2.2. INSTALL SUPPORT TUBES AND FEET, THEN ADJUST PLATFORM HEIGHT
2.2.1. Support tubes, plugs, and feet come in pairs. Support tubes will come in lengths sufficient
for the heights at specific locations.
2.2.2. Loosen all set screws in the platform corner pockets.

The set screws on the outside of the platform are for the platform support tubes.

The set screws on the inside of the platform (one above the deck and one below
the deck) are for the handrail posts.
2.2.3. Tip the platform on its side, then slide the support tubes into the four platform corner
pockets. Adjust the support tubes to the approximate platform height needed (FIG.2.5).
FIG. 2.5
2.2.4. Use supplied 3/16″ Allen wrench to tighten the upper of the two set screws in the corner
pocket, just enough to hold the support tube in place but do not over tighten (the second
set screw will be tightened after final height adjustments are complete).
Platforms configured as a turn back platform (FIG. 2.3) will have six tubes to adjust.
Do not attempt to walk on the platform until all support tube set screws have been
tightened securely.
2.2.5. Place the platform (with support tubes attached) into the upright position.
Do not let the weight of the platform bear on the support tubes while tipping the
platform upright.
2.2.6. Lift each corner of the platform and install a base foot on each support tube oriented so
that the foot extends under the platform (FIG. 2.5).
The feet can be oriented in other directions if necessary due to site conditions but
may present a tripping hazard if not oriented under the platform.
