The invention provides a self-elevating platform pile leg mounting method which includes the steps: positioning and floating a main hull with built base pile leg sections in a dry dock; keeping the base pile leg sections vertically static relative to the main hull, gradually lifting the pile leg sections to be mounted to a folding port by a sea crane, and positioning and welding the pile leg sections until the pile leg sections on the main hull reach a preset height. The sea crane is positioned at a designated position in an open sea area of the dry dock. Lifting of the pile leg and standing are omitted, and construction period is shortened. As both the main hull and the sea crane float, relative positions of the main hull and the sea crane float can be adjusted, and the pile leg is conveniently folded.
