PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT WEIGHT NEED TO BE USE TO KEEP THE LADDER DOWN TO THE FLOOR?

In order for the step to sit properly within the pool, you will need to use approximately 40 lbs of sand (filtration sand is an common choice for this purpose). In order to fill the step, you will need to use roughly 20 lbs on each side of the step. Fill with sand by placing a funnel in the opening of each side panel on the top step. Helpful Hint: When filling the side panels with the sand, rocking the step back and forth slightly will help to distribute the sand within the panels.
