Insert end of rail into the Bending Tool all the
way so rail touches the back rim of the tool.
Bend the rail - the Bending Tool will create the
optimum shape and length for inserting rail
into the Joining Buckle.
With ribs of the Joining Buckle facing you,
insert both ends of the pre-bent rail through
the middle slot. (see Diagram
)
Note:
Make sure you have the Joining Buckle
facing the proper direction! (see Diagram
)
Pull enough rail through the slot to allow you
to further manipulate the rail ends.
Hand bend the ends to be close to parallel to the rail.
Insert each end into the appropriate outside slots. Pull/push both rails down
through the slots as much as possible. (see Diagrams
and
)
With your thumbs resting on the outer edges of the Buckle - press down on the
Buckle, while at the same time, putting pressure on the rail. Trying to make the
assembly as “flat” as possible.
The joined assembly will flatten out during final tensioning.
