Step 56: Install Ground Stakes
A:
In the 4 places shown in (fig. 56.2) drive the Rebar Ground Stakes 13” (330mm) into the ground against the
boards. Be careful not to hit the washer while hammering stakes into the ground as this could cause the washer to
break off.
B:
Attach 1 ground stake to each (6026) Rock Rail, the (6002) Long Post and to (0369) Lower Diagonal using 1
(S7) #12 x 2” Pan Screw per ground stake as shown in (fig. 56.1 & 56.2)
C:
After driving stakes into the ground, check for sharp edges caused by the impact of the hammer. Smooth any
sharp edges from impact area and touch up with outdoor paint.
