Typical OHU Installation
WARNING: Take special
care installing this
connector. The beam
must be installed
perpendicular to the
support member. The
connections components
may be damaged if
the beam is rotated from
its opposite end during
or after installation.
Damaged components
may not be noticeable
and may reduce the
connectors load
carrying capacity.
