Once the Top pole is to the 6” Mark on the Warning Sticker, lay Pole Assembly on its side on two padded saw
horses. Insert a (#42) Screw into each 3/16” hole in top Pole, two on each side of the Post Assembly. You will
need someone to hold the Pole assembly while inserting screws. Screw must go through both Top and Bottom
(Inner) Poles. Make sure to not strip screws once they are all they way through. See
Figure 4
.
SCREWS (#42) MUST BE INSTALLED TO POLE AS DESCRIBED
IN STEP 3. FAILURE TO INSTALL SCREWS COULD RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
NOTE : Cordless drill required for screw installation. Do not over tighten screws causing screws to
strip. Once Screw heads touch pole, STOP! Overtightening will cause Pole to Warp and
damage system.
NOTE : To install screws, it will be easier if you use a cordless drill with 5/16” socket (instead of
Phillips head).
NOTE : Screws #42, used in step 3, are Self Drilling screws and can be installed without drilling pilot
holes. However, it will be easier to install screws if you drill 9/64” pilot holes in bottom pole.
WEAR SAFETY GLASSES if drilling holes.
