SUPERPOLE™ PREPARATION
B1.

 See steps A1 and A2 on page 2. Complete these instructions and 

then continue with step B2. 

SUPERBAR™ PREPARATION
B2.

 Unpack the SuperBar™ hand rail unit (10). Using the small hex 

key wrench (11) and countersunk screw (12), attach one white plastic 
pivot bushing (13) to top side of the SuperBar™ hand rail unit as 
shown in 

Figure 5

. Set aside the other plastic pivot bushing and 

screw. Remove the cover sleeve (6) from the pole assembly (2).

B3. 

Slide the SuperBar™ hand rail unit (10) onto the pole assembly 

(2) as shown in 

Figure 6

 (side with attached pivot bushing to go on 

first). Slide it on as straight as possible to avoid scratching the pole.

B4.

 Unpack and slide the grooved collar (14) onto the pole (2) as 

shown in 

Figure 6

. Gently slide the collar up the pole to avoid scratch-

ing the pole.  Next slide the other white plastic pivot bushing (13) and 
the cover sleeve (6) (removed in step B2) up the pole (2).

IMPORTANT

- The next step is to fix the grooved collar (14) to the 

pole (2). The position of the grooved collar determines the height of 
the bar and the rotational locking position of the bar. 

 

Alternate Installation Option

Steps 

B5

 and 

B6

 can be completed after the pole has been raised in 

place (steps 

A3

 to 

A7 

on page 2) to better determine optimal height 

and locking positions of the SuperBar™.  You may also install just one 
set screw to test a height/angle setting of the SuperBar™.

BE CERTAIN THAT THE GROOVED COLLAR IS AT THE 
CORRECT HEIGHT AND ORIENTATION BEFORE PROCEEDING.

SUPERBAR™ INSTALLATION
B5.

 Once the grooved collar (14) has been set to its desired location, 

fasten the grooved collar to the pole (2) by installing and tightening 
the three set screws (15) with the larger hex key wrench (16).  You will 
need to slide the spring collar (17) upward to gain access to the screw 
holes. 

IMPORTANT - These screws MUST be tightened until the 

back end of the screw is flush with the collar

 or injury may result

By tightening these set screws, the cone points will penetrate the pole 
for positive engagement, thereby leaving permanent indentations in 
the pole (refer to 

Figure 8

).

NOTE!

 Should you need to change the position of the height/angle 

setting, we recommend that you change the height by at least one 
inch. This will avoid set screw indentations from being too close to 
each other and thereby weakening the pole.

B6. 

Next, slide the spring collar (17) downward on the grooved collar 

(14) as shown in 

Figure 8

 to retain set screws (15) while in service. 

Inspect frequently to ensure screws and collar are tight.

B7.

 Install the remaining white plastic pivot bushing (13) and secure it 

with the countersunk screw (12) using the small hex key wrench (11).

B8.

 See steps 

A3

 to 

A7

 on page 2. Complete these instructions to 

finish the installation of your SuperPole™ with SuperBar™.

Your SuperPole™ with SuperBar™ is now installed.

1. Height of Hand Rail

 - The height at which you fix the 

grooved collar determines the height of the SuperBar™ hand 
rail unit (10). Consider the optimal height of the bar from 
sitting and standing positions. The height of the bar will 
change as the pole is installed (dependant on the difference 
in height between the ceiling and the pole - see 

Figure 7

).

2. Rotational Locking Position

 - Each of the grooves 

correspond to a rotational locking position of the hand rail unit 
(refer to 

Figure 8

). You will want to fix the grooves to have the 

hand rail lock in the most advantageous positions for your 
assistance as discussed on page 1 ("Getting Started").

SUPERBAR™ INSTRUCTIONS

Prior to installing the SuperPole™ with SuperBar™, we 
recommend that you first read through these instructions.
