NSTALLATION
A.
Place the Gang Plank mounting face against the
Tower directly below the standard opening you
have chosen for it. The floor of the Gang Plank
should be aligned with the floor of the Tower. From
underneath the tower, insert 2 — 2¼” screws
through the floor frame and into the mounting face
of the Gang Plank. Follow this up by installing 2 —
3” lag bolts through the floor frame and into the
mounting face of the Gang Plank. Pre-drill a pilot
hole for each lag bolt with a 3/16” drill bit before
installing the lag bolts.
NOTE: It is permissible
for the lag bolts to be placed at left or right of
center if the corner brace of the tower interferes
with the installation. (

B.
Fasten four (4) eye screws to the uprights beside the standard opening. (The eye screws can
be found clipped in the snaps at the end of the ropes.) Measuring from the floor of the
Tower, make two marks on each upright. The lower mark should be at 13” and the upper
mark should be at 25” inches. Pre-drill a 5/32” hole at each mark and insert an eye screw
into each pilot hole.
C.
Clip each rope to the eye screws on
the Tower. If the ropes seem to be too
short, simply lift the bottom of the
Gang Plank until they reach. As you
lower the Gang Plank into place
again, the ropes will stretch. This pro-
vides the necessary tension for a taut
rope railing. If your ropes are not
tight enough, simply adjust the posi-
tion of the knots at the bottom of the
Gang Plank.
