Installation Instructions
HOW TO USE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Be sure to read these instructions completely before
beginning the installation of your pool. ATTENTION:
Always use these assembly instructions to install
your swimming pool. Ignore any English instructions
included with the pool, as the size will be in inches, etc.
ATTENTION: Check the pool parts with the English
parts lists.
These are installation instructions for the installation of
several sizes of round pools. Use the pool parts list and
extensive illustrations to identify your pool parts; then
read these instructions and follow the steps that pertain
to your pool assembly.
Embassy PoolCo. cannot be held liable for damage
caused by careless or improper installation. Your war-
ranty is void if the pool assembly and installation instruc-
tions are not followed exactly, or if the pool design is
altered in any way.
Contracted Installation
Embassy PoolCo. is not affiliated with any professional
pool installers and cannot assume any responsibility
for installation mistakes made by the homeowner. If the
pool is installed by others, please supervise the installa-
tion and make sure that the correct installation method
is applied.
Change of pool design
Embassy PoolCo. expressly reserves the right to change
or modify the design and instruction during the course
of our manufacturing procedures, without incurring any
obligation or liability to reapply such modifications on
products previously or currently sold.
CAUTIONS
1. Do not attempt to install pool wall on windy days.
An unsupported pool wall can easily blow down and
may thus cause personal injury.
2. When assembling your pool, keep the parts not
currently used in an area out of the way. Unpacked
parts are easily tripped over and may be damaged
or cause personal injury.
3. Do not attempt to lift the heavy boxes by yourself. To
reduce the possibility of personal injury, have some-
one help you move heavy boxes (pool wall, liner, etc.).
WARNING
1. Your pool must be level within 2-3 cm all around.
An unlevel pool may cause excessive stress on
the pool frame. A pool which is not level may
cause a lot of pressure on the frame. This may
result in pool failure which could cause serious
personal injury.
2. Your pool must be on undisturbed soil, preferably
filtered sand. Filled up sand, sudden slopes within
15 cm or the water runoff may cause a cave in of
the subsoil. This could cause pool failure and may
cause personal injury.
3. Always install the Warning Sign. The decal is
designed to warn you, your friends and loved ones
that your pool is to be used for swimming and wad-
ing only. Do not allow any form of horseplay in or
around the pool. Failure to follow this warning can
lead to severe personal injury. Read the “Safety
First” booklet (in English).
4. Use stabilised sand as a pool cove. Common sand
can easily erode and allow the pool liner to rupture
which may cause pool failure or personal injury.
5. Secure your pool when not in use. Ladders and
gates should be secured to reduce the possibility
of unauthorised entry and possible serious
accidents.
6. Always repair liner leaks. Continued leakage
between the pool wall and liner can cause wall
damage to the wall which eventually may result
in pool wall failure. This could result in personal
injury.
7. To reduce the risk of possible electrical shock,
never install your pool under overhead wires.
8. Do not alter your pool as this may cause pool fail-
ure. Your warranty is void if the pool is altered.
9. Do not install a diving board, pool slide or any
other recreational accessories for use during div-
ing, sliding or jumping into your pool.
10. ATTENTION: Do not install the pool liner at tem-
peratures under 16ºC. At lower temperatures the
liner’s elasticity is too limited for proper installation.

Step 1
Depending on the size of your pool (please refer to the
pool layout dimensions above) you will determine the
pool diameter and determine the outline of the working
space (60 cm).
Drive the stake into ground at pool centre and draw a
circle around it. Now level and smooth the soil within
the circle as indicated. In order to obtain solid subsoil, it
is better to remove and level the pool area and fill it up
with loose sand. Remove sods, stones, roots and other
objects that could puncture the liner. Remember that the
entire assembled pool framework must be level and be
on clean ground (preferably sifted sand).
Step 3
At this time remove the steel pool wall from the car-
ton. Note the Up arrow. The starting point of the wall
assembly is dependent on the location where you have
determined that the pump and filter will be located. The
skimmer and inlet openings are located at the end of the
coil. Always start in the centre of a bottom rail connecting
piece, then each time uncoil 1.5 m and insert that into
the groove of the bottom rail. If both ends do not com-
pletely match up, correct that by sliding the bottom rail
more or less into the bottom connecting pieces.
Step 2
Use a wooden stake as the centre and make a circle of
the diameter of your pool. For this attach a wire or cord
on the one hand to the wooden stake and on the other
hand to a screw driver or marking pen. The size is half
of the pool diameter starting from the wooden stake.
Create a circle with the bottom rails by sliding each
bottom rail into a bottom rail connecting piece, with the
groove up according to the drawing. Attention, slide the
rail up to the lips of the base plate. If the soil condition
is not optimum, then place underneath each bottom rail
connecting piece a concrete slab, countersunk to the
bottom level for extra security.
Step 4
Place the ends of the wall adjusters one on top of the
other according to the drawing. If the ends do not fit one
on top of the other, correct then all studs somewhat, until
the wall ends indeed fit one on top of the other. Attention,
the round form should be maintained. Connect the wall
ends using the nuts and bolts which are in the box. Keep
the screw head on the inside of the pool. Remove the
burs from the screws. Place the protective strip using
tape.

