4. Place the rail onto the stairway with the bottom
bracket on the second step, as shown. Note that the
bottom feet should approximately rest on the floor
with the rail straight, but they will be adjusted later.

5. Measure to verify that the underside of the rail
is more than 3
"
from the stair noses, both at the
second step bracket and at the upper bracket. If not,
reposition the brackets as needed. This clearance
is required for the stair lift footrest. In some
installations, you may not be able to get 3
"
or more
with the standard stair-bracket. Contact Harmar to
get tall brackets.
[Figure 17-2 & 17-3]
6. Measure from the side of the rail to the wall. The
minimum clearance that will work with a folding
stair lift rail is 3
"
. Set the folding section of the stair
lift rails to a distance of 3" from the wall or more.
This will leave about 1/2
"
of clearance at the ball of
the gas-spring.
