Abstract
A connection between step flange covers 54 and passenger conveyor frames 60 is adjustable to vary the position of a step flange cover relative 54 to moving tread plates 18 or a moving skirt 52 in at least two directions. The adjustable connection 64 permits the step flange cover 54 to be precisely positioned with respect to the tread plates 18 or the skirt 52 without the necessity of using crude adjustment techniques, such as, for example, using shims.
