POOL OUTLET - STRAINER & PLUNGER VALVE SETUP

The strainer grid prevents large objects from jamming and/or damaging the
filter pump. If your pool has an inflatable top ring, install the strainer, nozzle
and plunger valve before inflating the pool liner top ring. The part numbers

here onward refer to the parts depicted in the Parts List section of this

manual. To install, do the following:

1. In a counter-clockwise motion unscrew

plunger valve union from the threaded
strainer connector (33) (see drawing 1).
Be careful not to lose the step rubber
washer (30). Place the plunger valve on
the ground in a safe place.

2. In a counter-clockwise motion unscrew the

strainer nut (31) from the threaded
connector (33). Leave the flat washer (32)
on the connector (33).

3. Install the strainer and plunger valve at the

lower position of pool outlet (marked "+").
From the inside of the pool liner insert the
connector (33) into one of the pre-cut holes
with the washer remaining on the
connector to be placed against the inside
of the liner wall.

4. Before assembly, lubricate the threads with

a petroleum jelly. With the flat side of the
strainer nut (31) facing the outside wall of
the liner in a clockwise motion screw the
strainer nut (31) back onto the threaded
connector (33) (see drawing 2).

5. Finger tighten the strainer nut (31) onto the

threaded connector (33).

6. Grasp the plunger valve assembly. Make

sure the step washer (30) is in place.

7. In a clockwise motion screw the plunger

valve union back onto the threaded
connector (33) (see drawing 3).

8. Examine the plunger valve to see if the

handle is pushed fully down to the "0/1"
position. If not, then grasp the handle at
the top and push down turning the handle
in a clockwise direction until the plastic
protruding notch anchors in the "0/1"
position. This will prevent water from
flowing out during filling (see

drawings 4.1 & 4.2).

POOL INLET - NOZZLE & PLUNGER VALVE SETUP

1. In a counter-clockwise motion unscrew

lunger valve union from the threaded

p
strainer connector (33) (see drawing 5).
Be careful not to lose the step rubber
washer (30). Place the plunger valve on
the ground in a safe place.

2. In a counter-clockwise motion unscrew the

strainer nut (31) from the threaded
connector (33). Leave the flat washer (32)
on the connector (33).

3. Install the nozzle and plunger valve at the

upper position of pool inlet. From the inside
of the pool liner insert the connector (33)
into one of the pre-cut holes with the
washer remaining on the connector to be
placed against the inside of the liner wall.

4. Before assembly, lubricate the threads with

a petroleum jelly. With the flat side of the
strainer nut (31) facing the outside wall of
the liner in a clockwise motion screw the
strainer nut (31) back onto the threaded
connector (33) (see drawing 6).

5. Finger tighten the adjustable pool inlet

nozzle (34) and the strainer nut (31) onto
the threaded connector (33).

6. Grasp the plunger valve assembly. Make

sure the step washer (30) is in place.

7. In a clockwise motion screw the plunger

valve union back onto the threaded
connector (33) (see drawing 7).

8. Examine the plunger valve to see if the

handle is pushed fully down to the "0/1"
position. If not, then grasp the handle at
the top and push down turning the handle
in a clockwise direction until the plastic
protruding notch anchors in the "0/1"
position. This will prevent water from
flowing out during filling (see

drawings 8.1 & 8.2).

9. Adjust the direction of nozzle head pointing

away from the pool outlet for a better
circulation result (see drawing 9).

10. The pool liner is now ready to fill with

water. Consult the above-ground-pool
owner’s manual for filling instructions.
