Connect Two Platforms Together - EZ-ACCESS Modular Ramp Assembly Manual

2.3.

CONNECT TWO PLATFORMS TOGETHER:

2.3.1. Assemble the first platform as described in the previous steps except on the
side where the second platform will connect, install two MPPC (CONNECTOR
– PLATFORM TO PLATFORM) before installing feet onto the support tubes.
Make sure the platform connector set screws are oriented outward so they will
be accessible. NOTE: Any two platforms of the same width can be
connected. However, two 5' x 4' platforms are usually connected to make a
turn back platform.
2.3.2. Slide the platform connectors up until they contact the bottom of the platform
and tighten the set screws securely (FIG. 2.5).
2.3.3. Install a support tube stub into the open pocket in each connector until the
bottom of the stub is flush with the bottom of the connector and tighten the set
screws securely.
2.3.4. Install a plug in the top of each support tube stub.
2.3.5. Assemble the second platform as described in the previous section except
only install support tubes, plugs and feet on the opposite side of where the
platforms will connect (FIG. 2.6).
2.3.6. Lift the second platform and slide the open corner pockets over the support
tube stubs extending up from the platform connectors. Tighten the set screws
in the platform corner pockets securely.
2.3.7. Adjust the platform heights and level as needed. IMPORTANT: Make sure all
the set screws in both the platform corner pockets and the platform
connectors are tightened securely before proceeding with the installation.
