TOOL OPTIONS FOR DRIVING PIPE INTO GROUND   GOOD BETTER 5lb Sledgehammer  BEST 10lb Sledgehammer  DO NOT USE Hammer Post Pounder Purchase post pounder at any hardware store or go to: www.wambamfence.com. Post pounders cost roughly $25 to $30 at hardware store (or rental stores often have for rent). STEP ONE Install Anchor Pipes 1 1 After establishing your fence lines with string and stake, drive your first pipe into the ground.
PAGE 3
STEP T WO Optional: Install Post over Anchor Pipe Optional If your ground is dry and hard, use a claw hammer to loosen 2” or 4“ of dirt around the base of the pipe. This will allow the vinyl post to easily insert itself into the ground in step 2 below. 1 Orient post correctly with tabs at top and slide the vinyl post over the anchor pipe down into the ground. 2 Using a wood block (or something to protect the top of the vinyl extrusion), pound down the post another 2” to 4” below the ground.
PAGE 4
STEP T WO 4 Use the self-drilling tek screw to secure the bottom of just one vinyl post to the pipe as illustrated. The hex head screws are designed to be installed without pre-drilling, however you may find that using the included drill bit for pre-drilling will allow easier installation of hex head screw into pipe. 5 Using a level, adjust the top of the vinyl post to level as illustrated.
PAGE 5
STEP THREE 1 Install Fence Panel 1 Install one vinyl bracket on the vinyl post that has been secured to the pipe using 3/4” screws (approximately 2” off the ground) 2 in 2 Slide second bracket over the opposite end of the bottom rail and slide the rail down into the pre-installed bracket on the opposing side. 3 Use a level on the top of the bottom rail to determine height of opposing bracket and mark for installation. 2 Note: Adjust this post by sliding left or right to fit the rail length.
PAGE 6
STEP THREE 4 4 Temporarily remove bottom rail and install bracket using screws. 5 Install top brackets as illustrated using screws, as per measurement illustrated below. 6 Orientate bottom and top rails correctly (to receive vertical pickets) and slide down into brackets. Use screws to secure. 7 Once the top and bottom rails are secured, fasten the second post, following the same steps as outlined on page 4.
PAGE 7
STEP FOUR Install Pickets & Post Caps 1 Install pickets by inserting through top rail and locking into the bottom rail. 2 Install post caps. Push down on cap to lock it to vinyl post. 1 Note: Each picket is numbered Install ONE complete panel of fence FIRST Locking Tabs Then proceed to install only one or two pipe anchors at a time, until you fully understand the fundamentals. This will help you to avoid repetitive mistakes. 2 Post tops can be trimmed down as necessary.
PAGE 8
TIPS 1 2. After you install your first panel and you have gone through the learning curve, you can opt to temporarily remove your fence panel and posts and continue driving all your pipe. This will enable you to work with an unobstructed string line. 3. 4. For easier spacing of pipe anchors, you can optionally use a piece of 1x4 wood lumber cut at 70 1/4” for step 3 on page two. Use a wood spacing guide (not included) cut to 70 1/4” to help identify the location of your next pipe anchor. 5.
PAGE 9
TIPS Installing Bottom Bracket on a 90° Corner? 1 Place the bottom bracket on the post and mark the locations of the two holes on the post. 2 Using a 9/64” drill bit for steel, pre-drill the vinyl post and internal steel pipe. 3 Install bracket to vinyl post and pipe. 1 Tip: Alternatively you can use self-drilling metal screws (not included) for steel and avoid having to pre-drill.
