Vertical Supports

After all three (3) hoop assemblies are in place, attach the 48" vertical supports from hoop assembly to hoop
assembly as shown. This will require ten (10) supports, five (5) between each set of hoops. The 2

nd

set of

vertical supports will need to be bent at the flat area to allow for the tapering of the bottom hoop assembly.
Use 5/16" x 3/4" bolts (unless otherwise noted) with the head of the bolt to the inside of the safety cage.
