean the lter
cartridges regularly, or replace them after 6
weeks.
• The oor should be cleaned regularly
with a oor cleaner/suction device.
