Use level and check the frame is level before applying fl oor panels.
Check for frame squareness by measuring diagonally across corners.
If the measurements are the same, the frame is square.
The diagonal measurement will be approximately 151-1/2" (384,8 cm).
When the frame is level and square secure one side of frame to the 4x4 runners with one fastener
at ends of each runner.
Move to the opposite end of the frame. Secure the frame to 4x4 runners with one fastener at ends
of each runner making sure the frame remains square
