INSTALLATION GUIDE
(continued)
Remove end spacers, mid-spacers, and adjustable stair knuckles from rails. Cut top and bottom rails to length.
Insert adjustable stair knuckles into baluster ends. Ensure knuckles are facing opposite directions (see Step 4 illustration). Slide a baluster (with knuckles) into bottom rail. NOTE: Lay rail on a at, non- abrasive surface or have a helper assist with keeping components in place. Slide a mid-spacer into bottom rail. Repeat the process until the bottom rail is full of balusters and mid-spacers. NOTE: Ensure baluster knuckles are facing the same direction.
Slide balusters and mid-spacers ush to one end of rail. Measure open space on
opposite end. Divide this distance in half to allow for equal spacing.
NOTE: At rail ends, the TOTAL space should be no greater than 8" and no less than 4", with equal and maximum spacing on both ends.
Mid-spacers may need to be uniformly cut to adjust spacing.
Equally cut both end spacers to t.
Center balusters and mid-spacers on rail. Install end spacers on rail ends, screws oriented on the rail ends.
