Parts:
- B extrusion ×3 · Frame Kit 2.4-350 box
- A extrusion ×2, prepared · already on the bench
- M5×16 BHCS ×6, already in the A extrusions · already on the bench
Do: Repeat Step 01.7 at the other three corners, working around the frame, adding the last two bottom A extrusions as you go. Access holes outward every time. Snug only.
Check
Bottom square closed, four verticals standing, 8 of the 16 blind joints engaged. The assembly still sits flat on the stone with no rock.
Helper Holds each vertical upright while you slide it over the bolt heads.
What you're looking at
Manual p.16 shows the other three verticals and the last two bottom horizontals, closing the base into a rectangle. Everything stays snug rather than tight so the assembly can still be nudged square before anything locks.
