GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS:
Check MONTHLY for loose bolts, damaged or broken parts. Tighten and/or
replace immediately. Replace any parts that show a reduction of 25%
from the original size.
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.
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION:
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. All Bolts must be covered with Bolt Caps
and Covers
STEP #1:
Using Footing Diagram as a guide, mark and dig footing holes.
Footing holes are to be 12” in diameter and 1’-6” deep (6” of dry
concrete or other blocking material at the bottom of the hole
allowing 12 inches of the post to be put into the hole),
depending upon amount of resilient safety surfacing used, local
climate and soil structure, and topography of land.
Note: The slanted tabs on the ground anchor should slant in
towards the center post.
STEP #2:
Attach the Aztec Plastic Panel to the Aztec Panel Ground Anchor
by placing the Plastic Panels over the tabs of Ground Anchors.
Note: The King Figure must be on the lower left.
NOTE: King figure