Important step! On the inside of the steel wall, construct
a slanting elevation of stabilized sand of approx. 15 cm
high and wide with a mixing ratio of 1m3 fluvial sand
with 125 kg concrete). This is vitally important for the
preservation of the internal lining. It happens that due to
the water pressure the liner underneath the bottom rail is
pressed outwards.
Step 10
Remove the wooden stake and recheck the soil if there is
gravel, glass or other sharp projections. Flatten foot prints
and other unevenness. As a soil cover and extra protection
of your pool lining, it is advisable to cover the soil with a
water resistant sub-liner that you can glue with adhesive
tape to the bottom side of the steel wall. Now place the
internal lining on the cover panel and check it according to
the instructions.
NB: The relief face of the internal lining is the water face.
Step 11
Work in both directions during the folding out of the liner
and have the internal lining hang outside of the upper
edge approximately 60 cm. The centre of the lining
should hang approximately 40 cm above the bottom.
The bottom welding seam of the liner should be located
approximately 30 cm from the top (please refer to the
drawing).

Step 14
Fill the pool up to approximately 50 cm below the cover
panel. Make sure that during the filling the liner does not
fall back into the pool. Water between the liner and the
steel wall can cause damage to the earth cove (please
refer to Step 9). First complete Steps 15, 16 and 17
before you continue filling.
Step 15
With the aid of 2 or 3 people loosen the liner from 3
segments. Be careful and do not let the liner fall into the
water. While 1 man holds the liner, the other one dis-
assembles from 3 segments the guards from the guard
panels and end caps (please refer to the drawing).
Disassemble 3 guards

Water level
Step 12
Before filling up the pool, place binder clips between the
studs. These binder clips are available from the builder’s
merchant. Make sure that a piece of cardboard is placed
between the binder clip and the internal lining; this is to
protect the internal lining. The water pressure ensures in
principle that your pool liner is placed smooth and tight.
Check each time during filling that locally no excessive
tension takes place on the liner. The binder clips do not
unclamp themselves; that is why during too high tension
they should be gradually adjusted and refastened. Please
note that a minimum tension is needed to make your
bottom smooth. If the water covers the bottom ± 5 cm,
no creases or wrinkles should be located on the bottom;
should this be the case despite everything, then pull
locally the top of the liner a bit, so that due to the water
pressure the crease disappears. Keep the liner at a mini-
mum tension until the bottom has been filled with approx.
15 cm water and the liner is flush against the steel wall.
Step 13
CONTINUE FILLING THE POOL
After the pool is filled up, the bottom welding seam of
the liner has to be located as a whole in the vicinity of
the junction of the bottom wall. You do not have to worry
about the strength of the liner; the strength is calculated
at 1.5 x the original size. If the bottom seam is not sit-
uated in the correct location, it is possible that you will
not have sufficient liner to overhang outside the bottom
edge, so that you then have to start over rearranging the
liner.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS SUNLAKE - ROUND - PAGE 7
Step 16
Fold the overhanging part of the liner towards the outside
of the steel wall and pull the whole liner tight (please refer
to the drawing). Place the plastic profile strip all the way
across the liner and op top of that the stabilizer rails, after
you have slid those into each other ± 15 cm; then assem-
ble all parts again which you had disassembled in Step
15 and repeat this process each time for 3 segments until
you have completed the whole pool (please also refer to
Figure A in Page 5).
Step 17
Now assemble the skimmer, inlet and filter as indicated
on the instruction specifically included for that. Then
continue filling the pool up to the indicated level on the
skimmer plate.

