Once the two (2) 3/8" holes have been field drilled, attach the starter brackets to the sidewall as shown in
Figure 6D . Check the top ladder section to make sure the ladder rung dimples are to the top. Attach starter
brackets to the top of the ladder. It will be necessary to field drill a 3/8" hole in the ladder section for the
starter bracket as well.
(See Figure 6F on Page 44.) See Figure 4B on Page 13 for the proper installation
of additional ladder sections required. Standoff brackets must be installed on the ladder sections and
attached to the sidewall at each horizontal seam and repeated every 32". Use 5/16" x 3/4" bin bolts for
all connections.
