Step 5a
–
Inserting the Chevron
Two chevrons (supplied by GV) are to be fitted into the second section. One end of the chevron is tapered, the other is rectangular.
This is to aid in the installation so that the chevron can twist up or down for the installation of the second section.
Apply some silicone to the rectangular end of the chevron and slide them into place in the second section. See figure 7a.

Place and fix section two.
Lay a continuous strip of butyl tape (supplied) onto the underlay hard up against the internal aperture as shown in figure 6b.
Apply silicone to the tapered end of the chevron. Carefully lower the second section down, guiding the chevron into place with the
first section.
Once satisfied that everything is correctly positioned, carefully release the weight of the product. Remove the crane and lifting
equipment.
