Step 9
Refer to fig. 5 for splicing of retainer as required on longer handrail lengths. Locate
splice joints a minimum of 4 inches from bracket locations to allow for clearance of splice
hardware. For best results offset butt joints in cover from splice in retainer. Match drill
splice plate and retainer as shown and secure with 1/4 inch - 20 fasteners provided.

Measure between accessories (corners and returns) and cut vinyl cover. The cover is not
supplied with square cut ends. All ends must be cut square by installer. Cut cover so that it
will span retainer butt joints. All cuts must be square and deburred.
Step 11
Snap on vinyl cover. Install cover to span butt joints in retainer.
