Again, using the figure above as a guide, secure the remaining mesh edges with the PVC clips. A
total of 18 PVC clips are required overall Their position is indicated above.
4.0 Basket Assembly
(14) 1” x 1” tubes form the frame for the Super “C” basket. To simplify the assembly and minimize mistakes divide
these tubes into three groups.
Group 1 - all the five tubes with 1/8” screw holes on at least one surface.
Group 2 - four tubes all 22” in length
Group 3 - all the remaining tubes
You will need a flat surface again for the basket assembly.
A. Basket - base frame-
Collect the tubes. Locate the two 28” tubes with 1/8” holes on two surfaces. Place
them opposite each other with holes facing up and out.
1)
Locate the 26” pieces with the 1/8” holes and place them opposite each other and between the 28” tubes with
the holes again facing up and out.
2)
Using a ruler find the center of the two 28” tubes and mark with a pencil. Locate two PVC corners and slide
one over each of the 28” tubes set one edge of the prong next to the center mark just created with the pencil. The
prongs should face in or away from the screw holes on the other side of the tube.
3)
Locate the 26” 1” x 1” tube and attach a “U” bolt through the holes in the center of this tube. Now attach this tube to
one of the prongs on the 28” tubes. The U part of the U-bolt should face the same side as your penciled center mark.
Make sure the 1/8” holes are facing up, like the holes on the other tubes. Now slide one end of the 26” tube over the
prong on the 28” tube and snug the corner. You have formed a T frame.
4)
Locate four more PVC corners. Place a corner on each of the four ends of the 28 inch tubes. The prongs on
one end should face the prong on the opposite tube. All these corners should be placed 1 inch in from the end of each tube
or roughly the width of another corner or tube.
5)
Carefully without moving the corners, insert the two 26” tubes into the remaining two prongs of your T frame.
Now, carefully line up the other ends of these tubes with the prongs on the other 28” gently slide all three of these tubes
over the prongs on the other 28” tube and snug. You have formed a rigid rectangle.
