Fitting the rail
1. Determine whether the stairway elevator will be installed on the right or left side of the stairs, as viewed from the bottom of the stairs.
NOTE: Unless otherwise specified, Bruno Stairway Elevators are shipped from the
If you wish to convert to right-side
installation, please refer to the instructions appearing later in this manual.
2. Determine the exact rail length by placing a tape measure in a straight line on the stairs (see STEP 2 in the APPLICATION GUIDE). To this number, add Measurement B (see STEP 4 in the APPLICATION GUIDE).
NOTE: If the unit is equipped with an overspeed brake, add 5 to the rail length.
This calculation will allow you to precisely fit the Stairway Elevator to your customer by determining the most comfortable seat-to-floor height within the space available at the top of the stairs.
3. Mark the length on the rail, as determined in the previous step.
NOTE: Be sure that excess length is cut off of the LOWER end of the rail.
4. After marking, and BEFORE cutting the rail, cut the cable channel back approx. 3 inches from the mark to avoid having to cut through the channel.

INSTALLATION
Cutting the rail and installing the lower bumper
IMPORTANT NOTE!
Under no circumstances should a rail section be cut shorter than
18 in. (46 cm).
There must be at least (2) clamps on a short rail section (1 at the rail
joint and 1 at the rail end). Cutting a rail shorter than 18 in. (46 cm)
would not allow enough room for the (2) necessary clamps.
Example:
After measuring the staircase, you determine you need 9 feet of rail. With your (2) 8-foot sections you decide to use (1) 8-foot section and cut the remaining (1) foot from the second 8-foot section. Doing this
could yield a rail piece with insufficient weld.
Instead, Bruno recommends cutting at least one foot off one of the 8-
foot sections (leaving 7 feet of rail) and then cutting 2 feet from the
second 8-foot section. You will have a (1) 7-foot section and (1) 2-foot
section, both of which are long enough to be properly mounted (2
clamps minimum per short rail).
NEVER CUT OFF THE JOINT END!
The M6 bolts securing the gear rack must remain intact.
Cut off the end with the pre-drilled charge contact mounting holes.
Then, using the provided template, redrill (2) holes on each end of the rail.

INSTALLATION
Cutting the rail and installing the lower bumper (cont.)
1. BE SURE TO WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES AND EYEWEAR. During the cutting process, sparks will fly and the metal rail will become very hot.
2. Place flat side of the rail on the saw bed. Carefully align the saw to the line marking the desired finished length of the rail.
flat side of rail to saw bed align saw with mark up and down motion
3. For a precise and efficient cut, Bruno recommends the use of a chop saw*. A down-up motion during the cutting process helps avoid overheating the saw motor.
*This chop saw (or other power saw) must be equipped with metal-cutting
blade suitable for aluminum and steel.
4. Once the rail is cut, deburr the cut end using a file or other appropriate tool. Soften any sharp edges which might abrade the insulation of the wiring routed to the bumper at the rail end.
5. Place the metal template (provided - see Box B of Carton 2) on rail as shown. Hold in place. Using a 1/8 in. bit, drill two pilot holes. Switch to a 5/16 in. bit and re-drill the (2) holes.

two at the bottom
two in the middle (one on each side of rail joint)
two at the top*
top landing first tread down from top landing* (NO CLAMP ON TOP STEP/LANDING FOR UNIT WITH STANDARD EXTENSION) closest tread above and below rail joint(s), then minimum of every third tread over the remainder of the staircase.
2. Mount the bottom rail section in between the clamp
halves. Tighten the hardware enough to render the rail immobile. Do not fully tighten at this time.
3. Once the bottom rail section is mounted in the clamp assemblies, rest the bottom of the rail against the step noses at a distance from the wall of approx. 6 in.
B LOCK CLAMP.
NOTE: Insert the hardware so that the nut is closest to the wall.
*A minimum of (1) clamp must be installed beneath the
B LOCK CLAMP (secured to the floor or step).
After the rail is installed, drill through rail (using holes in
top of B clamp as guides) with a 1/4 in. bit.
Install M6 hardware, with nut on wall side of rail
(see exploded view at rear of manual).

loosen x 5
This makes it easier to align the screws and the holes on the mating rail section.
6. Gently slide the upper rail section up or down the stairs until it mates with the lower section so that the mating ends fit flush.
7. From the kit provided, insert the (2) M6x1x45 mm Allen head and the (3) M8x1.25x16 mm hex head screws into the appropriate holes in the joint plate. DO NOT TIGHTEN.
If the M6 Allen head screws do not line up with the gear rack threads,
loosen all of the M5 set screws (two turns only)
to allow the gear rack to slide just slightly in the rail,
and permit alignment of the M6 screws and the gear rack threads.
8. Before tightening the hardware: check that the screw and rail/gear rack threads are properly engaged; make sure the rail sections are flush.
It may be helpful to apply a
small amount of silver anti-seize
material to the hardware threads
before inserting.
9. Order of tightening hardware is important! FIRST tighten the (4) M6 Allen head screws engaging the gear rack. Then tighten the (6) M6 hex head screws.

10. Slide the top and bottom clamps up or down on the rail until they are firmly seated on the step.
IMPORTANT NOTES
The rail must rest approximately 1-1/4 inches above the step nose of EVERY
step, and extend from the floor at the bottom of the stairs to a point beyond
the nose of the top step (see Application Guide Step 4).
It may be necessary to pound a scratch awl in one of the rear clamp mounting
holes to prevent the rail from sliding.

STEP NOSE TO BOTTOM OF RAIL = 1-1/4 IN.
Stair profiles do vary, so it is critical to ensure proper clearance between the step nose and the bottom of the rail.
Failure to install the rail at the specified 1-1/4 in. distance from the step nose will cause the footrest to contact to steps, thus provoking intermittent operation of the stairway elevator. If necessary, gently slide rail and clamps toward or away from the stair riser to adjust the clearance to the 1-1/4 in. recommanded distance.

As you tighten the
clamps around the rail
sections, regularly check
that the rail is vertical
or leaning backwards.
Rail section MUST be at a 90-degree angle to the stairs, OR leaning BACK slightly. The rail section must NEVER lean forward.
11. Tighten the clamp hardware enough to render the upper rail immobile. Do not fully tighten at this time.
12. Once the rail sections are installed, tighten the clamps. BEFORE mounting the carriage, check the straightness of the rail over all of the stairs by using a level, or a plomb line along the rail. If the rail bows or leans forward, insert shims or readjust the clamps.
13. Secure 2 or 3 of the rail clamps to the stairs. Secure the back half of the clamps first. The rail should be located 2-5/8 in. from the closest obstruction and the back of
the rail.

Routing the cable
Once the clamps are in place, and secure, and after verifying that the rail bottom is at least 1-1/4 in. from the bottom of the rail, and that the rail is straight, insert the power cable into the channel that runs along the back of the rail (side closest to the wall). Determine the location of the wall outlet. Start inserting the cable (i.e., pigtail of the charge harness) at the end (top or bottom) closest to that outlet. Be sure to position the battery charger at this end. When routing the cable around the joint plate, make sure that the cable rests snugly flat against the rail.
