1. Figure 1: Bring both halves of the frame (part# 1) together.
Align the holes on the side of each half of the frame with the
holes in the connecting plates (part# 2).
2. Figure 1: Thread four (4) M10x20 carriage bolts (part# 3)
through the top two (2) holes on each of the connecting plates,
and through the holes in the frame halves. Hold them in place
with M10 lock nuts (part# 4). Note: Do not fully tighten these
bolts until step 8.
3. Figure 2: Place the tie plate (part# 7) in the middle of the top
of the frame, aligning the holes on each end with the holes in
the frame.
4. Figure 2: Add the 2" draw bar (part# 6) directly beneath the tie
plate, under the frame. Note: The three (3) holes in the top
of the draw bar must be aligned with the three (3) holes in
the tie plate.
5. Figure 2: Thread an M10x75 carriage bolt (part 8) through the center hole of the tie plate, through the middle hole of the draw bar, and hold
it loosely in place with an M10 lock nut. Place the other two (2) M10x75 carriage bolts through the holes at each end of the tie plate, but do
not secure them with lock nuts until the next step.
6. Figure 2: Place the support bridges (part# 5) under the draw bar, aligning their center holes with the M10x75 carriage bolts on each end of
the tie plate, and hold the support bridges loosely in place with M10 lock nuts. Each end of the bridge supports will then be mounted to the
edge of the frame using four (4) M10x20 carriage bolts (part# 3) and M10 lock nuts.
7. Figure 3: Thread the remaining four (4) M10x20 carriage bolts (part# 3) through the bottom holes of the frame halves near each end of the
tie plate, securing them with the remaining M10 lock nuts.
