POOL SETUP (continued)
You may have purchased this pool with the Intex Krystal Clear™ filter pump. The pump has
its own separate set of installation instructions. First assemble your pool unit and then set up
the filter pump.
Estimated assembly time 30-60 minutes. (Note the assembly time is only approximate and
individual assembly experience may vary.)
1. Liner preparation
• Find a flat, level location that is free and clear of stones, branches or other sharp objects
that may puncture the pool liner or cause injury.
• Open the carton containing the liner, joints, legs, etc., very carefully as this carton can be
used to store the pool during the winter
months or when not in use.
• Take out the ground cloth (10) (optional) and
spread it over the cleared area. Then take out
the liner (7) and spread it out over the ground
cloth, with the drain valve directed towards
the draining area. Place the drain valve
away from the house. Allow the sun to warm
up the liner before inserting the beams (6) into the sleeve openings.
IMPORTANT: Always set up the pool unit with at least 2 persons. Do not drag the
liner across the ground as this can cause liner damage and pool leakage (see
drawing 1).
• During the setup of this pool liner, point the hose connections or openings in the
direction of the electric power source. The outer edge of the pool should be within reach
of the pump’s electrical connection.
2. Frame assembly
• The frame pool’s legs (8) and beams (6) fall into two groups. The larger diameters are the
horizontal beams that are slid (pushed) into the sleeve openings at the top of the
liner. The smaller diameters are the vertical legs. Both these legs and beams fit into the
T-joints (3).
• Starting at any location, but always working in the
same direction, push the horizontal beam into the
sleeve. Once the beam is centered take one of the
T- joints and using the connection pin (1), attach the
joint to one end of the beam by inserting the pin
through the seal (2) and in the pre-drilled holes.
Repeat this procedure in a circular fashion until all
the beams and joints have been connected
(see drawing 2.1).
The last joint connection may be difficult to
complete. You can do it though, if you first
simultaneously raisethe last joint and beam
about 2 inches (5 cm). Now insert the beam into
the joint while lowering the pieces into position.
The beam will easily slide into the joint (see
drawing 2.2). Ensure that the last joint is fully
connected before proceeding to connecting
the legs.
