HOW TO INSTALL TREX ALUMINUM ADA COMPLIANT HANDRAIL/ CONTINUED
Handrail Return 180°
4. Determine angle required and tighten set screw on adjustable elbow. (It is recommended to do this before final attachment in order to access the set screw more easily.) 5. Slide other connector of adjustable elbow into the 180° handrail return or transition rail.
Elbows (90°, 36°, 34°, 31°, 5°)
NOTE: Ramp application shown here. (Appropriate angle elbow also required for stair applications.) 1. If required, cut railing to proper length based on location of elbow used as well and other components being used. 2. If desired, collar ring can be used to hide seam of handrail return to rail or elbow being used. Slide this over rail BEFORE inserting rail into other component. 3. Ensure that all components are aligned to both wall mount on post as well as location of elbow on rail BEFORE attachment. 4. Slide internal connector into appropriate elbow being until metal spacer screw is touching either end of elbow or the collar, if this was used. 5. Attach wall return to lower end of handrail return (longer side), ENSURING wall return is at proper angle of alignment to post. (Wall return is designed to have tight fit into rail, thus location of attachment is critical.) 6. Slide opposite end of handrail return onto internal connector, until it is touching metal spacer screw. 7. Remove metal spacer screw using #2 square-head screwdriver. 8. Push handrail return further over internal connector until it fits in the collar (if used) or fits tightly against elbow. 9. Attach wall return to post per previous instructions. 10. Attach rail to wall mount per previous instructions. 11. Use end caps where required.

Corner Mount
Adjustable Elbow
1. Pre-drill metal post and install corner post to metal post using specific hardware provided (see chart on previous page) . 2. If desired, collar ring can be used to hide seam of elbow to rail. Slide this over rail BEFORE inserting rail into elbow. 3. Slide internal connector into rail end until metal spacer screw is touching either end of rail or the collar, if this was used. 4. Slide appropriate angled elbow onto opposite end of internal connector, until this is touching metal spacer screw. 5. Remove metal spacer screw using #2 square-head screwdriver. 6. Push elbow further over internal connector until this fits in the collar (if used) or fits tightly against rail. 7. Install elbow to corner mount using specific hardware provided.
NOTE: This elbow is designed to take the guesswork out of which elbow to buy based on stair angle.
