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.
