FENCING INSTALLATION: VERSAI
Step 2:
Use Stakes & String to Create Perimeter
1. Using the fence layout sketch as a guide, locate a corner or
reference point along each fence run and mark it
with a stake.
2. Use a string stretched between stakes located at the end of
each fence run, and layout the perimeter of the fence
project.
3.
Layout fence so that minimal panel cuts are required;
remember to allow for gates.
4. If layout has 90° corners, confirm that corners form
90° angles.
Note:
•
(2” [50mm] Post Max On Center Spacing is
92-3/8” [2346mm]).

Step 3:
Dig Post Holes

2.
Use the Post Hole Digger to dig the holes to be 27”
[685mm] deep and 8” [203mm] in diameter.
As shown in Fig. 2.
3.
Keep Post Hole Digger straight and plumb.
Note:
• Call 811 before you dig post holes to locate and identify
any buried utilities.

8” [203mm]
in diameter,
however you should always consult local code
requirements for exact requirements.
