12. Attach catwalk planks (with kick plates attached) to catwalk transitions.
13. There are two (2) planks between catwalk brace. The longer plank with the kick plate goes farther
away from the dryer wall with the kick plate on the outside and the shorter plank goes closest to the
dryer wall with the kick plate to the inside (to prevent stepping or slipping between the plank and the
dryer).
(See Figure 8Y.)
Use nuts and bolts to connect catwalk planks to catwalk transitions.
Note in Figure 8Y only the inside plank has been places. It is located closer to the dyer wall. The
longer plank further from the dryer wall has not yet been placed and connected.
NOTE: Left nut is the middle hole mentioned in previous steps that had to be oriented away from
dryer wall. This is required so that the catwalk floor planks fit correctly. (See Figure 8Y.)
NOTE: Left nut shown in Figure 8Y is NOT in the correct slot.
