CHOOSE THE CORRECT LOCATION
NOTE:
The pool must be set up on a completely flat and level surface. Please do not install the pool if the
surface is inclined or sloped.
Correct conditions to set up the pool:
• The selected location has to be capable of uniformly supporting the weight for the entire time the pool is installed,
moreover the location must be flat and must be cleared of all objects and debris including stones and twigs.
• We recommend positioning the pool away from any objects children could use to climb into the pool.
NOTE:
Position the pool near an adequate drainage system to deal with overflow or to discharge the pool.
Incorrect conditions to set up the pool:
• On uneven ground the pool may collapse causing serious personal injury and/or damage to personal property and will
void the warranty and prevent any service claims.
• Sand should not be used to create a level base; the ground must be dug out if necessary.
• Directly under overhead power lines or trees. Be sure the location does not contain underground utility pipes, lines or
cables of any kind.
• Do not set up the pool on driveways, decks, platforms, gravel or asphalt surfaces. The selected location should be firm
enough to withstand the pressure of the water; Mud, sand, soft / loose soil or tar are not suitable.
• Grass or other vegetation under the pool will die and may cause odors and slime to develop, therefore we recommend
removing all grass from the selected pool location.
• Avoid areas prone to aggressive plant and weed species that may grow through the ground cloth or liner.
NOTE:
Check with your local city council for by-laws relating to fencing, barriers, lighting and safety
requirements and ensure you comply with all laws.
NOTE:
If have a filter pump, refer to the pump's manual for instructions.
NOTE:
The ladder must match the pool size and should to be used only for entering and exiting the pool. It is
forbidden to exceed the permitted payload of the ladder. Check regularly if the ladder is properly assembled.
Installation
Bestway Inflatables will not be responsible for damage caused to the pool due to mishandling or failure to follow these
instructions.
1. Lay out all parts and check that you have the correct quantities as listed in the components list. If you are missing
any part do not assemble the pool, contact Bestway Customers Service.
2. Spread out the pool and make sure the pool is right side up, let it sit exposed to direct sunlight for 1 hour or more so
that the pool is more flexible during set up.
3. Place the pool near an adequate drainage system to deal with overflow water and ensure the pool's inlet A and outlet
B are correctly positioned to allow your filter pump to connect to a power source.
NOTE:
Do not use extension power cords to power your pump.
pool on the ground, this can damage the pool.
4. Insert the stopper plugs into inlet A and outlet B on the wall from the inside of the pool. (See Fig.1)
NOTE:
For pool with connection valve, please refer to the connection valve installation on following page.
5. Insert top rail (A) into the pole pockets at the top of the pool. (See Fig.2)
6. Connect top rail (A) with T-Connector (C) at each of corner and insert pins (D) into gasket (F) first and then into
pre-drilled holes of the frame.
NOTE:
The gasket cups should face downwards to prevent water leaking into the top rails. (See Fig.3,4,5)
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until all top rails (A) are connected with T-Connectors (C) and the top frame is set up. For ease
of assembly slightly raise the last 2 rails to an inverted v shape and insert into the last T-Connectors(C). Slowly lower
until fully connected taking care not to pinch your fingers. (See Fig.6)
8. Attach all footings (E) to the bottom of the vertical pool legs (B). (See Fig.7)
9. Put all vertical pool legs (B) inside the pool wall band. Connect vertical pool leg (B) into the bottom of the
T-Connector (C) . Make sure the vertical pool leg (B) has the spring loaded pins at the top when connecting the
T-Connector (C). (See Fig.8)
NOTE:
For 8ft. x 24in. (2.44m x 61cm) pools, no wall band.
10. Pull the frame from different directions to ensure all rails, pool legs and connectors are firmly jointed. (See Fig.9)
11. Ensure drain valve is firmly closed. Smooth out the bottom.
12. Put 1in. to 2in. (2.5cm to 5cm) water in the pool to cover the floor. Once pool floor is slightly covered, gently smooth
out all wrinkles. Start in the center of the pool and work your way clockwise to the outside.

Filling Pool with Water
ATTENTION:
Do not leave pool unattended while filling with water
1. Fill pool until water capacity is 90%, DO NOT OVERFILL as this could cause the pool to collapse. In times of heavy
rainfall you may need to empty some of the water to ensure the level is correct. (See Fig. 11.12)
2. When filling the pool is completed, check that the water is not collecting on any side to ensure the pool is level.
IMPORTANT:
If pool is not level, drain water and re-level ground by digging out (See Fig. 13). Never
attempt to move the pool with water in it, serious personal injury or damage to the pool may result.
WARNING:
Your pool may contain a great deal of pressure. If your
pool has any bulge or uneven side then the pool is not level, the sides may burst
and the water may discharge suddenly causing serious personal injury and/or
damage to property.
3. Check pool for any leaks at valves or seams, check ground cloth for any
evident water loss. Do not add chemicals until this has been done.
NOTE:
In the event of a leak, patch your pool using the underwater
adhesive repair patch provided. Refer to the FAQ's for further information.

To keep your pool clean:
1. Contact your local pool supply shop for advice and purchase of chemicals and pH kits. One of the most important
factors to increase the life of the liner is to keep continously clean and healthy water. Please strictly follow the
instructions from professional technicians for the water treatment through the use of chemicals.
2. Locate a bucket of water next to pool to clean users' feet before entering pool.
3. Cover the pool when not in use.
4. Skim pool regularly to avoid settled dirt.
5. Check and wash the filter cartridge regularly.
6. Gently clean any scum from below the top ring with a clean cloth.
7. Please be careful in case of rain water, kindly check that the water level is not higher than the expected. If so, YOU
HAVE TO DISCHARGE THE EXCESS WATER.
Proper maintenance can maximize the life of your pool.
During the season of use of the swimming pool, the filtration system must be necessarily put into service every day,
enough time to assure at least a complete renewal of the volume of water.
ATTENTION:
Do not use pump when pool is in use.
