5. To cut the rail, use a standard chop saw with a
12" blade designed to cut aluminum.
NOTE: Do not cut rail inside the house (aluminum chips
are very difficult to remove from carpets).
Do not cut the end of the rail that contains the joint
holes. Remove the charger strips and wire harness
before cutting.
Harmar offers a rail jig that allows holes to be drilled
in the end of a rail.

REQUIREMENTS
The lift must be connected to a dedicated 120V AC

RAIL INSTALLATION
1. Open the rail box and remove its contents.
2. Position the bottom rail (the rail with the end
plate attached) directly on the stairs with the
end plate towards the bottom of the stairs
and the plastic rack facing up. Place and object
that measures 1/2" between end plate and the
floor.
See Figure 4-4.
Figure 4-4
NOTE: Use the chair box, or another heavy object, like a
toolbox, at the bottom of the rail to prevent it from sliding
down the stairs.
3. Install two (2) splice bars into the end of
the track containing the splice pins. They
will each be secured by the "joint fasteners"
(5/16" flathead screws) the wire jacket and
conductors.
4. Position the two ends of the rail close
together. Locate and connect the plug on the
ends of the two power harnesses inside the
two rail pieces.
See Figure 4-5.

5. With the plastic rack facing up, slide the top
into the bottom rail and guide them together
using the pre-installed pins. Gently tap on the
top rail if necessary to get them close
together. Be careful not to pinch the power
harness.
See Figure 4-6.
