STEP 25 — Access Ladder Rungs & Slat:
Fit ve 15" Rungs (AE) into the holes in the Left Ladder Rail
(V) and the Right Ladder Rail (W). Set the assembly at on
a solid surface. Make sure that the rungs are completely
inserted with the ends of the rungs snug against the bottom
of the holes.
Use #10 x 1-1/2" Self-Drilling Screws, through the holes
provided, to fasten the rungs in place. (The Self-Drilling
Screws have a drill-bit tip. Point the screw toward the center
of rung diameter and press rmly. Do not sink the head of the
screw beyond ush with the surface of the wood.
Use four #10 x 1-5/8" Screws to fasten the Ladder Slat (AB)
to the Ladder Rails. The top edge of the Ladder Slat should
be about 2-1/4" below the top of the Ladder Rails as shown.
Make sure the gap between the top Rung and the Ladder
slat is less than 3-1/2"; adjust if necessary. Drill 1/8" diam-
eter pilot holes 1" deep for each #10 x 1-5/8" Screw.
