INSTALLATION
1. BE SURE TO WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES
AND EYEWEAR.
During the cutting process, sparks will y and
the metal rail will become very hot.
2. Place at side of the rail on the saw bed. Care-
fully align the saw to the line marking the de-
sired nished length of the rail.
3. For a precise and efcient cut, Bruno recom-
mends the use of a chop saw*.
A down-up motion during the cutting process
helps avoid overheating the saw motor.
*NOTE: The chop saw (or other power
saw) must be equipped with
metal-cutting blade suitable for
aluminum and steel.
4. Once the rail is cut, deburr the cut end using a
le or other appropriate tool. Soften any sharp
edges which might abrade the insulation of the
wiring routed to the bumper at the rail end.
5. Place the metal template (provided) on rail as
shown. Hold in place. Using a 1/8 in. bit, drill
two pilot holes. Switch to a 5/16 in. bit and re-
drill the (2) holes.
6. Install the lower bumper assembly and end cap
using the hardware provided.
You may wish to place a piece of cardboard or
a non-skid rug under the end of the bottom rail
to protect the oor and to keep the rail section
from sliding off the stairs.
