Platform Handrail Assembly
1.
Before connecting the platform handrails to ramp
handrails, you will first need to assemble the
adjustable elbows.
2.
Slide assembled elbow into upper platform handrail
and secure with self-tapping screw. Repeat process for
lower handrail as well.
3.
Slide another elbow (#3) into upper ramp handrail but
do not secure with screw yet. For lower handrail, you
will first need to install a handrail starter bracket before
sliding in the adjustable elbow (#4). The height of the
handrail starter bracket should be matched to that of
the other lower rails.
4.
With adjustable elbows in place, installer must measure and cut provided
tubing to fit tightly between the rails. Avoid leaning on either rail when
measuring the tubing. To scribe a line, slide provided piece of tubing onto
the upper elbow on the platform handrail. Position towards upper elbow
on ramp handrail. Mark the tubing where it will
need to be cut to fit properly. Repeat process
for lower handrail.
5.
Cut tubing to length. The inside and outside of
the tubing will need to be deburred before
installation.
6.
Install cut-to-size tubing onto both upper
adjustable elbows. Secure with 4 self-tapping
screws. Repeat process for lower tube as well.
