NOTE: In order to know where the posts need to be placed, check the numbers on them. If the posts are not marked, place the
single Supports on the ground to locate the markings for each post position and clearly set your bearings. (“Don´t attach yet, only
place them on the ground to begin with”).
Step 1: Install the anchor bases (15) with ½´´ X 3 ½´´ anchor bolts or lag bolts (B or C). Please see the “How to anchor your
pergola document” for all details. Set your posts (1 and 2) in the saddles of the anchor bases. Drill ø ¼´´ holes in the posts prior
to anchoring to facilitate the ratcheting of the hardware. After that, use 5/16´´ X 3´´ lag bolts (A)to attach each post to its
respective anchor base.
Step 2: Attach the wall mounted anchors (18) to the wall with ½´´ X 3 ½´´ anchor bolts or lag bolts (A or C).
