BASEBOARDS FOR FRAME — RECOMMENDED
These instructions describe installing a baseboard
(recommended) at ground level along each side of the
frame. Baseboard runs from front to back of frame.
This baseboard is
not included
and is customer supplied.
When installed properly the baseboard helps prevent
ground posts from sinking when anchored. Depending
on building, it also provides a surface to attach struts or
other building components.
Secure baseboard using the
supplied FAH009B (1/4" x 4") bolts and FALB01B (1/4")
nuts.
Consult these instructions, or contact Customer Service for
additional information regarding baseboards.
Dotted line represents the anti-billow rope.
Example: Circles identify the ends of Rope #1.
ANTI-BILLOW ROPE INSTALLATION
TO PREVENT DAMAGE AND POSSIBLE INJURY,
INSTALL THE ANTI-BILLOW ROPES IN SHORT
LENGTHS ALONG EACH SIDE OF THE FRAME.
DO NOT INSTALL AS A SINGLE LENGTH TIED AT
EACH END OF THE BUILDING. DOING SO WILL
RESULT IN A LOOSE SIDE PANEL IF THE SINGLE
ROPE BREAKS DURING STRONG WINDS.
