28. Check that the balusters C03 are vertical and correct this, if necessary, repeating the operations described in
points 25, 26 and 27.
29. Identify the fixing point of element F01 on the floor in correspondence with the first baluster C03 (H. 1230 mm).
After checking that it is vertical, take off the column and drill with a Ø 8 mm bit. Use elements B11, B12 and
B02 (fig. 1).
30. Position the first baluster C03 (H. 1230 mm) together with the element F07 after cutting it by 35 mm. Finally
secure element F07 to baluster C03 by means of the components B02.
31. Heat the handrail A02 until it is malleable:
1) rest the handrail on the cover of the wooden box,
2) slowly heat it performing circular movements without stopping,
3) overturn the handrail and repeat the operation (fig. 10).
32. Position the handrail A02 on the balusters C03 (using gloves). Fix it on the first column C03 at the top with
elements B54 and B55 after drilling it with a Ø 5 mm bit in its lower part before it cools (fig. 9).
33. Cut the exceeding part of handrail A02 so that it does not hamper the operations.
34. Drill handrail A02 in correspondence with the holes present on all the elements B53 and fix it with elements
B54 and B55.
35. Insert the remaining balusters C03 in the treads L02 in close succession (for a Ø 120 cm staircase only one
intermediate column H.1135 mm; for Ø 140 cm and Ø 160 cm staircases two intermediate columns H. 1100
and H. 1170 mm). Tighten elements B02 taking care that they are vertical and fix them to the handrail A02
using elements B54 and B55.
36. In correspondence with the first baluster C03 of the staircase, perform a final cut of the handrail A02.
37. Insert element A03 on handrail A02 (eliminate burrs due to cut) using the glue X01 after heating the end of
handrail A02 (fig. 1).
38. Secure elements B02, D32 and D33 in a permanent manner using the part C36.
39. Complete the railing assembly by inserting elements B82 into the lower part of the balusters C03 (fig. 1).
Assembling the balustrade
40. Screw column C04 onto element G01 protruding from the landing E03 (fig. 1).
41. Secure element B16 to column C04 using element B02 (fig. 1).
42. Fix elements F01 using the components B07, B06, B23 in the holes present on the landing E03 as in (fig. 1).
43. Position the shorter balusters C03 (H.975 mm) into elements F01 and tighten element B02. In the hole with
elements D32 and D33 present on the landing E03 use a baluster C03 (H. 1100 mm) cutting it by 95 mm.
44. Secure the handrail A18 using elements B54 and B55 (fig. 1).
45. Connect the end part of the railing to the short stretch of the balustrade on landing E03 using the appropriate
fixture obtained when assembling elements A20, A03, C92 and B08 (fig. 11). On the handrail A02 clean the cut
and heat the end part, fix the caps A03 of the fixture obtained (after cleaning the cut and heating the end part of
the handrail A02) using the glue X01, fix in a permanent manner with screws C87 (fig. 11).
Final Assembly
46. To further stiffen the staircase at intermediate points, secure elements F09 to the wall and join them to the
balusters C03 using elements F08. Drill using a Ø 8 mm bit and use elements B85, B86, B11 and B12 (fig. 13).
47. Glue the step board H01 onto the treads L02 using element B96 (fig. 1).
48. Glue the step board H03 and H04 onto the landing E03 using element B96 (fig. 1).
