D. CONT. GROUND PREPARATION FOR THE BUTTRESS

2. Digging the buttress trenches

Odd number of trenches;

a. If your oval pool contains an even number of

buttresses, please proceed with next step. If your

oval pool contains an odd number, position the

buttress temporarily on the straight center line from

the middle. (Image 16)

b. Trace around the buttress and dig a trench. Dig the

trench 3 to 5 inches deep by 10 inches wide and the

length of 52 1/2 inches long. (Image 17)

c. The bottom plates for the straight section must be

at the same level with the crushed stone. If you do

not put crushed stone, understand that the bottom

plates all around the pool must be at the same

level. The warranty will void if you do not comply

with this requirement.

d. Apply crushed stone at 1 inch, then compress. Place

a concrete block of 2 inches at each end of the

trench.

e. Once the block is installed, measure the depth of

the trench, it must be 2 inches deep. Make sure the

block is level by using an optical level. Ensure that

both blocks are at the same level.

f. Place the buttress structure on the blocks and

ensure that each buttress is parallel to each other.

Important Note:

This first buttress that you install will be the reference

to install the remaining butresses, therefore ensure that

measurments and placements are exactly where they

need to be.
