Assembly
Assembly of Legs (#8), Down Supports (#9), and Mid Supports (#16).
1. The top of each Leg (#8) has a closed end with a hole drilled in it. Attach a Down Support (#9) to the bottom hole on a Leg (#8) using a Bolt (#12), a Washer (#14), and a Nut
(#13). Make sure you attach to the inside of the angle iron on the Leg (#8). Do not fully
tighten yet.
2. Move up the same Leg (#8) to the middle hole and attach a Mid Support (#16) using a
Bolt (#12), a Washer (#14), and a Nut (#13).
3. Next, repeat the process adding a second Down Support (#9) and a Mid Support (#16)
to the leg you just assembled.
4. You should now have one Leg (#8) with two Down Supports (#9) and two Mid Supports
(#16). Take both remaining Legs (#8) and attach them to Down Supports (#9), and Mid
Supports (#16) on the previously assembled Leg (#8).
5. Next, put the last Down Support (#9) and Mid Support (#16) between the two remaining
Legs (#8). Tighten all of the Nuts (#13) and Bolts (#12).
6. The Upper Supports (#15) are “L” shaped with one end shorter than the other. Attach
the shorter end to the upper holes on the Legs (#8) of the tripod you just constructed
using a Bolt (#12), a Washer (#14), and a Nut (#13), for each Upper Support (#15). See
the Assembly Diagram on Page 4 to show correct position of each Upper Support (#15).
7. The Base Stand (#7) has two metal triangles welded to the top section of it, below the
Lock Pin (#11) hole. Lower the Base Stand (#7) into the tripod you just constructed,
bottom rst. The lower triangle should rest on top of the Upper Supports (#15), lining up
with the holes of both the Upper Supports (#15) and the holes on the triangle. The upper triangle should rest on top of each Leg (#8), lining up the holes in the triangles with
the holes on the end of each Leg (#8). Secure the bottom triangle to the Upper Supports (#15) using a Bolt (#12), a Washer (#14), and a Nut (#13). Repeat the process
securing the upper triangle to each Leg (#8) using a Bolt (#12), Washer (#14), and a Nut
(#13).
8. Part numbers 2,3,4,5, and 6 come pre-assembled. The Pan (#1) and the Handles (#10)
must be added to the Shaft (#6) assembly. Set the Pan (#1) on top of the Screw Rod
(#2) and attach it with a Bolt (#12). Next, screw each Handle (#10) into the threaded
holes on the Bearing (#4).
9. Take the assembled Shaft (#6) and insert it into the tube of the Base Stand (#7). Lower
it to the desired level and insert the Lock Pin (#11) to secure it at the appropriate height.
