Unpack each element before starting to assemble the staircase. Arrange them on a large surface and check the
number of parts against the attached parts list.
The staircase is supplied with one ascending direction (clockwise or anticlockwise, defined during design of the ideal
configuration, which determines the helical shape (clockwise or anticlockwise) of the handrail sections of the railing.
Therefore, it is unadvisable to invert the ascending direction so as not to compromise proper fitting. To understand
with which ascending direction the staircase has been supplied, read the description
of code 140051.
Preliminary assembly
1. Assemble the parts 001010 on the treads 103008 (Fig. 1).
2. C arefully measure the height from floor to floor to determine the number of plastic spacers 131030 or 131031.
To determine the number of plastic spacers 131030 or 131031 required, refer to Table 2 (H = height, A = rise).
Example: for a measured height of 298 cm from floor to floor and a staircase with 13 treads:
a) read the number of plastic spacers required in column H in correspondence to the height of 298 cm, i.e. 40
plastic spacers in the column A/13.
b) one at a time distribute the plastic spacers in sequence on all the spacers 130210 or 130211 (above and
below) until they have all been used up (keep the alignment with the point of injection on the visible edge to
improve aesthetics). Up to a maximum of 3 plastic spacers can be fitted on the 1
Up to a maximum of 5 plastic spacers can be fitted on the remaining spacers 130210 or 130211.
c) the final result is 3 plastic spacers on the 1st spacer 130210 or 130211 (2 above and 1 below), 4 plastic
spacers on the 2nd spacer 130210 or 130211 (2 above and 2 below), 3 plastic spacers on the eleven
remaining spacers ( 2 above and 1 below).
3. D etermine the number of end, intermediate and joining balusters (Fig. 1) (Fig. 7).
Warning: take into account that the length of the rods provided cover the railing over a maximum of three treads.
Consequently, you need to fit one joining baluster (z) every three treads.
a) end baluster assembly (x): fit the part 011071 in the hole of the baluster 127031 or 127035 on the
countersink side. From the other side fit the part 033159 and then the part 031096 and screw on.
Assemble the part 001019 in the part 033158, screw on and fit them to the balusters 127031 or 127035 with
the hole on the countersink side and finally tighten them.
Fit the part 033078 in the part 033158. Screw on with the part 011072.
b) intermediate baluster assembly (y): screw the part 001011 into the part 034040 without tightening. Fit the
part 011070 in the hole of the baluster 127031 or 127035 from the countersink side and screw it onto the
parts 001011+034040.
Assemble the part 001019 in the part 033158, screw and fit them into the balusters 127031 or 127035 with
the hole on the countersink side and finally tighten.
Fit the part 033078 in the part 033158. Screw on with the part 011072.
c) rod joining baluster assembly (z): fit the part 011071 in the hole of the baluster 127031 or 127035 on the
countersink side. On the other side fit the part 033159, overlay the part 033160 and screw it on. Assemble the
part 001019 in the part 033158, screw on and fit them to the balusters 127031 or 127035 with the hole on
the countersink side and finally tighten them.
Fit the part 033078 in the part 033158. Screw on with the part 011072.
Cutting the arrival landing
4. T o define and trace the cutting line of the round landing, operate as follows:
1) carefully measure the floor opening.
2) calculate the centre of the floor opening.
3) trace the shape of the round opening in proximity of the landing floor on a piece of the packaging cardboard;
cut the cardboard and position it symmetrically on the lower part (underside) of the landing at a distance with
respect to the centre equal to half the opening previously measured (Fig. 3).
5. T o define and trace the cutting lines of triangular or trapezoidal landings, operate as follows:
1) carefully measure the floor opening.
2) calculate the centre of the floor opening.
3) trace the cutting lines parallel to the existing edges on the lower part (underside) of the landing at a distance
with respect to the centre equal to half the opening previously measured (Fig. 4).
