3.5. INSTALL A SINGLE RAMP RUN TO AN EXISTING STRUCTURE:
3.5.1. Turn the ramp section upside down on a flat surface. Do this on cardboard or
a lawn so that the ramp is not damaged (scratched or dented).
3.5.2. Locate MRHBPR (RAMP HANDRAIL END BRACKET PAIR). Install four end
brackets (will be used to attach handrails in a later step). Use one end bracket
at each outside corner of the ramp section using one 5/16
″ x 1-1/2″ bolt and
washer into the threaded insert second from the end of the ramp (FIG. 3.15).
FIG. 3.15
3.5.3. Turn the ramp over to the upright position.
3.5.4. Place the upper end of the ramp onto the supporting surface, i.e., platform,
porch, etc. Once the ramp is resting on the porch or platform, lift the upper
end of the ramp and install the MRUT (RAMP UPPER TRANSITION) into
what will be the upper end of the ramp (FIG. 3.16) and the MRGT (RAMP
GROUND TRANSITION) into what will be the lower end of the ramp. If the
lower end of the ramp is not resting on the ground, use either an upper
transition or lower transition with an MRST (RAMP SUPPORT TOP) as
appropriate for the location.
3.5.5. Maneuver the ramp to its desired position (FIG. 3.17).
