First
step is to slide in your handrail hardware. Locate the
3/8”
x
2.25”
long carriage bolts. Two
(2)
carriage bolts
are used per handrail upright, there are two rail uprights on each side so you will use 4 per side.
•
Slide the head of carriage bolt into channel of ramp stringer with shaft facing out. Slide them in approximately
12”
from each end, you will use these later when attaching the handrails. One (1) in each channel at the top and bot-
tom of the ramp section as shown below.
•
Next
locate the
3/8”
x
1”
carriage bolts. Use two (
2)
per leg, one in each channel. Legs are installed at the bottom
of standard ramp runs. The bottom of the ramp should have a
“
female groove
”
in the ramp. Slide the carriage bolts
into each channel of the ramp stringer with shaft facing out as shown below.

Install Note:
The
“
male lip
”
is located at the top of a ramp and the female groove at the bottom
The legs should be installed about
3”
in from the end of the ramp
(see diagram below)
. Make sure the leg maintains a
level connection with the bottom of the footpad to ground or patio paver.
NOTE
: Legs should
NOT
be installed at an angle. The design allows the leg to pivot until a level pad to ground
connection is established.