SUPPLEMENTARY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR BUILDING A POOL IN THE
GROUND
To avoid that material rolls onto the site where the pool
is to be constructed, the location where the pool is to
be constructed must be in the most elevated part of the
garden. The surrounding landscape should be lower
than the pool. Attention, the water level of the pool
should also be above the groundwater level during the
winter (water level 15 cm below the inlet).
The specific installation such as seen in Figure 2 serves
only as a reference and is not representative for all pool
installations. The parts which may need special materi-
als are the lighting and chloride installations.
EXCAVATING
1. The circumference of the excavation is the same as
the size of the pool plus 60 cm around the whole
pool. Determine the size of the excavation pertaining
to the size of the pool and use for this the exten-
sive installation instruction delivered with the pool.
(Attention, the soil should be at least 15 cm white
sand or stabilized sand; on top of that we recommend
a layer of styrodur or a protective blanket.)
2. The depth of the excavation is dependent on the
height of the pool and desired terrace. Use the size
such as seen in Figure 1 to calculate how deep the
excavation should be.
3. After the pool is excavated, the frame and the wall
should be installed according to the installation ins-
truction delivered with the pool.
INSTALLATION OF SKIMMER AND INLET
The skimmer and the inlet have to be installed before
the pool is filled with water and before the pool is filled
up with stabilized sand. During the installation of the
internal lining and the skimmer, the lead through for the
skimmer may not be created yet. Install the inlet and
gasket. Remove the internal lining from the inlet opening
and install the valve delivered with the skimmer.
PLUMBER’S WORK
In order to prevent that the hoses move up and down,
you should connect the skimmer and the inlet with rigid
PVC to the filter (Figure 2). If you are using flexpipe, you
need to make sure that this pipe is not bent, before you
fill up the rest of the pool. Install the pump as closely as
possible to the pool in connection with the drawing in of
the pump. If this pump is a Doughboy Pool Powerpack,
then you should place it below the water level.
FILLING THE POOL
First fill the pool with water up to approximately 5 cm
away from the top edge. This procedure is absolutely
necessary to absorb the pressure performed on the wall
during the application of stabilized sand. Ff the pool
is not filled completely with water, this can cause pool
failure.
SHUTTERING
We recommend that you apply a shuttering around the
skimmer before the pool is filled up.A space around the
skimmer and any other accessories offer you the possi-

bility to have easy access for maintenance or repairs.
ATTENTION: If the filling up takes place immediately
around the skimmer, it shall be more difficult in the futu-
re to check the skimmer during leaks.
Doughboy is in no way liable for the expenses pertaining
to the finding and/or repairing of leaks, cutting, breaking
off and/or removing of stabilizing sand.
PREPARATION OF STABILIZER SAND
Mixing ratio 1 m3 fluvial sand with 125 kg concrete.
IMPORTANT WARNING:
Regardless the method used for the way the stabilized
sand is applied, you should pay close attention to the
wall of the pool during filling to be sure that the wall
does not collapse. If a dent occurs in the pool wall,
someone should enter the pool to push it back.
If this is not possible, you should lower the pressure to
the pool wall by removing the mixture
used to fill up the pool locally again so
that the dent can be removed. Then
carefully fill up the pool again. You
should at all times pay attention to the
pool wall until the pool is completely
filled up. To prevent rust on the pool
wall, the water streaming out of the pool
should immediately be removed from the
pool wall. For this you should let the top
layer run off at least 2 cm such as can
be seen from the illustration. After the
mixture has been applied completely,
you should lower the water level to the
top line of the skimmer opening and cut
away the liner in the skimmer opening.
IMPORTANT MESSAGE:
Piling up of loose material between the mixture and the
poor wall may push in the wall. If extra material is placed
between the mixture and the cover material to get this at
the correct height, you should only use a sturdy mortar.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARATION OF THE POOL
The pool should be built up the correct way based
on the pool assembly and installation instructions.
Approximately 70 cm water should press against the
metal wall, so that there isn’t any elasticity anymore
against the liner, before the skimmer is installed.
ATTENTION: After the skimmer hole is cut open the liner
can no longer be moved.
Skimmer installation
1. Remove all parts from the carton box. Remove the
cover of the skimmer by sliding it to the front and
then lifting is; remove the skimmer basket.
2. Fasten the skimmer valve (7) to the skimmer (3)
by using three screws (8). Push the skimmer valve
into the skimmer so that the foam side is facing the
bottom.
3. Install the top skimmer gasket (9) into the square
opening of the metal wall; make sure that the gas-
ket is positioned properly in front of the holes. Then
fasten the bottom gasket (10) into the vacuum con-
nection. Place the skimmer plate on the inside of
the pool, and keep the skimmer on the outside of
the pool. First screw tight the top angles with two
self tapping screws. Press the self tapping screws
through the skimmer plate and press the liner into
the openings of the skimmer. Lightly tighten
the self
tapping screws.
Your standard skimmer facilitates the maintenance of
your pool. Leaves and floating refuse are taken out of
the water and enter into the skimmer basket. Clean the
basket regularly to continuously keep your pool clean
and hygienic. The numbers indicated between the brac-
kets refer to the numbers of the illustration (Fig 7).

