FIG. 3.6
3.3.4.
Adjust the ramp legs one at a time.
ADA guidelines call for a maximum slope of 1:12 (approximately 5°) and this is
the ideal slope for the PATHWAY 3G system. However, the ramps can be
installed from 1:14 to 1:8 (approximately 4° to 7°). Do not attempt to install the
ramps outside this range.
NOTE if the ramp is installed at the maximum angle (approximately 7°) longer
legs may be required.
3.3.4.1.
Raise the ramp sections (at the center saddle bracket) to take any
sag out of the ramp run, then tighten the two locknuts in each
leg.
Adjusting sections can be accomplished by having someone sight down the
ramp while another person adjusts the ramp height.
It’s important to ensure that the ramp sections are parallel to each other. If
they are not, it may be difficult to install the handrails (FIG. 3.7).
3.3.4.2.
Insert a plug into the top of each leg (FIG. 3.5).
3.3.5.
Ensure that all bolts are tight and the ramp sections are aligned parallel to one
another.
