Note: Until steps 1-7 are completed, only finger-tighten hardware to allow the Windmill to
fit together properly.
1. First assemble each of the four legs. Each leg consists of l each of Leg Sections #5A,
#5B and #5C. Upper Leg Section (#5A) is the shortest of the leg sections (the end with
the hole drilled on the corner faces downward. The end with the hole drilled on the side
faces upward and will be connected to the Mast Head (#3) in step 3 below).
2. Lower Leg Section (#5C) has an oval shaped hole on one end. This end faces downward and is designed to accept the Ground Stakes (#9) discussed in step 12. Connect
each Middle Leg Section (#5B) with each Lower Leg Section (#5C) - the recessed end of
each lower piece fits inside the lower portion of each Middle Section and is attached
using a Screw and Nut. Now connect the upper portion of each Middle Leg Section
(#5B) with the lower portion of the Upper Leg Section (#5A) using a Screw and Nut.
3. Once the four legs are fully assembled, connect the upper end of each Upper Leg Section (#5A) to the Mast Head (#3). The Mast Head fits inside the four legs - connect Mast
Head using four Screws and Nuts.
4. Slide the Platform (#4) down over the Mast Head and onto the four connected Upper Leg
Sections (#5A). The Platform connects to each Upper Leg Section (#5A) with a Screw
and Nut.
5. Attach an Upper Brace (#7) between each leg to stabilize the center portion of the Windmill. Secure each Upper Brace with Screws and Nuts.
6. Attach a Lower Brace (#8) between each leg to stabilize the lower portion of the Windmill. Secure each Lower Brace with Screws and Nuts.
7. Attach the 16 Diagonal Braces (#6) as shown in the illustration on page 3. Secure each
with Screws and Nuts. Tighten all hardware securely at this time.
Assembling the Windmill Wheel Assembly:
8. Assemble together the Rudder (#2C) with the two Rudder Extension (#2B) pieces. One
end of each Rudder Extension (#2B) fits on opposite sides of the Rudder (#2C). Tie all
three pieces together with two Screws and two Nuts.
9. Slide the end of the Shaft (#2A) between the other end of the two Rudder Extension
(#2B) pieces, and tighten in place with two Screws and two Nuts.

10. Before placing the Wheel (#1) on the axle of the Shaft (#2A), place one Flat Washer on
the axle. When placing the Wheel (#1) on the axle, the side of the Wheel with the zerk
fitting should be facing inward towards the Shaft. With the Wheel on the axle, add the
other Flat Washer and secure in place with a Cotter Pin.
11. Attach the Wheel assembly to the Mast Head (#3) by placing the shaft portion of the
Shaft (#2A) down into the hole portion of the Mast Head (#3). Lock in place by adding a
Cotter Pin through the hole in the bottom portion of the shaft.
12. Position the Windmill in the desired flat, level location. Place the four Ground Stakes
(#9) through the oval shaped holes in the bottom of each Lower Leg Section (#5C). The
Ground Stakes should be positioned at a 45 degree angle and hammered into the soil to
secure the Windmill. Note: for a more secure mounting, a cement base is recommended.
13. Greasing the Wheel (#1): Use a regular bearing grease to lubricate the Wheel several
times per year.
