Installation Instructions

  2. Position bracket at desired orientation and use selected screw/bolt to mount and secure the bracket to the mounting surface

Note: If using a round handrail, position the round saddle adapter on top of the flat saddle before attaching handrails.

    NOTE: If the bracket doesn’t align properly you can pound it out using a 1” rod from the bottom of the post. Be careful not to hit any of the tube threading while inserting the rod. Do this over a piece of cloth so that they bracket does not get scratched when it is pounded out.
