Pro Series Round Frame Pool

Locate a flat, level area to set up the pool. Make sure the ground is free from sharp objects that may puncture the pool
Carefully unfold the pool and inspect seams for manufacturing defects. Lay the pool flat on the ground. Let the pool sit in the sun for at least 2 hours prior to installation. This will help ensure a wrinkle-free fit because the pool material will be more pliable, allowing it to form into shape during installation.
Locate the horizontal beams (shorter beams with a larger diameter and holes on the ends) and insert them into the pockets stitched along the top edge of the pool wall. Rotate them in the pockets so the holes are on the top and bottom of the pipe protruding from each end of the pocket.
Locate the T-fittings and begin attaching them to the horizontal beams, aligning the holes as you go. Do not install any of the pins at this time. Continue around the pool installing all the T-fittings onto the horizontal beams.
When you reach the last connection, install the last T-fitting on the end of one of the beams. Lift up on both of the last two beams in order to get them to insert into the T-fitting. Angle them toward each other and guide the beam into the fitting as you lower them both down together.
Begin inserting pins and grommets down through the top of the T-fittings until the pin snaps into place on the lower side of the fitting.
Locate the vertical legs, which come pre-installed with spring pins at the top end. Insert the leg down through the belt that runs around the middle of the pool. Connect them into the top frame by pushing the buttons in as you insert the leg into the T-fitting. Ensure the buttons pop out of the T-fitting to confirm that the vertical leg is locked in place.
Insert plastic leg caps on the bottoms of the vertical legs.
Check for stability. Make sure all fittings, legs and beams properly fit. All of the pins should be securely fastened in all of the holes. Grab the vertical legs at the bottom and gently pull them out making sure they remain vertical and perpendicular to the top ring.
On some larger pools, you will need to place the strap ring that comes in the box on top of the pool frame and slide it all the way down to the leg caps. Strap ring showed below highlighted in yellow.
Install the filtration system. This schematic illustrates how the SFS Filtration System is installed with a Pro Series Round Frame Pool.
Make sure the drain fitting is securely plugged and the cap is in place. Start filling the pool with water until it reaches an inch of water. Stopfilling the pool and smooth the wrinkles out of the bottom of the pool, making sure the bottom is flat and round equally in all directions.
Continue filling the pool with water and continue to check the vertical legs and make sure they remain vertical and perpendicular to the top ring.
