STEP 14: WALL INSTALLATION (cont.)
The several different kinds of slats that go on your pool are to be located in a specific order. The diagram below
shows the pattern of slat types plates once your slat wall assembly is eventually completed. Frame uprights and top
rails are shown at this time for general reference only. Note that beam slats are always centered around bottom plates
and uprights.
Continue to install slats until you have a section of wall about five feet long. Once you have completed a five-foot
section, you are ready to start installing the pool frame upright onto the pool wall.
*
This is a good time to start the pre-assembly of the uprights.
It is easiest to line all uprights next to each other in a line. It
helps to lean them against a fence or some other sturdy
object. On most models the top of the uprights can be
identified by either an extra hole in the middle, or by an
extra hole on each side (depending on which pool you have)
for the decorator caps. Place the metal top plate on the
upright making sure the holes line up and the hooked part of
the plate is facing the open end of the upright (the side that
goes against the pool wall). Now put a #10 x ½” screw in
the center hole only. Do not install screws in the two side
holes until later. This will make things easier and more
efficient later down the line.
Now install the fence post holders onto the uprights,if you
have purchased a fence to go around your pool (see separate
instructions)
. If not, or when that is completed, you should
line the uprights around the pool at every bottom plate for your
convenience later on.
