PNEG-1451 Ladder, Safety Cage and Platform for Hopper Tanks
Base Starter Bracket and Ladder Assembly with Safety Cage
Once the two (2) 3/8" holes have been field drilled, attach the starter brackets to the sidewall as shown in
. Check the top ladder section to make sure the ladder rung dimples are to the top. Attach to the
starter brackets using the holes located 1" from the top of the ladder. It will also be necessary to field drill
a 3/8" hole in the ladder section. Drill this hole 2" below the pre-drilled hole 1" from the top of the ladder.
See general detail information
for proper installation of additional ladder
sections required. Now, standoff brackets must be installed on the ladder sections and attached to the
sidewall at each horizontal seam and repeated every 32" until reaching the bottom of the tank. Use
5/16" x 3/4" bin bolts for all connections.
NOTE:
for safety cage hoop assembly,
for platform assembly and
vertical support installation. DO NOT install any safety cages or safety cage bells at this time. The
access door platform assembly must be installed first.
