Bin Stairs and Platform Assembly

The handrail post (LDR-4085) connects
to the end of the horizontal wall bracket
with (2) 3/8” x 1” Flange head bolts and
nuts. Tighten the bolts and move on to the
next section. The handrail will be installed
after all stair sections are on the tank. (See
figure 10 on page 7 for a detailed drawing
of the first few steps and the hand railing.)

Use platform splice (TDP-5010) to cover
the gap between the platform and the stair
section. Since the gap changes with bin
diameter, field drilling and cutting are re-
quired for proper placement of the splice.
The attachment tabs on the top of the step
may need to be trimmed to allow fit (refer
to figure 9 on page 7). The splice will also
need to be notched to fit around the hand-
rail post. Secure to the step and platform
with truss head bolts and nuts.
