GENERAL ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: 

 

Check all the parts and hardware with the packing list to be sure you have received 

everything needed to assemble this product.  CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DISTRIBUTOR WITH 

NOTIFICATION OF ANY MISSING OR DAMAGED PARTS.  Contact must be made within ten days of 

receipt of your order. 

Only hand-tighten nuts & bolts on initial assembly.  Final tightening should be done 

EVENLY after final assembly when unit has been plumbed & leveled.   

After assembly is complete, ANY ENDS OF BOLTS PROTRUDING BEYOND NUTS SHOULD BE CUT OFF 

AND/OR PEENED OVER TO REMOVE ANY SHARP EDGES.  Go over entire unit to file smooth any 

sharp edges or projections that may have been caused by rough handling in shipping or 

installation.  T-Clamps are designed for both one and two bolt connections.  In many 

situations only one bolt is required.  See specific assembly instructions. 

On products with platforms install 1 –– 2 degrees off level to facilitate water drainage.  

 

GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS: 

 

Check MONTHLY for loose bolts, damaged or broken parts.  Tighten and/or replace 

immediately.    

 

SPECIFIC ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: 

 

 

NOTE: 

All threaded ends of bolts protruding beyond nuts must be cut off and/or 

peened to eliminate sharp edges.  No more than two threads should extend 

beyond face of nut. 

All washers, ““T”” nuts, and other fastener hardware used on round pipe or 

tubing must be hammered down to conform to the curved underlying surface to 

eliminate catch points.   

STEP #1: 

Mark & dig footing holes per SKETCH on PAGE #2. 

STEP #2: 

Assemble Beam on the ground per SKETCH on Page 2. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STEP #3: 

Stand up and brace in footing holes.  Height of beam above resilient 

surfacing can be lowered from the 12”” recommended by extending the depth of 

footing holes. 

STEP #4:

 

Plumb & level.  Tighten all nuts & bolts so that lock washers are flat.  

Pour concrete and crown surface for drainage.  Let stand 48 hours before 

removing braces, installing resilient surfacing and using equipment. 

STEP #5: 

 

 

Attach Warning Label and Manufacturer’’s Identification Label to a clean 

surface.  The labels should be attached in a location where they are clearly 

visible and legibl3e and away from normal hand and foot placement areas.  

The labels must be replaced if they become illegible, destroyed or removed.  

Contact your distributor for replacement labels.
