Anchoring Frame
TO pREVENT SERIOuS INJuRY: Contact local utility companies to ensure that the installation area is free of pipes, cables, and other hazards BEFORE installing anchors or choosing installation area.
1. Position the frame in the desired installation location.
The location must be flat, level, and stable with good locations for the Anchors (11-1).
2. Level the frame end-to-end and side-to-side.
3. Measure the width of the frame at front and back; it should be 10′ 2" wide.
The distance diagonally in one direction should be equal to the distance diagonally in the other direction.
If any measurements do not match, adjust the frame and retake measurements until they are equal within a reasonable tolerance.
Note:
If measurements cannot be made correct, then parts may not be seated together properly.

4. Once the frame is positioned, leveled, and squared, anchor the four Corner Legs (6) as follows: a. Thread the Anchor (11-1) into the ground near the Corner Leg until the top of the Anchor only extends about 3″ above the ground.
Note:
Verify that there are no utility lines nearby before driving anchors. If there are rocks or other obstacles, holes may need to be drilled first to allow proper anchoring.
Note:
When anchoring frame on concrete, use
Concrete Anchor (19) in place of Anchor.
b. Insert a Cable (11-2) through the anchor and through the Corner Leg, as shown.
c. Pull the Cable tight and secure it using a
Cable Clamp (11-3). Tighten the two nuts on the Cable Clamp evenly to secure the Cable.
d. Repeat for all remaining Anchors and Corner Legs.
