SELECTING A GOOD LOCATION
Assemble this product only in areas that meet the following criteria! No over-
head power lines near area; open, flat, level, dry ground of sufficient size to
allow for assembly, uprighting and climbing. Approximate area needed for
this is 14’ X 24’.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Tools needed – two 7/16” wrenches, two 1/2” wrenches and a tape measure
to measure level ground area needed & cross brace length.
NOTE: It is highly recommended that as much assembly as possible be
done in a garage setting because of hardware amount and time involved!
Allow two-four hours for assembly.
IMPORTANT ASSEMBLY TIP: Do not tighten any nut and bolt combina-
tions completely until all parts are assembled together! Finger tighten
plus one turn of a wrench only! This will temporarily hold the lock nut
on the bolt while helping alignment of all parts! After all parts are as-
sembled together, all nut & bolt combinations must be completely
tightened.
