Unpack all of the track/components and ensure that all of the items are
included as per the delivery note.

Using the dimension on the drawing or the agreed track position, mark the position of the wall shoes on the wall. All dimensions are to the centre of the track.

The HTM66 recommended fitting height is 2100mm from the floor to
the underside of the track.

• Lift the first section of track up into wall shoes.
• Support the track at the bend with a suitable temporary support ensuring
  that the track is level.
• Using the screws provided, secure the track to the wall shoe. See figure below:

Joining Cubicle Railing together

Depending on layout of the track – join each section together with the
overlaps (see figure below), taking care that all fixings holes are used and
that the screws tightened securely for maximum stability.

Suspension Hangers for Cubicle Rail

For suspension rods refer to figure below. Each bend must be supported by a 313 hanger (see figure below) assembly no further than 350mm from either leg of the bend.

At no point should the track span more than 3000mm without support.
If the track has a join, ensure the track is suspended within 150mm from
the join. If the track has no lateral support and spans more than 3000mm
please ensure a V-Hanger is used. Using a plumb line, mark where hanger
assembly will fix to ceiling and track. Refer to Figures below.

For V- suspension refer to figure above (right). When assembling the 313
hanger, ensure that the K113 V-hanger is located on the suspension tube and
is resting on the lower 113 hanger which is fixed to the track.

Once installation is complete, ensure that the gliders run smoothly across
any joins and adjust any misalignments accordingly. The track can be
‘tweaked’ with a large flat headed screwdriver to correct any misalignment
on joins if required.
NB. Further information can be found in the full ‘Technical Book’. Please
request a copy if required.
