Frame Assembly

Please read through all the instructions and identify all parts before 

beginning assembly.

Step 1.

 Organize all parts on a flat, clean surface. All frame parts are 

labeled with a letter and number. See parts list. Use a hammer or 
rubber mallet to tap an End Plug into the tops of each S1R (right) 
and S1L (left) Vertical Bar. 

Important note:

 The top of the S1R and 

S1L Bars have bolt holes through 2 sides of the bar. The bottom of 
the bars have bolt holes in all 4 sides of the bar. 

Step 2.

 Take an S2 Vertical Bar and find the nut insert located inside the 

end (Figure 1 detail). Using the shorter 3/4” bolt, connect an S3T 
Bar to the top of the S2 Vertical Bar by screwing the bolt through 
the S3T bar and into the nut insert (Figure 1 detail). The Bolt will be 
fully inside the S3T when tightened. 

Important note:

 Orient the the 

S1L and S1R Vertical Bars so that the largest holes at the bottom 
face the outside of frame.

 

Tip:

 Make sure the bolt enters the nut insert straight. If the nut insert 

is off center, use a hammer and a bolt to tap the sides of the nut 
insert gently until it is level. 

 

Tip: 

You may need to loosen bolts as you go through the rest of the 

assembly, so only partially tighten them for now.
