Step One:

• Determine line and height of wall.
• Dig a trench 9 ” deep and 18” wide.
• Fill the trench 6" with level, compacted gravel. (3/4 minus crushed recommended)

Step Two:

• Choose a SahaleeStone pattern.
• Begin at the lowest elevation.
• Place a string line along length of wall face.
• Install first course of blocks by placing block face flush with string line. Check for level side-to-side and front-to-back.(You may use up to one inch of bedding sand to level blocks.)
• Fill behind the blocks with gravel.
• Brush excess gravel from top of blocks.

Step Three:

After placing each course of SahaleeStone you will place pins in the proper holes.

The smaller block has only one hole and must recieve a pin each time.

Step Four:

Continue stacking additional courses of block in a running bond. Sweeping excess gravel off of the tops each time, and placing pins in each block.

Step Five:

After every 6" of wall height (each course) backfill with gravel. Aggregate should go back a minimum of 12" from the back of the wall to allow for proper drainage.

Step Six:

After backfilling each course, properly compact your backfill with a hand tamper.

Step Seven and Eigth:

Once the final course of your wall has been laid. Cap your wall by placing a bead of concrete adhesive on the last course and setting your cap into place.

Landscape behing and around the wall. Sit back and enjoy.
