Platform Clamps

This assembly is designed to be located at any elevation on trunking that’s needed to provide
access to other equipment. Determine elevation of platform surface and work from there. Locate
all parts required for assembly by using the charts shown in the following figures.

Locate all parts to assemble clamps onto the trunking. Measure the distance between the
clamps to assure proper location for support channels and knee brace attachment. Attach a
clamp half and support clip on one end of the support channel using 1/2" hardware. Next attach
the clamp rod weldment onto the clamp half using 1/2" nuts. Next place this assembly around
trunk and attach other clamp half and support clip using 1/2" hardware.

Note: When tightening clamps onto trunking, do not overtighten and collapse the

trunking.
