Assembly & Installation Instructions:

Unistrut Stand Assembly (see online video for

additional instructions – http://sports

timer.com/boat race clock/ ):

Tools Required – 9/16 Socket Wrench, 9/16 Box Wrench

Hardware Included– 12 pieces 3/8”x0.75” hex bolts; 8 pieces

3/8”x1” hex bolts; 4 pieces 3/8”x1.5” hex bolts; 4 pieces 3/8”x2” hex

bolts; 24 pieces 3/8” channel nuts; 32 pieces 3/8” flat washer; 2 L-

brackets; 2 Reinforced L-brackets

•Mark the holes you're going to use on the struts

•3' Foot Pieces – mark between the 7th and 8th hole from each

end, the 8th hole serves as the outer hole for each bracket

•5' Upright Pieces – bracket the 9th hole from one end with tape

and the 3rd hole from the other end for one piece,

•10' Horizontal Cross Pieces – bolt holes 7th and 15 away from

that plus the one after it and another 15 away from that, then do

the same from the other end of the bar

•ttach L-brackets to the 3' foot pieces using 3/8”x1” hex bolt,

flat washer, 3/8” channel nut (drop nut into channel and rotate

into place) – first by hand, then using the 9/16” Socket or Box

Wrench – Before tightening fully, insert an Upright piece

between brackets to ensure proper spacing

•ttach 5' Upright Piece by sliding channel between the two L-

brackets then use 3/8”x2” hex bolts and flat washers to fix in

place – Tighten with 9/16” Socket and Box Wrenches – front of

strut must be facing direction of the reinforced -brackets
