Assembling the S5 Frame

Tools required:

• Hex drivers, 1/8”, 3/16”, 7/32”, ¼”, 5/32”

• Flat-bladed screwdriver, ¼”

• Socket wrench, ½”

• Silicon grease for bolts (Finish Line bicycle grease works great)

• Aux leg (item 20, not shown on some frame drawings)

• Bus wire, two 24” pieces

• Tap set for 3/8” 24 (3/8” 16 for newer box beams) and 5/16 18 threads

Minimum number of people required: 2. For a 12-foot frame, 3 people are required.

Refer to the System 5 Frame drawings (pages 7-8) and the Parts Lists at the end of this

manual to help with parts identification and visualization of the steps set forth in this procedure.

1) Verify that all screws and bolts have been greased. If they aren’t greased, apply silicon grease to

all of them.

2) Start with inserting the middle box beam (item 2) in the left leg (item 3, Leg Left). You may have to

drop the leg panel (item 18, legpnl) to get it in easily. Two people need to hold up the beam,

while the third person holds up the leg. Guide the beam into the leg (flat side up). Insert a 3/8”

24x1.5 button head bolt (046-06421-00) with a 3/8” flat washer (081-07193-00) through the leg

hole and into the beam, being careful not to strip the threads. Tighten the bolt fully, using a

7/32” hex driver.
