The Eave Platform floor is installed under both the Roof Ladder and Manhole
Panels, with the Floor Plate even with the Eave. To ensure proper fit, do not install
with the Floor level one Body Sheet below the Eave.
The Top Ladder section is located to the right of the Eave Platform. (Bins with side
Ladders and Rest Platforms not using this Manhole-Eave Package will follow the
standard layout in BROCK® Platform Manual MLD2026. If there is no Eave
Platform the top Ladder starts in line with the Roof Ladder Panel.)
A Spring Gate assembly must be installed between the right (open) end of the Eave
Platform and the Ladder-and-Cage access.
A Manhole Surround is installed on the right side and Fillhole (upper) end of the
Manhole, and is connected to the Stairway vertical Posts.
While Platform assembly is the same for all diameters, on 42' and 48' models,
Platform connection to the Manhole Surround differs from other diameters. If you
are installing this Platform package to a 42' or 48' Roof, follow the additional
instructions on pages 34-35.

The Manhole Surround on 42' and 48' Farm Roofs requires an additional vertical
Post (Item 1) * to the right of the Manhole. Upper and Lower Surround Tubes
(Items 74 and 75) are sized specifically for these diameter models. See Fig. 22.
A large L-shaped, slotted Platform-to-Post Bracket (Item 35) is used to connect the
Eave Platform to the bottom vertical Post. On 42' and 48' Farm Roofs, the Bracket
is attached to the left side of the bottom Post. See Fig. 23 on facing page.
