Welded wire mesh is seen eveywhere. Since field fence rolls are heavier than
barbed wire rolls, you should spend the time necessary to clear a wide enough
fence line area to allow you to unroll the fencing.
1. Unroll the fence on the side of the posts you want it placed with the
bottom nearest the posts. Leave approximately 2-3 extra feet of fencing at the
anchor post.
2. Strip the first two vertical stay wires so that you have at least 12
inches of line wire. With the last stay wire against the anchor post, staple the
fence at the correct position. Start with the middle wire, wrap each free line
wire tightly around the anchor post and then back on itself for at least 5
wraps.
3. Slowly unroll the fence to the next braced assembly.
4. Stop as the fence is rolling out to prop the fencing upright as shown.
5. Splice as needed. Commercial compression sleeves are well worth the
cost.
6. If compression sleeves are not used, leave 6 inches of line wire beyond
the last stay wire on both ends of the fence rolls. Match the vertical stays,
then wrap each free end of both fence rolls to the opposite fence.
