pontoon bridge

[tison]

recently a friend of mine bought a pontoon bridge (the real thing) and is wondering how to put it together.
the type is:
ponton float single tube
FSN 5420-285-8726
serial no 68
MFR Uniroyal inc prov R.I.
it is probably something produced in the late seventies.
if there is somebody who has some drawings of it or know where I can get this, it would be very much appreciated

thanx

He bought a bridge or a single pontoon?

He bought a bridge or a single pontoon?

he bought 3 pontoon's and is wondering how they can be locked together, and how to use them as a bridge. I'll ask him to take some pictures and will post them here.

thanx in advance.

Might be part of an M4T6 float bridge. Not too bad to assemble. Needs a big compressor. Manual is TC 5-210.

This is it, thank you very much.

If he has enough parts you could do a three float cluster. It's been a long time since I put one together. The only difference from one to the other is the type of saddles used and their position relative to the other rafts.

I will ask him what he has, I know he is trying to get spare parts.
