Select Installation and Bursting Pit Locations
Consider the following when selecting pit locations:
Slope
Unit should be parked on a level site. Consider how slope will affect unit setup and operation. Assess the
risks on each slope to determine if factors affecting risks create an unsafe condition for pipe bursting.
Traffic
Vehicle and pedestrian traffic must be a safe distance from pulling equipment. Allow at least 10’ (3 m)
buffer zone around equipment.
Space
Check that starting and ending points allow enough space for installation and bursting pits. See “Dig
Bursting Pit” on page 59.
Check that installation area has enough space for product to be installed.
Check that there is enough space to work.
Access
Consider shade, wind, fumes, and other site features.
