Inside Ladder Placement
The inside ladder package includes the ladder, starter brackets, standoff brackets, reinforcement straps
and ending bracket. Begin by positioning the ladder directly under the manway roof panel and install the
starter bracket as shown
in Figure 10O . Place the standoff brackets every horizontal seam or 32" vertically
on the sidewall sheets. A strap is then used from one standoff bracket to the next. Use 5/16" bin bolts to
attach the standoff brackets to the sidewall.

The inside ladder package for 135' diameter commercial bins include a strap (LDR-5132) that runs
from one standoff bracket (LDR-4314) to the next. Begin assembling the straps in the second ring of
the sidewall.
Refer to diagram and follow the correct dimensions as shown in Figure 10P on Page 79 . The ladder starter
brackets must be located in line with the horizontal seam. Check the 4' ladder section to make sure the
ladder rung dimples are to the top surface and attach to the starter brackets using the hole located 1"
from the top of the ladder.
