section, align the lower leafs of the appropriate graduated end hinges over the holes at the
top of the end caps located at the top of the section. Next, align the lower hinge leafs of the
#1 center hinges / half center hinges with the dimples at the center location(s) located at
the top of the section. Locate and center the strut onto the section surface and on top of the
hinges. Center the strut side to side on the section. Secure strut and hinges to section using

location(s), as shown.
NOTE: If your Intermediate Section has windows in it and a strut needs to be installed on that
section, strut clips will need to be used to attach it to the section.
