I have a customer who wants to bring it here but has no shipping bolts and I don't know the size offhand. (He hasn't even found the holes yet.)
Can anyone help with that?
Thanks, Tony ________
From the manual:
*Install the shipping bolts through the mechanism base on each side and completely tighten. *
*Note: The mechanism base must be in contact with the wooden platform and the springs must be fully compressed. *
Not a word about what the bolt IS though - at least in my PDF copy.
As for the bolt size? Not certain, but I suspect a 3 to 4 inch 3/8 inch bolt with a large flat washer would work. Home Depot to the rescue?
These bolts are inexpensive, just have him/her stick a pencil in the hole and see if it binds - or use various drill bits by hand to figure out the ID of the threaded hole and use that to find a suitable bolt. Obviously the testing with the drill bits is by hand! Don't want to damage the threads!!
