STEP 16
Installation of the Wheels
16.1 Using 1 1/2" x 3 1/2" pressure-treated lumber, assemble the wheel's frame using the illustrations
below as a guide. You will need two boards cut to 1'-8" that will be vertical girts and two boards cut
to 4'-3" that will be joists. Drill the holes from both sides for the wheel's axle and threaded rods.
16.2 Install two 18" wheels to the frame bottom with the help of metal threaded stud, other side
connect to the main frame with the help of shorter threaded studs or bolts.
16.3 To get the coop ready to move, lift it up and push the wheel frame so it became upright. Tightened
fixing bolts do not allow the wheels to return to their original position.
