10.
Place the top beam into position and
align the top of the baluster plugs with
the routed slots and snap into place
(Fig. 19). For round balusters, ensure the
baluster shoes (sold separately) are on
both ends of the balusters to properly
lock balusters in place in the rail section.
If necessary, align plugs and tap down
with a rubber mallet to lock into place.
11.
Secure the upper bracket & beam to
the post using 6 mounting screws (G),
3 per bracket (Fig. 19). Begin with the
bottom center screw as shown to avoid
misalignment.
Apply downward pressure to the top
of the beam over top of the  rst two
balusters adjacent to the bracket while
securing bottom center screw. This will
seat the balusters against the beam and
bottom rail.
12.
Measure ¾" from end of bracket and
½" inward from each side of the beam.
Pre-drill upward and slightly outward
(approximately 5°) using a 1/8" drill bit
(Fig. 20, 21). Be sure to drill through the
beam and bracket, top rail, and stiffener
(if applicable). Repeat for other end of
rail.
