Removing or adding sections:
Note: Always begin separating gate from either end. At the juncture of every section is a removable, vertical bar.
To remove vertical bar, lift up on bar (5), while sliding it out of lower hinge groove (6a.). Pull bar down and out of cone (6.).
Lift off end section. If gate is now appropriate length, go to step 8.
If additional section/s are required, go to steps 11 & 12.
Depending on number of sections removed, you will end up with one of two configurati- ons at the end of gate (diagram 8 or 9).
Remove hinge cap (H) from bottom of original end section. A screwdriver may be used to help pry it off. Place cap over top hinge on what is now the end piece.
Place spare hinge cover (G) over bottom hinge. Go to step 10.
