ASSEMBLING THE END FRAME KIT COMPONENTS

Consult the end frame diagrams at the back of these

instructions before you begin. Assistance is required to

assemble the end frame.

ATTENTION: These instructions describe the assembly of

the 20' wide end frame.

ASSEMBLE AND INSTALL THE VERTICAL SUPPORTS

The following steps describe one way to assemble and set

the vertical supports.

1. If necessary, loosen and pull the bonnet portion of the main cover (if equipped) up and over the end rafter to allow

access to the end rafter. (May not apply to all covers or buildings.)

2. Using the dimensions (see End Frame Dimensions diagram), locate and mark the positions of the vertical supports.

3. Dig a 10"-12" diameter hole at the locations found in previous step to a depth

that is below the geographic frost line. (Minimum depth is 24".)

4. Measure the distances from the marked positions at ground level to the end

rafter and assemble two (2) vertical supports. Insert the swaged end of a

100" pipe into the plain end of another and secure with a Tek screw.

ATTENTION: When attached to the end rafter or building, the lower (plain)

end of each support will extend into a ground anchor hole. Cut each vertical tube assembly to a length that allows

the bottom end to extend into the ground anchor holes at a minimum depth of 12"-18" so they can be secured with

concrete. If the hole is deep enough, you do not need to cut the supports. (See note on Page 3 and Page 10 for

cutting instructions regarding the vertical supports.) Assemble all verticals before you cut to length so you do

not cut incorrectly. Consult a knowledgeable contractor if needed. Do not remove the swaged/tapered end!

5. Using the End Frame Diagram—Connections diagram at the back of these instructions, attach the upper ends of

the assembled vertical supports to the end rafter using the 1/2" fasteners.

6. After the vertical supports are in position, plumb, and the correct distance apart, secure the supports in the ground

holes using concrete. Verify that the Tek screws used to splice the supports are in a position that will not interfere

with the installation of an end panel (if equipped). Reposition Tek screws if needed.

NOTE: Concrete should remain at least 2"-4" below ground level so that it does not interfere with construction and

the installation of other end frame components (if equipped).
