Prepare a Foundation for Your Sun Lounge
The Sun Lounge is secured to the wall by using supplied frame clamps and screws, screw/concrete anchor sets
or expansion anchors (not supplied) depending on the wall surface. They should be 6 mm (
B
”) in diameter and
no less than 40 mm (1
A
”) long. Make sure that you have checked with your local authorities regarding any
required building permits. Required quantities are shown below.
Decide at this time the final orientation of your Rion Sun Lounge. We recommend that you place your Sun
Lounge against a wall that receives direct sunlight and is protected from the wind as much as possible.
It is important to clear your Sun Lounge of snow in the winter.
Modular Base
If you have purchased the optional Sun Lounge Modular Base follow the assembly instructions in the
packaging. The Sun Lounge Modular Base can be placed in an excavated hole or on the ground. In either case
you will require approximately 0.21 cubic meters (7.4 cubic feet) per section of gravel or earth or other suitable
material to fill the base. All required hardware and tools are included.
Wood Deck
Your Sun Lounge can be secured to a wood deck with screws (not supplied) through the frame connectors. Use
screws that are 6 mm (
B
”) in diameter and no less than 70 mm (2
C
”) long. Make sure that the wood deck
itself is securely anchored to the ground.
Concrete Foundation
Prepare a poured concrete foundation according to local building codes. Do not excavate and pour concrete in
frozen ground.
Pour your foundation according to the size of the Sun Lounge model you have selected. Make sure that the
foundation is at least 10 cm (4”) larger than the size of the Sun Lounge.
The Rion Sun Lounge is secured to the concrete foundation using screws and concrete anchors or expansion
anchors (not supplied). They should be 6 mm (
B
”) in diameter and no less than 70 mm (2
C
”) long. A drill with
a suitable masonry bit is required. See quantities below.
