(#8) Using 16 each 2-3/4” Allen Head Bolts in hardware bag (Part D) and 16 each
11/16” hex head lock nuts along with 16 each washer provided. (Washer will go on

Attach each rear section of ‘V’ shape lower frame (#8) to each side of back frame assembly using
(2)ea (#6) curved rib frame piece on each side. (Back frame assembly is pre-welded without dolly
assembly attached).
Use 2” length full thread Allen head bolts from hardware bag (Part F) and Lock washer inserts
(also in Part F bag). Allen wrench tool is provided if needed. Use 10” pointed alignment rod if
needed to help align hole with lock washer. Be sure all bolts are secured tight.
STEP 4 (Wheel assembly)
1. Locate (2) turf tires and mounting plate shown in illustration above. Hardware for the
wheel assembly is located in bag ‘Part I’. Wheel shafts are located in ’Part J’
1. Attach mounting plate to turf tire using tire shaft and washers as shown in pictures
above. Be sure to use washer and tube spacer on each side of wheel shaft to allow
wheel shaft to spin freely. (Figures 2,3) Heavy duty cotter pins will be use to hold
wheel shaft in place. Once tire is secured to mounting plate, attach mounting plate
to frame protector assembly by pushing the plate wheel shaft into wheel protector
opening and securing with adjustable lock pin shown in Figure 1.

mounting shaft is attached to plate as shown using proper ring spacer between tire
mounting plate and shaft.
2. Using (2) Elbow brackets, dolly handle, wheel shaft, and hardware in bag (Part E).
Begin assembly as shown in pictures above. Be sure that the heads of the bolts are
on the inside of the mounting plate facing the tires and the nuts are on the outside of
the mounting plates. Be sure to use washers and wheel shaft to mount tire same as
in Step 4. Use heavy duty cotter pins to secure wheel shaft in place. The mounting
plate will be inserted to upper shaft of mounting plate. It may take 2 persons to lift
back frame assembly to properly mount dolly assembly inside the upper wheel shaft.
The weight of the cage keeps the dolly assembly in place.
STEP 6 (ATTACHING FRONT CORNER FRAME)
1. Locate corner frames shown above. Mount each side to mounting bracket on front
of ‘V’ shaped lower frame assembly. Also secure V frame to already welded front
bracket as well. Use 3.5”L bolts and nuts and washers provided in hardware bag (Part

STEP 7 (ATTACHING ANGLE BRACKETS)
1. Using same bolts, nuts, and washers from Step 6 above, attach angle bracket to ‘V’
shape lower frame. The bracket will attach midway up the frame on holes provided.
NOTE: LOOSELY attach bracket to lower frame assembly only to allow openings to
attach rib frame assemblies in Step 8.
STEP 8 (UPPER RIB FRAME ASSEMBLY)
Figure 1: Figure 2:
1. Lay out all rib curved rib frames and all straight pipes to begin upper rib frame
assembly.

2. Begin by attaching curved rib frame to each side of a 78” straight pipe securing with
2” full thread allen head bolts and lock washer inserts.
3. The curved rib frame that is attached in the front of the cage will also need a 64”
straight pipe on each side to make up for height and attached to front reinforced
corner frame.
4. Once each rib section is assembled begin attaching to angle brackets from Step 7. And
secured tightly with same bolts used in Step 7. It will require 2 persons to lift section
and add in place.
**At this point please go back to all nuts and bolts and be sure all are properly
tightened. Take care not to over tighten bolts or nuts.
5. At this point the cage will be in the dropped down form.
STEP 9 (ATTACHING VINYL SKIRT AND THUD PAD)
1. Lay out the Vinyl skirt to get an idea of the layout. The ‘ProCage™’ logo will face the
front and should be upright. This will help with proper alignment. Use zip ties to mock
up layout pattern by using zip ties in a few areas to make easier for using lacing twine
to attach. You may also use only zip ties if you choose. Be sure skirt is tight and
matches perfectly with shape of the frame. Some small spacing is ok on top and
bottom.
2. Attach thud pad in front center of cage and skirt by using zip ties or lacing twine.
