PNEG-1451 Ladder, Safety Cage and Platform for Hopper Tanks

Base Starter Bracket and Ladder Assembly with Safety Cage

Once the two (2) 3/8" holes have been field drilled, attach the starter brackets to the sidewall as shown in

Figure 6Y

. Check the top ladder section to make sure the ladder rung dimples are to the top. Attach to the

starter brackets using the holes located 1" from the top of the ladder. It will also be necessary to field drill
a 3/8" hole in the ladder section. Drill this hole 2" below the pre-drilled hole 1" from the top of the ladder.

(See Figure 6Y.)

See general detail information

on Page 12

for proper installation of additional ladder

sections required. Now, standoff brackets must be installed on the ladder sections and attached to the
sidewall at each horizontal seam and repeated every 32" until reaching the bottom of the tank. Use
5/16" x 3/4" bin bolts for all connections.
