ARBOR SIDE PANEL ASSEMBLY
(Refer to Drawing 1) (Make 2)
On clean flat surface lay one left post so the routed holes are facing up and the screw pilot holes are
facing you. Insert one of the bottom cross rails into the bottom routed slot, and then continue to
insert the seven center cross rails into the top seven routed slots. Set one right post on top of cross
rails and insert each into the routed holes. Lay panel flat, make sure all cross rails are pushed in
tight and fasten with
¾”
screws. Snap screw caps over screw heads. Set panel upright and slide
the two 1 x 1 x 60" square rails into the outer holes and the 1 x 1 x 63" square rail into the center
hole.
ARBOR TOP ASSEMBLY
(Refer to Drawing 2)
Lay both side panels on there edge approximately 50" apart, with screw heads facing out and
routed holes for corner braces facing in. Insert one of the 7/8 x 1 ½ x 18” corner brace pieces into
the bottom side of the 1 ½ x 4 x 72” top rail. Working with the side closest to you, slide the 1 ½ x
4 x 72” top rail into the 4" slot on the top of the post. As you slide the top rail into its hole in the
post, insert the corner brace into the 7/8 x 1 ½” hole routed in the post. Do the same procedure
for opposite end of 72" rail. Flip arbor over and repeat for other 72" rail.
The measurement from the longest peak of top rail to the outside of the 2 x 2” leg should be 9”.
Make sure measurement of top rail is correct on both sides. Using
1 ¼”
screws fasten corner
braces, top rail and side panels together, snap screw caps over screw heads.
Lay the eight 7/8 x 1 ½ x 41” top cross rails into place on top of the arbor top rails, using the pilot
holes for screws as your guide. Fasten each top cross rails using
1 ¼”
screws and snap screw caps
over screw heads.
