|
| only, do not force the connector into the receptacle. To secure the connection, press the |
|
| flanges together so that they clip onto the connector tabs. See Diagram 4. |
| 8. | Use the tie wrap provided to secure the lower portion of the ribbon cable to the plastic |
|
| reinforcement strip. Thread the tie wrap through the holes in the plastic reinforcement strip |
|
| and around the ribbon cable. See inset in Diagram 4. Pull the end of the tie wrap tightly to |
|
| secure the cable. |

|
| also remove the string from the ribbon cable. |

Important: While your assistant(s) holds the handrails, guide the ribbon cable into the base support. If you feel any resistance, do not force the handrails into position, slowly remove the handrails from the base supports and start over again.
10.Notice that the two bolt hole locations on each base support provide for height adjustments. Determine which height is best suited to meet your needs before securing the handrails to the base handrail supports. See Diagram 5.
11.After adjusting the handrails to the height that suits you, alternately tighten each bolt using the Allen wrench provided.
