Appendix 1, Assembly of handrail mounting kit
•
Disassemble the bracket guide and place
around the telescopic rod.
•
Use the SS screws on bracket to tighten the
bracket to the rod.
•
Mount the Flexible Mounting Bracket on existing handrail or on
separate holder. The bent lip on the mounting plate shall be on top
and faced toward the liquid or tank. Adjust the Mounting Bracket to
the correct angle and tighten the nuts. The bracket shall be fixed to
the rail, and must not be able to rotate around it.
•
Insert the PVC bracket guide with the telescopic rod
into the mounting bracket. Make sure that the bracket
guide tracks are properly seated in the bracket.
•
Fasten the safety-locking clamp.
•
Check that the bracket is safely fixed to the rail for the
spring to work the way it is intended.
Example of a holder
to be used for the
mounting bracket
when no handrail is
•
Pull the cable and hose through the sensor holder and rod.
•
Connect the telescoping fiberglass rod to the sensor with the two piece black PVC adapter.
•
The adapter halves should be tightened until snug, which will leave about 1/16" gap.
NOTE!
The gap is required so the water can drain from the rod.
•
Adjust the length of the telescopic sensor rod as necessary by twisting the nuts while holding the
rod.
NOTE!
Do not extend the rod sections beyond the black lines. This could lead to rod damage.
