Once the two (2) 3/8" holes have been field drilled, attach the starter brackets to the sidewall as shown in
Figure 8C . Check the top ladder section to make sure the ladder rung dimples are to the top. Attach starter
brackets to the top of the ladder. See general detail information on Page 12 for the proper installation
of additional ladder sections required. Standoff brackets must be installed on the ladder sections and
attached to the sidewall at each horizontal seam and repeated every 44". Use 5/16" x 3/4" bin bolts for all
connections. It is also necessary to field drill a 3/8" hole on the ladder section for each starter bracket
(L.H. and R.H.).
NOTE: Refer to general detail information on Page 12 for additional details for standoff bracket to ladder
assembly and also, 8' extension rail installation (omitted in detail for clarity).
