2. Assemble the timber base
The base is built upside down and then flipped over to give a level top surface for
attaching the hutch. The longer, narrower pieces of timber at the front and back
provide a gap to insert loader tines to move the completed hutch easily.
a) To assemble the base you will need:
 The bag of timber base fixings
 Two pieces of side timber (2.14m x 150mm x 100mm)
 Two pieces of front / back timber (2.5m x 100mm x 100mm)
b) Lay the timber components out on a flat area as shown below
c) Mark out and pre-drill one 8mm hole per corner as indicated by
d) Slide one washer onto each bolt & insert one bolt per corner into pre-drilled
holes.
e) Position L brackets against front & sides as indicated in the diagram.
f) Attach L brackets to timber with screws provided.
g) Lift and flip the base over so the upper surface is flush ready for the hutch to be
lowered on.
This picture shows the finished hutch mounted
on the timber.

3. Assemble the MultiMax Hutch
a) You will need:
 Left and right side panels, roof and back
 Bag of hutch fixing components AH-151-1
b) Place the left and right sides of the MultiMax
on the ground standing upright approx. 5 feet
(1.5m) apart as shown.
c) Attach the back of the MultiMax to the
sides. Bolt the back onto the outside of the
sides using the small bolts and back up
washers starting at the top. Insert the bolt with a washer from the inside and
attach a washer and nut from the outside.
d) Attach the roof. Put the roof over the back and sides. The sides should be
adjusted so the ribs on the roof line up with the ribs on the sides. Bolt the roof
to the sides starting at the back. Insert a bolt with a washer from the inside and
attach a washer and nut from the outside.
e) Occasionally the pre-drilled holes in the sides are missing or do not line up and
will need to be re-drilled with a 6mm drill bit using the holes in the top and back
as a template.
Start attaching back here: 8 bolts on each side and 9 across the top.
Start attaching roof here: 5 bolts per side. Save 2 bolts per side to
attach through tabs at front in stage 5.

4. Attach the Hutch to the Base
a) You will need the bag of hutch to base components
AH-150-1
b) Put the hutch on the base with the front opening at the
front of the base nearest the L brackets.

washers and screws starting at the back corner and
going across the back first.
d) Fasten the two angle brackets near the entrance as
shown to secure the hutch to the base.
