I've posted pictures so your assembly goes easier than mine. Directions and diagrams included aren't the best. 1. This is well thought out build wise. It will last. If you don't run into things and you follow the directions. Very adjustable. Storable and the base does not drag the ground like most do. 2. Directions are ify on what way the bars go. Do not use a impact. Wrenches only. When you get to Tha bag part where it says insert the top skinny rod. Skip it and proceed. You'll put that in almost last. It gets in the way otherwise. 3. On the bottom rod the end caps need holes punched in them. Or you can leave them off. OK so the hitch isn't spring loaded like most and those spacers will be irritating. The bag rides up off the ground and I like this compared to my old one. The bag got beat in turns near curbs fences and landscaping. This one is just high enough to clear. One center adjustment is nice. Once you set it for your yard. That will be it. It picks up even needles cones nuts and grass. Great value. Just plan to take your time on assembly. I use a high power magnet to hold the rope end onto the arm rest of my tractor. I can dump and reload from the seat. 100% satisfied
