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.
Fit the part 033158 into the balusters 127031 or 127035 with the hole on the countersink side and finally
tighten them (the parts 001027 and 001028 are already fitted in the part 033158 as shown in Fig. 1).
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. Fit the
part 033158 into the balusters 127031 or 127035 with the hole on the countersink side and finally tighten
them (the parts 001027 and 001028 are already fitted in the part 033158 as shown in Fig. 1).
Fit the part 033078 in the part 033158. Screw on with the part 011072.
7. A ssemble the parts 116022, 116012 and 033150 of the end support with the parts 011062, 009008 and
005009 according to the depth chosen previously. (see point 3) (Fig. 3 - 5 - 6).
Based on the step depth, fit the parts 033150 according to the following criteria:
a) 32 cm step: use the parts 033150 without any modification;
b) 29 cm step: cut along the pre-cut line;
c) 26.5 cm step: do not use the parts 033150.
8. C ut, if necessary, the straight final tread with the muley saw (cutting is required for the depths of 29 and
26.5 cm (Fig. 3). Sand off any imperfections on the edge using sandpaper and protect with the wood stain
provided.
9. U sing a 5 mm Ø bit, drill a hole in the treads on either side at a distance equal to the step calculated
previously
(see point 3) (Fig. 8A).
Warning: drill a hole in the final tread only on the side where the railing will be fitted!
Fit the part 001004 in the parts 033142 and then assemble them on the straight treads using the screws
002040 at a distance equal to the step calculated previously (see point 3) (Fig. 8A).
10. F it the parts 001010 on the treads (Fig. 1). Determine the position of the final tread with respect to the
support 116012 and position it in correspondence to the floor opening according to the measurement made.
11. D etermine the opening point in the floor in correspondence to the slot in the support plate 116022. Drill a
hole using an 18 mm Ø bit (Fig. 3).
12. F asten the end support to the floor using the parts 008020 without tightening. Assemble the final tread to
the support with the parts 009012 and 011038 and tighten. Check that the tread is horizontal and finally
secure the parts 008020 (Fig. 4).
13. Fit the part 132013 to cover the plate (Fig. 4) using the parts 008004+002035.
14. P lace the intermediate support 116002 or 116004 on the end support 116012 interposing the relative
plastic spacers 031078 calculated previously and lock it with a self-locking clamp. Fit the bolt 003009, the
parts 009041, 023039, 009040 and 005040. Assemble the tread with the parts 009012 and 011038
without tightening; on one side between two treads fit a railing baluster 127031 or 127035 (end x,
intermediate y or joining z) (Fig. 8), and on the other side a provisional baluster 127033 (135 cm high without
holes) to determine the exact alignment of the assembly. Replace the provisional baluster with a section of
the same baluster previously cut based on the rise measurement. If necessary, cut the balusters 127031 or
127035 on the lower side to obtain a railing height of about 100 cm. Orient the the balusters with the part
033078 with the drilled part facing up (Fig. 7). Check that the tread is horizontal and the balusters vertical,
finally tighten the nut 005040 to a torque of 100 Nm, and the parts 009012 and 011038. Prop up the
supports as you proceed with assembly of the structure and the treads to ensure that the weight is not borne
by the floor.
Corner tread assembly: use a provisional baluster also on the outside to determine positioning of the corner
tread fulcrum (it is recommended to use the provisional baluster to prevent damaging the end baluster).
It is essential to fit a prop every 4-5 supports and, for safety reasons, it is strictly prohibited to climb the
staircase before having fastened it to the floor and stiffened it. Continue in the same way with assembly of
the remaining intermediate supports (Fig. 1).
15. F inally, assemble the base support 116006, complete with tread, interposing the plastic spacers 031078
calculated previously. Finally tighten the part 003039 (Fig. 1). Remove the first and the second tread and
check the position of the staircase with respect to the stairwell opening and correct it if necessary. Drill a
hole in the floor using a 14 mm Ø bit: fit the parts 008021 and finally tighten them. Refit the treads removed
previously (Fig. 1). When assembly has been completed, determine the height of the fulcrum baluster and
replace the provisional baluster with a baluster 127033 or 127045 cut to size (Fig. 8B).
Landing structure assembly (go to point 17 for models without landing)
16. A ssemble the support 116010 to the intermediate support 116002 interposing the plastic spacers
031078 calculated previously without tightening. Assemble the parts 116024 to the landing structure
116020/116018/116016/116014 (three sizes are possible) in the position given by the distance from the
wall. Assemble the landing structure to the support 116010 (support the structure with a sufficient number
of props) with the parts 116026 and 011065. Assemble the part 116008 to the landing structure with the
parts 116026 and 011065. Position the wooden landing without fastening it and check that the staircase
is horizontal and aligned. Assemble the intermediate support 116002 interposing the plastic spacers
