STEP 3. PLACE APPROX. 3” OF GRAVEL IN HOLE (ALLOWS FOR DRAINAGE)

STEP 4. PLACE ALUMINUM GROUND SLEEVE INTO GRAVEL—TO PREVENT CONCRETE FROM FLOWING INSIDE. USE BLUE CAP TO COVER GROUND SLEEVE SO CEMENT DOES NOT GET INSIDE SLEEVE.

STEP 5. MIX CEMENT AND POUR AROUND GROUND SLEEVE. REPEAT UNTIL HOLE IS FILLED (IT’S OK TO HAVE YOUR GROUND SLEEVE AN INCH OR TWO ABOVE GROUND LEVEL—FILLING IN WITH MULCH, DIRT, FLOWER BED)

STEP 6. INSERT POLE SECTION INTO GROUND SLEEVE (CAREFULLY—CEMENT WILL BE WET) CAREFULLY INSERT POLE INTO GROUND SLEEVE AS CEMENT WILL BE WET. USE A LEVEL TO MAKE SURE POLE IS STRAIGHT. REMOVE POLE SECTION AFTER LEVEL, CONCRETE MUST CURE FOR AT LEAST 24 HOURS.

STEP 7. ASSEMBLE FLAGPOLE, ATTACH BALL, CLIPS, AND FLAG

STEP 8. INSERT INTO GROUND SLEEVE. ENJOY OLD GLORY!
