You now have all the frame components attached to the frame except the last End Rail. Make sure
all of the connections are fitted tightly and tighten all of the screws you have installed so far on the
top side of the frame. Use the Hex Bit to fully tighten the Stainless Steel Tapered Head Screw while
holding in place the Stainless Steel Nylon Locknut with a 3/8” Box End Wrench.
This illustration shows the remaining connection of the Crossmember
into the Side Rail that remains unattached. The purpose for this is to
allow room to slide individual boards into place in the forward section
of the frame. (If you are planning on making removable drop in deck
panels for the frame you can disregard this step and install the screws
and tighten this connection to the Side Rail.)
