Each gang of Auto-Fold chairs will require two trip assemblies to unlock the rows during closing of the bleacher.
The trip assemblies:
•mounted under the deck starting on 2T
•pass up through holes in the deck
•connect to the unlock bars
Using the approximate mechanism layout (page 5) as a starting point.
1. Look under the decking for obstructions and locate spot for (2) trip assemblies in an area free and clear of deck stabilizers or frame
cantilevers
2. Using framing square, locate the hole a minimum of 6” away from the cantilever to avoid interference with frame columns. Draw a pencil
line perpendicular from the rear riser max of 4” long, centered between the hole spacing in the nosing. (MAXAM only)
If the deck has a riser spacer, the drill template must be spaced off the rear riser the same dimension towards the nosing.
3. Align drill template up tight against the vertical surface of the rear riser and mark hole. (MAXAM only)
Align drill template up tight against rear riser and inbound seam in aluminum decking and mark hole. (MXP & MAXAM aluminum deck
only)
4. Remove the drill template and drill a hole though the decking using the hole saw. Do not cut through the lower leg of the rear
riser, only the decking.
5. Once entire row is complete and drill debris cleaned up, proceed to Mechanism Attachment instructions.

This next procedure will be to attach the mechanisms to the riser and deck. This will ensure the chairs are located within the allowable seating
area. In simplest terms you will want to center the amount of chairs within that allowable seating area, between steps or between step and the
end of the bank.
Using the job package drawings for the beam sizes:
1. Add up the total length of beam(s) plus ¼” for every gap between each beam.
2. Take that calculated length and subtract it from amount of allowable seating in that row you are working on. This amount is the “extra”
space you have to work with.
3. Take that “extra” space dimension and divide that in half. This amount will be used to locate your first gang from either end of the allowable
seating area.
4. The mechanisms, unlock bars and beams that are ganged together can now be moved into position. Secure one of the mechanisms to the
deck / riser (see hardware listed above).
5. Once one of the end mechanisms is in its proper place and secured to the deck & riser, secure the second mechanism for this one gang
of seating.
*The mechanism centerline may be shifted from the centerline of the beam a couple of inches one-way or another if required. The
maximum end beam cantilever distance cannot be greater than 22”.

4. The mechanisms, unlock bars and beams that are ganged together can now be moved into position. Secure the first
mechanism in the gang to the deck / riser (see hardware listed above).
5. Once one of the end mechanisms is in its proper place and secured to the deck & riser, secure the second mechanism for this gang
of seating and repeat until all mechanisms in a gang have been secured. Complete the gang by securing the unlock bar clamps near the
center of the gang. This will stop the unlock bar from moving side-to-side.
*The mechanism centerline may be shifted from the centerline of the beam a couple of inches one-way or another if required. The
maximum end beam cantilever distance cannot be greater than 22”.

Trip Assembly (Auto-Fold operation)
Each gang of Auto-Fold chairs will require two Trip Assemblies to unlock the rows during closing of the bleacher. The closing of the tiers will push
the Trip Assembly up and when connected to the Unlock Bar, this will unlock the rows of seating.
The trip assemblies:
•mounted under the deck starting on 2T
•pass up through holes in the deck
•connect to the unlock bars
Now that you’ve located the holes in the decking (reference Deck Drilling section) the Trip Assemblies can be mounted to the underside. Trip
Assemblies attach to the deck nosing, extend back beyond the rear riser.
1. With the bleacher in the open position, locate the nose plate of the Trip Assembly behind the nosing and attach with the specified
hardware. MAXAM and MXP are different.
2. The pivot/spring mechanism on the long square tube should be in the vertical position and aimed upward.
3. Rotate the long square tube part up closer to the underside of the decking. The pivot/spring portion of the Trip Assembly will go
through the hole previously drilled in the decking.
4. Check that the long square tube is perpendicular to the nosing and the pivot/spring has clearance on all sides as it goes through the
hole in the decking. For best operation, the Trip Assembly can be adjusted side-to-side where it is connected at the nosing. MAXAM
can be moved to the next hole pitch, while MXP is infinitely adjustable.
5. Attachment of this Trip Assembly mechanism to the to the Unlock Bar (above deck) will happen in the next section of this document.

Trip Assembly Deflector (Auto-Fold operation)
The trip mechanisms, in most cases, will be actuated by either the riser on the lower tier or the riser filler. Custom rises that do not require riser
fillers, will need to have a trip mechanism deflector installed.
MAXAM with 11 5/8R, 16R or custom rise
The Trip Assemblies are actuated by contact with the rear riser on 9 5/8R. With other rise situations a Deflector is required to be installed.
1. Locate one Deflector in line with each of the long square tube of the Trip Assembly and flush to the bottom edge of the rear riser.
2. Attach the Deflector to the rear riser with (2) self-drilling screws.

Armrest assemblies will be located at the “aisle end” of the beam and between each chair module throughout the row.
1. Locate the first armrest on the beam, rotate the armrest clamp into position and tighten armrest clamp with M6 hex key bit.
2. Using the Center-to-Center dimensions from job package drawing, locate and fasten the remainder of armrests on beam.
3. When seating rows have more than one beam, double armrests are not supplied. An armrest will be attached to one side of the gap in the
beam while the other side of the gap in the beam will remain without an arm. The patron on each side of the gap will share this armrest.
4. If the rise of the stand is less than 11 5/8” it may be necessary to install arm assemblies with glides. The assemblies with glides (factory
Installed) prevent interference between the arm and the nose on the tier above. They should be installed within the seat gang closest to the
1/3 points and not at the ends.
Assemble units as described. To do otherwise may
result in instability. All screws, nuts and bolts must
be tightened securely and must be checked
periodically after assembly.
Failure to assemble properly, or to secure parts
may result in assembly failure and potential injury.

With the armrests installed at the proper center-to-center dimensions, the chair module installation can begin.
1. Slide the chair module over the back portion of the beam between two armrests.
2. Rotate the chair module forward and up to snap the module into the initial position on the beam.
3. Center the chair module between the armrests and tighten / torque the two module clamp bolts with a M6 hex key bit. The torque
requirement shown above will ensure the chair modules are not over tightened and will not loosen after installation is completed.
