3.2.

INSTALL RAMPS ON PLATFORMS:

3.2.1.

The following will address attaching a ramp or ramp run to a platform. If the
ramp needs to be angled with respect to the platform or is going to be
attached to an existing porch, skip to

‘ANGLING RAMPS WITH RESPECT

TO PLATFORMS

’.

3.2.2.

Locate MRHP (RAMP HANGER PAIR). Install two hangers onto the side of
the platform where the ramp will be attached.

3.2.3.

Hold the hanger perpendicular (approximately) to the platform side rail then
bring the hanger upward until it is against the side rail lip. Rotate the hanger
and continue pushing upward in such a manner that the “hook″ at the top of
the hanger goes behind and catches on the lip in the top of the platform side
rail and the hanger sits on the ledge at the bottom (FIG. 3.3).

3.2.4.

Set the ramp on the hangers. The hangers should be positioned as close as
possible to the ramp side rails. The procedure is the same at both the top and
bottom of ramp runs which end at a platform unless a transition plate is used
(FIG. 3.4).

WARNING: Do not attempt to walk on ramps until installation is

complete.
