(4) (5)
Decide where you want the carport to face. The front columns should be the 9' front columns (4), and
the back columns should be the 10'-7'' back columns (5).
Slide the 9' front columns base plate (4) and 10'-7" back columns base plate (5) onto the anchored
footing and secure them to your enchores.
Slide the Escutcheon Plate (base plate cover) (6) on each column and cover the base plates.

In order to level the system, the corner sleeves (8, 9, 10, 11), straight connector sleeves (14), and
middle connector sleeves (15) are equipped with precut hex holes that perfectly accommodate the
provided flanged nuts (2).
Using these flanged nuts and 1" bolts, you can apply pressure to the beams (12, 13) during the final
assembly phase to level the roof of the structure.
To proceed, insert one flanged nut into each hex hole, ensuring the flange sits within the sleeve while
the hex nut protrudes from the hole. Next, secure each nut in place by screwing in a 1" bolt to prevent
it from falling out. Ensure that the bolt does not extend beyond the flange to avoid any interference
when later sliding the beams (12, 13) into the sleeves.
Keep in mind that you must connect all 36 bolts and nuts during the process.
Once the installation is complete, tighten all the bolts (2) to level the beams (12, 13) effectively.
