BASE FRAME ASSEMBLY (ADDITIONAL PURCHASE)
The optional base frame provides a level, square surface
on which to set the greenhouse frame. It is strongly
recommended that you use this base.
The optional base is assembled and squared and set into
the ground. It is then anchored in place using ground posts
or other approved anchoring methods described in these
instructions.
This base is an additional purchase. Contact your sales
consultant for additional information and to purchase.
NOTE: The frame in the following instructions may differ
from the actual frame in size and/or color. The assembly
procedures are the same.

THIS PACKET BEFORE YOU BEGIN.
The following steps describe how to assemble the optional
base frame for the greenhouse.
1. Unpack the base kit to identify the parts.

nuts and bolts and place these at one corner of the
base.

ATTENTION: If you plan to place the base on a
concrete slab or patio, you must remove the "leg"
portion of the frame support posts. Before you
assemble the base as shown below, cut the frame
support posts so they are the same length as the base
channel is wide.
