Assembling the Height Rod
The height rod must be attached to the Rice Lake 260-10-1 Digital Handrail Scale handrail center post using the
following steps.
1. Place the bracket insert into the bracket. The bracket insert is slightly more flared on one side and this must
be placed toward the height rod. If the bracket insert is placed incorrectly, there will be a gap between the
bracket insert and the outside edge of the bracket. When placed correctly, the outside edges of the bracket
and the bracket insert will fit snugly and be flush.
Gap
2. Insert the screw knobs through the holes in the bracket and the
bracket insert.
3. Working from the back of the scale, hold the height rod and hold the
bracket insert and screw knobs in place. While facing the handrail
center post, tilt the top edge of the height rod down and insert it
between the handrail and the left side of the handrail center post. Tilt
the top edge of the height rod up until the rod is vertical.
4. Position the bracket and the screw knobs to line up with the holes in
the back of the handrail center post.
5. Tighten the screw knobs until the bracket is rigid and does not move.
