attach the roof steps
The roof steps should be installed as the
sheets are being added when the desired
location is reached (fig. b). See the roof step
table on page 43. Normally, the manway
roof sheet would be to the right of the roof
steps (fig. g page
39). However, the
manhole cover, hinges, and latches can
be assembled to open either right or left,
allowing the manhole to be on the left of
the steps if desired. A manway I.D.
drawing is located on page 44.

install the reinforcing ring
See figures a and b. The 5th and 6th roof
rib holes (3” apart) from bottom of roof
sheets are for the clamps (P/N 011476).
Add one (1) pipe segment (P/N 011437)
and clamp loosely. Place the pipe so that
the joints will be centered between two
(2) ribs. Add two (2) sleeves (PN 011477)
and one (1) threaded rod (PN 011475) at
each joint as shown. Repeat the step until
the ring is complete. Install the security
chain at all joints as shown in Fig. a.
Adjust the ring while all clamps are on
but still loose until the roof is straight or
slightly convex, then tighten all clamps.
