POOL SET UPIMPORTANT SITE SELECTION AND GROUNDPREPARATION INFORMATION

WARNING

The pool location must allow you to secure all doors, windows, and safety barriers to prevent unauthorized, unintentional or unsupervised pool entry.

Install a safety barrier that will eliminate access to the pool for young children and pets.

Failure to set up the pool on flat, level, compact ground and in accord with the following instructions could result in the pool’s collapse or the possibility that a person lounging in the pool could be swept out, resulting in serious injury or property damage.

Risk of electric shock: connect the filter pump only to a grounding type receptacle protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). To reduce risk of electric shock, do not use extension cords, timers, plug adapters or converter plugs to connect the pump to electric supply; provide a properly located outlet. Locate cord where it will not be damaged by lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment. See Filter Pump manual for additional warnings and instructions.

Select an outdoor location for the pool with the following in mind:

1.The area where the pool is to be set up must be absolutely flat and level. Do not set up the pool on a slope or inclined surface.

2.The ground surface must be compacted and firm enough to withstand the pressure and weight of a fully set up pool. Do Not set up the pool on mud, sand, soft or loose soil conditions.

3.Do Not set up the pool on a deck or platform.

4.The pool requires at least 5 - 6 feet (1.5 - 2.0m) of space all around pool from objects that a child could climb on to gain access to the pool.

5.Pool will kill the grass. Splash out could damage vegetation. Certain types of grass such as St. Augustine and Bermuda, may grow through the liner.

6.If the ground is not concrete (i.e., if it is asphalt, lawn or earth) you must place a piece of pressure-treated wood, size 15” x 15” x 1.2” (38 x 38 x 3cm), under each U-shaped support and flush with the ground. Alternatively you may use steel pads or reinforced tiles.

7.Consult your local pool supply retailer for advice on support pads.