Installation inlet fixture
1. Install the gasket of the inlet (17) into the wall ope-
ning. Insert the inlet fixture (18) through the liner and
the wall starting from the inside of the pool. Make a
small notch into the liner and press the inlet fixture
through.
2. Now screw the inlet (16) onto the inlet fixture; turn
it clockwise until the inlet end points towards the
bottom.
3. Install the eyeball inserted piece (20) into the eyeball
(21). Insert the eyeball with the inserted piece into the
inlet fixture, turn the closure (22) on top of that; make
sure that the eyeball location stands in the water run-
ning off direction of the skimmer opening
WARNING: Always keep the water level between the
water level signs on the skimmer plate.
After installation of the skimmer check if there are leaks
when the pool is filled. Continuous leaks can cause
damage to the pool wall, so that eventually there is pool
failure.
VACUUMING
Empty the skimmer basket before suctioning.
1. Switch off the pump. Assemble the vacuum nozzle,
handle and hose. A proper flexible hose provides the
best suction results. Attach the free end to the vacu-
um adaptor (13).
2. Switch on the pump. Keep the free end of the hose
against the outlet of the inlet fixture. Because of this
air shall pass through the hose. When bubbles no
longer exit from the vacuum nozzle, all air has been
removed (please refer to Figure 5/6).
4. Screw the rest of the self tapping screws through the
skimmer plate, liner, gaskets, wall and the correspon-
ding openings in the skimmer. Tighten all self tapping
screws manually; this to prevent damage to the skim-
mer plate. With a Stanley knife now cut away the liner
on the inside of the skimmer plate; do the same with
the vacuum inlet. (Fig 4)
ATTENTION: The gasket around the vacuum connection
(10) is necessary to ensure a watertight closure around
the vacuum connection during the suctioning off of
water. Attach the suction cover (12) and the attachment
of the suction cover (11) to the skimmer plate with a
screw (8).

3. Fold the cover of the vacuum opening (12) so that
it points towards the bottom. Insert the tapering end
of the vacuum adaptor with the hose attached into
the opening by making a turning movement (Fig. 7).
4. The cover (2) has two functions. In the normal
position is covers the top of the filter. During suc-
tion, this same cover becomes the closing plate for
suctioning; make sure that the pump is in the OFF
position. Remove the cover, turn it 90º and let it
drop to the inside and place it above the basket.
Make sure that there is no air under the cover.
Trapped air shall make the cover rise.
Warning: Never try to install the cover in a suctioning
position if the pump is switched on. The cover might
suddenly be pulled down due to the strong suction of the
pump. You may suffer personal injury to your hands or
fingers.
5. When the cover is in place, you can switch on the
pump and put into operation the suction of the pool
floor.
6. When you are finished suctioning, you have to switch
off the pump. Remove the vacuum hose with the
vacuum adaptor connected to it from the pool. Clean
the skimmer basket and your filter. Relocate the cover
to the original position on the top of the skimmer.
Switch on the pump to resume the normal operation
of the pump.

PREPARING FOR WINTER
When the swimming season is over, you have to follow
the instructions to get your pool ready for winter.
ATTENTION! Do not remove all the water from your
pool and also do not remove the liner. An empty pool can
namely cause pool failure.
Lower the water level
- Lower the water level in your pool so that it is approxi-
mately 6” (15 cm) below the inlet fixture; maintain this
water level by checking it regularly.
- If you have a skimmer, then absolutely do not let the
water freeze in the skimmer but rather drain this water.
Check all screws and connections
- Make sure that all installation connections and parts
are positioned correctly and that the pool wall is not
moved away from the bottom rails.
- Make also sure that all connections are water tight.
Check if there is rust
- Correct all damages or rust spots with a varnish stick.
Check the liner (interior tarpaulin)
- Make sure that the top of the liner is still overhanging
the pool wall attached to the plastic edge. Do not
remove the liner from your pool. Upon removal of the
liner of the pool the warrantee becomes void. Do not
pump dry all the water from the pool during the winter.
Leaks found
- Make sure that there aren’t any leaks in the liner.
Leaks during the winter can cause serious damages to
your pool.
Pool accessories
- Remove all pool accessories from the pool, including
the ladder. Leave the skimmer and inlet fixture in
place.
The filter
- Disconnect the filter from your pool and follow the filter
instructions for maintaining the filter during the winter.
Clean the pump and the filter for the winter (frost free).
Anti-freeze liquid
This liquid can be used without problems in combination
with chloride products. Upon finding algae present first
apply a ‘shock treatment.’ The liquid should be, dis-
solved in a pail of water, spread out equally across the
water surface. During the dosage the pump should be
in operation. The dosage is 0.5 litres per 10 m3, after
approximately four weeks 0.3 litres per 10 m3.
ATTENTION! Never mix the liquid with other pool che-
micals or chemicals and always add the product to
water, never the other way around.
If you do not adhere closely to the winter instructions,
the warrantee of your pool may become void. Thus care-
fully adhere to all instructions for maintaining your pool
during the winter.
