NOTE

All end caps are sold in pairs only and are supplied with the proper rivets.
All rivet removals use a 3/16" drill bit, and a hand/air rivet gun to install.
If the end caps are roof ladders/fly section caps - they are plain type (no guide notch cut out)
If the end caps are for base sections/middle sections - they are cap types with a notch cut out for guides.
YOU STILL MUST ADVISE RAIL SIZE FOR PROPER FITS.

REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS FOR END CAPS ALL MODELS

Remove the old end caps by drilling out the old rivets - be sure to punch out the center core of the rivet before drilling the rivet.
Install new end caps with new rivets provided - be sure to check which cap is the right side and which is the left side - before you Install rivets.
The new end caps for Solid-side and Fiberglass (YG) ladders rivet only into the legs thru the rails. (2 rivets per leg)
After the new end caps are installed, you will notice there may be some old rivet holes that are not used (empty holes), we suggest you fill these rivet holes with any rivet available - these old holes are in a non-stressed area of the ladder and are not a concern.
