STEP 18: ATTACHING THE SWING BEAM SUPPORT AND TRAP ARM
1: THE 4 X 4 X 36" SWING BEAM MOUNT HAS COUNTER-SUNK HOLES IN THE CENTER AND ON
THE ENDS. INSTALL THE SWING BEAM MOUNT SO THAT THE COUNTER-SUNK HOLES ON EACH
END OF THE BEAM FACE OUT, AND THE COUNTER-SUNK HOLES AT THE CENTER FACE DOWN.
2: FASTEN THE SWING BEAM MOUNT TO THE CORNER POSTS USING 3/8" X 6-1/2" CARRIAGE
BOLTS WITH TORQUE WASHERS. PLACE THE CARRIAGE BOLT INTO THE TORQUE WASHER, THEN
INTO THE HOLE OF THE CORNER POST AND SET WITH A HAMMER, USE 3/8" WASHERS WITH 3/8"
LOCK NUTS TO SECURE THE SWING BEAM MOUNT FROM THE OUTSIDE. PLACE BOLT COVERS
OVER THE EXPOSED THREADS AFTER SECURING.
3: THE 4 X 4 X 73-1/2" TRAP ARM WILL ATTACH TO THE UNIT IN THE SAME MANNER AS THE
SWING BEAM MOUNT. THE TRAP ARM WILL MOUNT ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE FORT THAT
THE SWING BEAM MOUNT WAS MOUNTED ON.
