attached to the post. Failure to
attach level properly could give an
incorrect reading. Level should
“click” into place.

the clip-on level, continue to tighten
ONLY until the red zone at the top of
the post is no longer visible (Figures
13-A & B).
Red zone must not be visible for

handle down to fit into the bottom
part of the post to lock the post in
place (Figure 14).
NOTE– Once the blue locking handle is pressed
into the bottom portion of the post, the
post can be turned as a whole, except
the top and foot plate. This will not
lower the post. The post must turn to
enable you to attach the rail.
18. Place the rail onto the pins of the
bath post (Figure 15). Refer to the
drawing to find out which set of pins
to use to hang the rail.
a. For the 2-post assembly, use the
higher set of pins (Figure 16).
b. For 3-post assembly with the
bath bracket installed on pivot-
ing rail, use the lower set of pins

Bath Base Kit
Before each time you use the Easytrack Bath Base Kit:
