allation 2. Using a good quality level, lightly score a level pencil line on the headerboard where the bracket screw will be fastened into. 3. To splice rails together using the E-Glide splice kit (EG.41) complete the following steps: • Slide the splice half-way into one of the rails and tighten down the 2 set screws (figure 3, image 1) • Slide the other rail over the splice and tighten those set screws (figure 3, image 2) Figure 3 2 1 Installation 2 2mm 2 1 4.
Step 2: Ladder Assembly (if applicable) If the ladder is Unfinished: It is recommended that the ladder side rails and steps are sanded slightly with a 220-grit sandpaper just prior to applying the finish (stain, paint, clear coat sealer, etc.). We recommend finishing the ladder before assembly. Before applying the finish, protect the insides of the dados and the ends of the steps with a quality painter’s tape.
. Using the supplied 1 1/4” washer-head screws, secure the step to the side rail through the predrilled holes on the side rails (for aesthetic purposes, don’t over tighten the screws which can crack the wood around the screw head). Assemble the remaining steps in the same manner (figure 9). 6. Once all the steps are assembled onto one of the side rails, position the side rail on its side with the steps pointing up. Figure 9 7.
Step 3 Ladder Hardware Installation Top Ladder Hardware 1. On the outside of each ladder side rail, measure down 2” from the top of the ladder and draw a 11/2” line from the back edge of the side rail (figure 14 - see the next page for complete measurements). 2. Align the top edge of the Upper Hook Assembly with the line. Clamp or hold the hardware in place to drill the through holes in the side rail (figure 15). Figure 14 3.

Bottom Ladder Hardware 1. Mark a line on the bottom of each side rail 11/2” in from the front edge (figure 16). 2. Line up the Bottom Wheel Housing to the line drawn on the bottom of the side rail of the ladder using the “U” bracket portion of the housing. Verify that the bracket is flush with the bottom of the ladder. Because of the 12-degree angle of the bottom of the ladder this will align the housing diagonally across the ladder side rail (figure 17). Figure 16 Figure 17 1 1/2” 1 1/2” 3.
