wood and four (4) bolts. With the foam packing still in place around the base of the
tensioner assembly, remove the inner carton
and lay it on its side on the floor. Remove the
four (4) shipping bolts from the underside of
the carton with a screw driver. Upright the
carton on the floor and remove the tensioner
assembly. Retain the bolts, wood and cartons for future shipment.

between the fiberglass covers and the

installed before removing the four center
screws that attach the tensioner assembly to the upper post flange.
To install the feet, tilt the tensioner back on its
side and screw the four feet into the holes at
the corners of the base.
Stand Upper Post Installation
After installing the four corner feet, remove
the four (4) button head cap screws and flat
washers from the base of the tensioner.
