Make sure that the
DRIVE TOOL/DRILL
is configured or set
to use the SCREW
setting when
driving and/or

Cutting the handrail
slightly longer than

provide a tighter fit
and more accurate
appearance.

WARNING:
Be sure to check local
code requirements for
proper bottom rail
location and top rail
height and be sure that
you have the proper
height balusters to meet
those requirements.
For best results, use
a center support block
on stair section 4ft in
length or longer.
Do not over-torque
screws when fastening
balusters.
Important:
Be sure to only drill through Post Sleeve.
Be careful not to mar Balusters with Drill
Chuck. Drill holes for brackets
at the same angle that
screws will be installed.
