Intex ultra xtr pool leg issue - HELP

Postby kmresler » Wed 25 May, 2022 10:34

Hi there. Not sure if I should post this here or in another area. If another area just let me know.

We have a new 18x52 Intex Ultra XTR above ground pool that we have filed up about a 3/4 of the way and stopped so we can install the salt water systems and pump, etc. While setting up the pumps and stuff we noticed that one of the leg buttons that should be fully popped out to ensure its secure was only partially in and the leg itself at a slant near that area. The leg itself is level but we are concerned that once the pool is fully filled up and people are in it, it will cause pressure on the joint that this leg is connected to. Based on the pictures provided, is it easier to just cut our losses and empty about a foot or so from the ground of the pool to readjust the leg or is there some way to jam/push the leg up or down so the button snaps into place.

I have several pictures including the pool level, pictures of good legs and the picture of the leg in question but cannot attach for some reason. I can DM maybe the pictures?

Let me know if anyone has any ideas other than draining it to reset it.
