• WaterWarden safety fence section (Fig. 1)

• Plastic Feet (Fig. 2)

• Plastic Caps (Fig. 3)

• Safety Latch (Fig. 4)

LIST OF TOOLS NEEDED FOR INSTALLATION:

• Utility knife or box cutter

• Rotary hammer drill

•

5/8” SDS masonry drill bit [If using a drilling guide, a 5/8” x 18”

masonry drill bit is needed]

• ¼” phillips head bit

• Extension cord (if necessary)

• Measuring tape

• Chalk line or white chalk

• Pencil or white chalk

• Hammer or rubber mallet

• Square and level or drilling guide (available for rental from

dealer where fence was purchased)

• PVC glue

INSTALLATION:

1.Locate Drilling Template “A” on inside flap of the Pool

Fence carton (“A”). Carefully cut out the Drilling

Template with utility knife or box cutter. Puncture spots

marked “B”, “C” and “D” .

2. Snap a chalk line around the perimeter of the pool, 24”

from pool edge.

3. Decide where the opening of your pool fence will be.

Mark “X” on the pool deck with chalk for placement of

initial pole. See (Fig. 1).

4. If you have purchased a separate Gate for your pool fence,

that must be installed first. Please see special instructions

included with the Gate, for Gate installation. If you will be

using the join of two sections as the opening for your Water-

Warden safety fence, continue with the following.

5. Place Drilling Template on pool surround, carefully aligning

spot “D” with the chalk mark “X”. Check to make sure that the

template is straight and aligned with the chalk line, and that

spots marked “B” and “C” are also 24” from pool edge.

Insuring that template does not move, drill through spots

marked “B”, “C” and “D”. All holes should be drilled to a

depth of 4”, and at a direct 90º angle to the deck. (Please note,

the spots marked “C” and “D” is where the opening of your

pool fence will be. The two poles that fit into these holes will

be joined with a “Safety Latch”.)

6. Continue around the entire pool, drilling holes while using the

Drilling Template for guidance. Place spot marked “B” over

the hole on the far right (last hole drilled). Drill through spot

marked “C”. Proceed around the perimeter of the entire pool,

always placing the spot marked “B” over the last hole drilled,

and ensuring that spot marked “C” is 24” from pool edge.

Keep drilling the new hole through the spot marked “C”. Every

12 feet (or at the end of each section), you must also drill

through spot marked “D”, to accommodate the pole of the

new section.

7. When you come to a corner of the pool, it is not recommen-

ded that you design 90º corners within one fence section.

Always use two smaller sections to meet at the corner (see #8

below for instructions on cutting down a fence section). Drill

the two corner holes at a 5º angle away from each other (use

a square and level to measure the angles before drilling, or

use the drilling guide available for rent from dealer where the

fence was purchased.)

8. To cut down a fence section to create a smaller panel, follow

the steps below:

• IMPORTANT: Lay out mesh on flat surface, ensuring that

mesh is tight and straight in all directions.

• Decide the width of the custom panel. Add four inches to

your measurement prior to cutting.

• Using scissors or utility knife, cut mesh of panel to

determined width.

• Using any extra pole, detach trim with ¼” phillips head bit. • Mark desired length on mesh with a chalk line. Fold extra fabric back and under, leaving fabric ½” longer than marked chalk line. Reattach trim to pole along marked line, ensuring that the fabric is sandwiched in between the pole and the trim, and that the screws are directly on the chalk line. Trim away excess fabric from pole edge with scissors or utility knife. Use a heat source to melt the cut edge of the mesh to prevent fraying. 9.
