When you unpacked the bottom wall rim you should have noticed the three different size rails (except if you
have a 12' x 17' pool, in which case you only have two different sizes.) Some of the rails are 37 ½" long and some
are 39"

he bottom wall rims are wider.
Metal Bottom Wall Rim
A) The 37 ½" long bottom wall rims go in between the straight side uprights. You simply press them down inside the straight
side bottom connector on each side. These wall rims will eventually need to be sitting flat on the ground, but you can
do that as you are leveling the pool.
B) The four 39" bottom wall rims are for the "corners." One side snaps into the straight side connector on the final straight side
upright, while the other side slides into a bottom plate or bottom cuff.
C) You should have an even number of the longest bottom wall rims, as well as, an even number of bottom plates or
bottom cuffs (depending on the model pool you have.) These will form the curved ends of your pool. Half of these
wall rims and plates/cuffs will go on one end and the other half on the other end. Slide each wall rim into the plate,
or cuff, up to the stop as shown. Be sure that the plate, or cuff, is outside of the half circle created on each side of
the pool. Once all wall rims are assembled, you should now be able to see the entire shape of the oval pool on the
