Code Compliant Modular Access System Installation Manual
6.4.2.1. The lower handrail must be trimmed by 3/4” before installing either the
upper or lower end loop to accommodate a 2-15/16” ring joiner.
Only trim the lower handrail if a loop will be installed. Do not trim if the
lower handrail will be connected to another handrail in a ramp run. Do
not trim the upper handrail.
6.4.2.2. Using a metal file, remove any sharp edges from cutting.
6.4.2.3. Install a 2-15/16” ring joiner in the trimmed end of the lower 1-1/2” diameter
ramp handrail. Orient the set screw in the ring joiner toward the underside of
the handrail (FIG. 6.10).
6.4.2.4. Insert the swaged end of the loop as far as it will go into the upper handrail
and position so it is adjacent to the ring joiner. Mark the lower leg of the
end loop at the ring of the ring joiner and trim the lower leg at the marked
location. Remove the end loop to achieve a square cut (FIG. 6.10).
6.4.2.5. Using a metal file, remove any sharp edges from cutting.
6.4.2.6. Reinstall the end loop in the upper handrail and over the joiner in the
lower handrail then tighten the joiner set screws securely.
6.4.2.7. Drill pilot holes and install two 1/4” x 1” long self-drilling, self-tapping
pan head Phillips screws in the upper handrail in the same manner
described in step 6.3.2.5.
