Step 7.
Use a rubber mallet to tap an Assembled 2' Panel into the open channel of a
Corner, positioning it so the attached Platform Support sits underneath the Platform
Support on the 2' Side Panel (Figures 2 & 3). Make sure the top of the Assembled 2'
Panel sits 1/8" above the top of the Corner and is fully seated inside, then insert Screws
into the holes in the Corner and through the lined up holes in the ends of the Platform
Supports. Repeat to attach the remaining Assembled 4' Panel to the same 2' Side
Panel.
Step 8.
Place the remaining 2’ Side Panel on a flat surface. Carefully lift the other attached
Panels and guide the ends of the Assembled 2' Panels into the open channels of the
Corners on the 2’ Side Panel to form a box. Insert Screws through the holes in both
Corners. Once all Panels are attached, stand the Planter Box on its legs.
Step 9.
Set the Cedar Floor Planks on top of the Supports, arranging them so there are
small gaps between the planks.
NOTE:
The gaps allow water to drain. Place the Fabric
Liner over the Floor Planks.
Step 10.
Insert a Corner Cap into the top of each aluminum Corner, using a rubber mallet
if necessary. The planter box assembly is complete!
This elevated planter box holds approx. 65 quarts of planting mix. Fill it with Potting Mix, and if you wish, some organic matter, such
as compost. We also recommend adding a slow-release fertilizer like our Organic All-Purpose Fertilizer (sold separately).
NOTE:
Avoid
using a heavy potting soil or placing rocks and broken pottery into the Planter Box. Now you’re ready to plant!
