breathable material when provided must be positioned at top of skirt with mounting collar.


2. Slip skirt over end of platform. Turn skirt as required to slide over other end of platform and leg

assembly. The skirt should be in position under platform while enveloping base assembly.


3. Select from the following mounting configurations.

Mounting Accordion Skirt On Platform Side

Raise one side of skirt along with a skirt-mounting bar (1/8”
x 1”) to (1) side of platform. When possible, center skirt-
mounting collar and skirt-mounting bar (1/8” x 1”) on
platform side.

Align pre-drilled holes in side of platform with skirt-mounting
bar holes and punch holes in skirt-mounting collar.

Push a nylon drive rivet through each hole in skirt-mounting
bar. Hammer aluminum pin into rivet until flush with rivet
head. Repeat mounting process for remaining sides of
