8. Once location/height is determined, center and predrill two holes (using a drill bit slightly smaller than that of self-tapping screw diameter) on opposite sides of post, approximately. 1/4" (0.6 cm) from top of post. Drill through the post and into the stair crossover swivel bracket on each side. NOTE: Slightly countersink pre-drilled holes to allow for flat head screws to seat flush on the post. This will allow cover to fit over screw heads.

10. Top stair rail must be cut differently on each side of the rail. Railing side that attaches to standard post should be cut 1/4" (0.6 cm) shorter than the mark to allow for fit into top rail bracket. Railing side that attaches to the crossover post should be cut directly on the mark to allow for fit into the crossover post bracket. NOTE: Railing does not need to be cut at angle. Brackets are designed to allow for railing to be installed with standard straight cut.
