skimmer;
■ install the liner.
When filling the pool, once the level of water has reached 5 or 6cm from the outlet, install the outlet as follows (as illustrated in
diagram 2):
■ Cut the liner to accommodate the outlet using a cutting knife (as shown in diagram), and fold the cut edges over the wall.
■ From within the pool, position the rubber seal and outlet.
■ From outside the pool, fit the rubber seal and plastic securing nut.
■ Fit the threaded union (apply Teflon tape to the threading) outside the pool.
■ Fit the annelated pipe and tightening collar.
■ Connect the annelated pipe to the valve (swimming pool return line) of the sand-based purifier (threaded union with Teflon tape applied to it, and
tightening collar).
NOTE
! All threaded unions should have Teflon tape applied to their threading. The tape should be unwound in the opposite direction of
tightening onto the threading.
■ When the water level in the pool is 5 or 6 cm below the skimmer,
continue and assemble the skimmer by proceeding as follows
(see diagram 1):
■ Press an object against the liner (such as a biro top) to
locate the holes of the section cut out from the sheet
metal.
■ Use a crosshead screw driver to puncture through the
liner into these holes.
■ Position the rubber seal against the liner.
■ Position the securing plate against the rubber seal.
■ Screw the plate onto the sheet metal.
■ Screw the threaded union (coated with Teflon tape),
the pipe and the tightening collar onto the skimmer.
■ Cut the liner away from in front of the skimmer, working
from within the pool.
■ Connect the annelated pipe of the skimmer to the
filtration system.
■ Allow the level of water to rise until the skimmer is half
underwater.
■ Make sure there is a satisfactory seal and re-tighten the
WARNING
: Never permanently install the skimmer or
the outlet before the water arrives to within a few centimetres
of them, because the liner has to be
properly pulled taut with the pressure of the water.
15 - Advice for Routine Maintenance and Use
Do not dive into the pool. Do not walk on the step stones.Failure to comply with the routine maintenance
instructions can cause serious health risks, particularly for children.
FILTRATION
It is essential to have a satisfactory filtration system to eliminate suspended matter (sand-based purifier, cartridge filter, filtering skimmer, etc.).
During the season in which your pool is in use, the filtration system should be run every day for a sufficiently long period of time to ensure at least one
turnover of the volume of water every 24 hours (the minimum length of time during for which the filtration system should be run will depend on how
much the pool is used and on the water temperature). You are recommended to divide the filtration period into three time spells.

ACCESSORIES
The following accessories are essential for satisfactory routine maintenance of your pool: surface accessories (such as strainer), pool-bottom
accessories (such as a cleaning machine), and inspection and repair accessories (such as a repair kit).
CHEMICAL TREATMENT
3 operations are necessary for treating the water:
■ Adjustment of the pH of the water, using an analysis kit and a pH corrector.
The pH (potential hydrogen) indicates the degree of acidity or alkalinity of the water. The ideal level for a swimming pool
is a pH as close as possible to that of lacrymal liquid, i.e. 7.4.
■ Prevention of algae, using an algae-prevention product.
■ Disinfection of the water, using chlorinated products to kill micro-organisms.
These operations should be performed at least once a week. Water treatment products should be stored away from damp, in ventilated premises,
and out of reach of children.
