Hello everyone!

I am installing an 18’x33’x52” in ground steel walled oval pool with a 9’ radius. I have never put in a pool before but I was left with no choice when my pool dealer failed to produce an installer. I have been doing well so far until I tried to put the aluminum cp2 radius coping pieces in. The coping, when placed on the top of the walls, does not sit flat like the straight pieces do. I was told by the manufacturer that a few screws would flatten it out. So I tried that with no luck. Most of the 8’ section of coping still remains off of the steel wall. I have tried to install these pieces in different areas of the pool, secured the middle first, secured the ends first, with help and without. I have a few extra radius wall sections that were omitted to make room for the pre fab steps. I even tried to install the coping on them thinking it was something I did to the installed walls but it was the same result. I’m all out of ideas and I hope someone on here can help me through this or point me in the right direction.
