Using the chart below determine the quantity of strap assemblies for your pool. The screws joining the straps must be inserted from the top to prevent the screw putting a hole in the liner once the pool is filled with water. 18' x 12' . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2 30' x 15' & 33' x 18' . . . . . . . . . . . . .4 24' x 12' . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .3 39' x 18' . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .6 24' x 15' . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .3 45' x 18' . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .7 STRAP ASSEMBLY FOR OVAL POOLS SIZES 18’ x 12’ 24’ x 12’ Buttress Bottom Plate 5/16” - 18 x 1/2” Hex Head Screws 5/16” - 18 Hex Nuts Buttress Brace Bracket 5/16” WashersStraps SIZES 24’ x 15’ 30’ x 15’ Buttress Bottom Plate 5/16” - 18 x 1/2” Hex Head Screws 5/16” - 18 Hex Nuts Buttress Brace Bracket 5/16” Washers Straps SIZES 33’ x 18’ 39’ x 18’ 45’ x 18’ Buttress Bottom Plate 5/16” - 18 x 1/2” Hex Head Screws 5/16” - 18 Hex Nuts Buttress Brace Bracket 5/16” WashersStraps 5/16” - 18 x 1/2” HEX HEAD BOLT 5/16” WASHER 5/16” - 18 HEX NUT EXAMPLE OF BASIC LAYOUT Bottom Plate Transition Rails Transition Rails Transition Rails Transition Rails EXAMPLE OF BASIC LAYOUT Bottom Plate Transition Rails Transition Rails Transition Rails Transition Rails BOTTOM RAIL AND STRAP LAYOUT Follow the instructions below to properly layout the rail and strap assemblies.

NOTE: the UP arrow on wall. Determine starting point as the filter inlet and outlet holes are at the beginning of the wall. Starting at the center of a bottom plate insert the bottom edge of the wall into the groove on the bottom rail. Ensure that the center line of the closure holes in the the wall align with the center of the plate. Make sure that the cutouts for filter inlet and outlet are on the top portion of the wall and will not be hidden behind a vertical. If the wall ends do not meet, adjust the bottom rail in or out of the bottom plates. The spacing in all bottom plates should be equal. INSERT WALL INTO BOTTOM RAILS SKIMMER INLET 4’ x 4’ Plywood SKIMMER OUTLET "B" as a reference. Form the two end semicircles by sliding the long bottom rail groove up, into the bottom plates. Lay out the strap assemblies as shown removing the stakes as you go. The distance from strap to strap is 48". Install the 45.” bottom rail in between each strap as shown. All rails are curved, including the 45.” used on the straight side. Bring the required amount of sifted earth or pre- washed sand into the pool area at this time. Refer to chart on the right for the required minimum amount. Place patio blocks under all bottom plates and end of strap assemblies.

GROUND SHIELD AND WALL GUARD ARE OPTIONAL Spread a ground shield or plastic sheeting over prepared ground (not included). Ground Shield and Wall Guard are available from your local pool supply dealer or polyethylene sheeting can be purchased from a local hardware supply. This will protect your pool liner and metal parts against chemical reactions from the ground soil.

DO NOT LEAVE ANY OPEN HOLES TIGHTEN EACH SCREW TO 85 INCH POUNDS. Insert the 1/4" - 20x3/4" truss head screws from inside the pool through the preattached inside closure bar, through inside and outside wall ends, and through outside closure bar. The 1/4" serrated flange nuts are secured to the screws on the outside of the wall. All the holes must match and be secured together with the screws and nuts provided. Tighten each screw and nut to 85 inch pounds of torque. If no torque wrench is available, tighten each nut until snug. Then tighten each nut one (1/2) half additional turn. If nut appears to be lose after tightening, please check if the screw is stripped or broken. It must be replaced. During this assembly procedure, make sure that one washer is on the inside of the pool, and one washer in on the outside o...
