X-Frame sides:

For the left side you will need legs A and B. If you are assembling
the frame for the two-beam version, use legs B and E. Fit the legs
together at the notch in the center

Slide a 2-1/2” carriage bolt from the outside through the center
hole at the crossing of the legs.
Note:
The Cloth Beam Bracket is on the inside of the frame.

Slide a Center Brace onto the bolt. Install a washer and wing nut,
and tighten to ‘finger tight’ condition.

Repeat this process for the remaining four holes using the 2 1/2”
carriage bolts, washers and wing nuts to fully secure the Center
