Attaching to a Floating Dock
It will we necessary to use 2 lengths of 2” schedule 40
Galvanized Pipe. Measure the distance between the top of the
dock and the top of the permaport (Dim A). You will need 2
pieces of 2” Diameter, schedule 40 galvanized pipe that is at
least 36” longer than that dimension. If you want to leave the
pipe above the dock to act as a handle to assist in accessing the
Permaport that needs to be added to the length of the pipe.
Position the Permaport under the Dock
brackets as shown and slide the two lengths
of pipe through the dock bracket and the
Permaport brackets ensuring that they
protrude at least 20” below the Permaport
bottom face.
Tighten the bolts and locking nuts on the
brackets
Note: On some floating dock installations where the free
board is low the Permaport bracket may come close to the
dock
bracket, in that instance, it is permissible to install the
permaport Brackets reversed as shown
For floating docks that are subject to rough water conditions there is additional hardware
supplied in the separate hardware box.
The directions for utilizing this additional feature are contained in the hardware box.
Should we send another Urethane clamp and a diagonal arm for rough water??
