Dig a hole 30 cm (12") wide by approximately 25 cm (10") deep in
the center of the circumference.
From the center hole to the projected location of the pool motor, dig
a 15 cm (6") wide trench. Place the removed soil aside to be used
later to cover the hose.
Bottom Drain Assembly
Place teflon around the threaded plug. Screw in drain holes using
large pliers. Glue the connector in the appropriate opening.
Take one of the two rubber rings and adjust it to the top of the drain,
aligning the holes carefully. Secure with strips of adhesive tape to
prevent sand from penetrating inside the holes once the drain has
been installed.
Secure one end of the long black or white hose inside the drain
spout. First apply glue on the drain spout and inside the drain end,
then secure with one or two collars.
Cut the hose so that it ends with the stone dust (or sand). Measure
the pool radius from the center of the drain, then add 15 cm (6").
Place the assembled bottom drain in the hole so that it is approxi-
mately 1.3cm (1/2") higher than the surface soil. Bury the hose,
levelling the drain as much as possible. Compact the soil, using
your feet and a tampering tool as well.
Mix three (3) shovels of stone or sand dust with one half shovel of
pure cement, adding a small quantity of water, then pour the cement
around the drain until it reaches 1.3 cm (1/2") from the top.

Insert the wall tracks on each side of the joiner plates. Evenly space
the ends of both tracks in the center of the joiner plate. (See Illus-
tration 4.1).
