Erecting an Ellis Shore is EASY, to begin simply attach two clamps to the lower shore member and then slide the upper shore member through the set of clamps. When the desired height is obtained final adjustments can be made w/ the Ellis Jack Wrench. The clamps can then be tapped down to seat them. Then simply drive a safety nail above each casting on the upper shore member. This is intended to keep the clamps from vibrating loose not for supporting any weight.
