ladder installation
Preread the entire ladders section (pages
60 - 63) before installing the ladders. Refer
to the ladders, safety cages and platforms
manual for specific assembly instructions.
Attach the ladder to the bin sidewall while
building the bin from top to bottom (fig.s
a - g). The first ladder bracket should be
located about 8” below the eave (fig. e).
Field drill this connection. Thereafter
brackets are designed to be located at every
horizontal seam. Be sure that all the
brackets and splices are properly spaced
and securely tighten all bolts. Use bin bolts
and nuts for the assembly. Fasten the safety
cage to the ladder using the clip and bolt
assemblies provided.
