STEP 4:
A) Continue assembling the two petals
as above. Before installing the last
petal, place the center plate (item 4)
beneath the center of the reflector and
attach the center hub (item 3) on top
with 1 / 4”
hardware (items 9, 10, 11). Leave
hardware loose enough to rotate hub.
B) Place the last petal in position, insuring
that the lip on its inner edge is located
between the center hub and plate.
Attach this petal to the adjacent petal
at holes A and B. At this time, the
reflector is strong enough to sustain
the weight of the installer to place the
bolts in holes D & E. Remember not to
insert bolts in hole C as those will be
taken care of in the next section. Be
sure to step only on the ribs, not on the
surface in between.
C) Now tighten all reflector bolts. Before
tightening, check to be sure that all the
petals are aligned properly. It may be
necessary to adjust one petal in or out
(radially) until the rim is flush. Also
check up and down alignment. It is
possible to lift the reflector slightly to
feel the front surface, making sure that
it is flush. Tighten all A bolts first. Next
tighten all B bolts, then D and E.
Note: Before tightening the last set of
reflector bolts, the ones closest to the
hub, check to make sure that the lip on
the inner edges of all petals are located
between the center plate and the center
hub plate.
