Eave Platform Mounting Angle Installation
Figure 7H shows the location of the platform mounting angles (B). Each angle must be mounted starting
8" above the top horizontal seam of the second ring with the first mounting angle (B) offset 9-3/8" from the
right hand starter bracket (A). The second mounting angle (B) must be located 56-1/4" from the first
mounting angle (B). The dimensions and locations of these angles are critical for proper fit of all parts.
Using the platform mounting angels (B) as guides, field drill 3/8" holes in the sidewall every 8".
