Important Assembly Notes
1)
PRE-SORT ALL STEPS BEFORE BEGINNING ASSEMBLY.
Pay close attention to the ITEMS NEEDED FOR
EACH STEP. Assembly is easier when the wood and hardware are sorted by step.
2) While assembling unit, take time before and after each step to make sure
Fort is level. If fort is not level, assembly will be difficult and improper assembly
may result. Extra care must be taken to assure the fort is square on the steps
that include this symbol.
Note: It is vital that the fort
be level before and
after each phase of
assembly.
4) Whenever a T-nut is used, follow these directions: Place T-nut in
pre-drilled hole. Tap in with hammer. Place bolt with split and flat
washers in the opposite side. Hand tighten to make sure the bolt
is in the T-nut. DO NOT over tighten.
5) Pay close attention to make sure you are using the correct hardware
in the correct steps. Using incorrect hardware may result in improper assembly.
6) Read the instructions of each step thoroughly. The written steps may include important information not
shown in the illustrations.
3) When installing a board on the small face of a 2x4, pre-drilling the
attachment hole is REQUIRED. Using the holes in the board as a guide,
drill holes into the 2x4 with an 1/8" drill bit. Failure to pre-drill may result
in board splitting.
To prevent board splitting, you
must pre-drill each board with
a 1/8" drill bit, before attaching.
