Instructions for Installing the Angled Railbolt Connector

Step 1: Install the Keyhole Disc

After completing the prep work, drill a 1″ hole into the newel post.
Install the keyhole disc using the provided screws. Ensure the disc is flush or slightly recessed into the post for a proper fit.

Step 2: Dry Fit the Railbolt

Dry fit the railbolt to the newel post to ensure the proper angle and alignment.
If necessary, adjust the cut to achieve the correct fit and angle before proceeding.

Step 3: Glue and Tighten

Once satisfied with the fit, apply glue to the connection and insert the angled railbolt tip into the keyhole disc.
Using the included 5mm hex bit, tighten the gear-driven die-cast housing with a cordless screwdriver to secure the connection.

Important Note:

Do not use an impact driver to tighten the gear housing, as this could cause over-tightening or damage.
