Vertical Supports
After all three (3) hoop assemblies are in place, you may now attach the 48" vertical supports from hoop
assembly to hoop assembly as shown in
Figure 6R . This will require ten (10) supports, five (5) between
each set of hoops. The 2
nd
set of vertical supports will need to be bent at the flat area to allow for the
tapering of the bottom hoop assembly. Use 5/16" x 3/4" bolts (unless otherwise noted) with the head of
the bolt to the inside of the safety cage.

Safety Cage
Attach the vertical support pieces to the existing hoop halves above using the 5/16" x 3/4" bolt and nuts
(with the heads on the inside of the cage). Fasten two (2) hoop halves together and bolt to other end of
vertical supports. Attach cage hoop brackets to ladder as shown in
Figure 6S below. Once cage hoop
brackets have been installed, attach cage hoop halves and tighten bolts. Repeat installation for each safety
cage required.
