5) Pick up the threaded
rod. Insert the rod into the center of the wooden
plug, and turn it until it stops. There should be about 5/8"
to 3/4" (16-19mm) showing above the wood (Figure F).
If there is a white line on the rod, it will be just below
the plane of the wooden plug when correctly screwed in.NOTE:
a spare threaded rod is provided for your convenience. When
you invert the sisal post after one end has been worn from
scratching, the rod may need to be loosened with a pliers.
This may damage the threads on the original rod. So you will
want to use the spare threaded rod to reassemble your scratching
post.
6) Position the top platform onto the exposed threaded
rod. Turn the platform until it stops, and then one more quarter
turn. Do not over tighten. This may damage the fasteners
which hold the platform in place. Just tighten the platform
as described above. Your cat will not be able to budge it.
If necessary, tighten the quick bolt on the base a little
more.
7) You should have a completed scratching post as shown
in Figure G. Go get a cat and show off
your job to him.Then step away from the post and let the cat
take over.
If there are assembly questions or problems, please
contact us by e-mail, first, if possible. There is also a
