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 tighten- ing, please check if the screw is stripped or broken. It must be replaced.

From the inside of the pool, insert a 3/8 Truss Head screw through the washer, through the holes on the inside and outside wall ends, and through the second washer.

Fasten with 3/8 serrated flange nut on the outside of the pool having the flange of the nut face the washer. Only hand tighten the nuts at this point. Continue for each hole in the wall ends.

Tighten all screws and nuts to 85 inch pounds. If no torque wrench is available, tighten each nut until snug. Then tighten each nut one half (1/2) additional turn.

If nut appears to be lose after tightening, please check if the screw is stripped or broken. If it is, it must be replaced.

Overtightening the nuts could cause the screws to fracture which could result in pool failure. Failure to tighten the nuts sufficiently could also result in pool failure.

This is one of the most important structural assembly aspects you will perform. Be absolutely sure you have assembled the wall as shown above for your pool.

Manufacturer can not assume the responsibility of the performance of this product if the
