Use these Assembly Procedure Hints throughout the installation process.
1. All Lag Bolts must have pre-drilled holes. Use a 1/4” drill bit for all 3/8” Lag Bolts.
Use a 3/16” drill bit for all 5/16” Lag Bolts. Pre-drilling pilot holes will help prevent Screws
and Lag Bolts from breaking and wood from splitting during assembly.
2. In areas where drilling a larger 1/2” hole is neccessary, such as when installing T-Nuts,
(Fig. 1) the recommended procedure is to first drill-through a 1/4” pilot hole from the
Hex Bolt side and then drill the larger 1/2” hole from the opposite T-Nut side. This will
help avoid splintering the wood. The “
Drill Both Sides ICON
” (Fig. 1) will remind you to
drill according to this procedure. Be sure to clean through-holes of debris before
inserting Hex Bolts.
3. When assembling parts that are difficult to hold in position while pre-drilling pilot holes
or assembling, use a clamp to keep parts aligned or in position. The “
Clamp ICON
”
(Fig. 2) will advise you to use this procedure.
