Assembly Instructions

It is recommended that a minimum of two people participate to safely assemble the tank. 

Assemblers must wear safety glasses during the entire assembly. The top half of the 

tank weighs approximately 169 pounds (77 kg) and the bottom half of the tank weighs 

approximately 162 pounds (74 kg) for a total approximate weight of 331 pounds (151 kg). 

Each tank half must be lifted approximately 30 inches (750 mm) above ground during 

the  assembly  process.  There  must  be  enough  side  and  overhead  clearance  to  freely 

maneuver the tank components and to operate lifting machinery when used.

The CM-1060 tank must be assembled by an Infiltrator Water Technologies Authorized 

Assembler.  Tanks  assembled  by  unauthorized  assemblers  will  not  be  warrantied  by 

Infiltrator Water Technologies. A signed copy of the CM-1060 Tank Assembly Checklist & 

Assembly Authorization is required for all Authorized Assemblers.

IMPLOSIONS MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY

Follow Infiltrator Water Technologies, vacuum test instructions 

NEVER EXCEED 2.5 inches mercury vacuum pressure

WARNING:  These  assembly  instructions  do  not  include  a  protocol  for  vacuum  testing  the  CM-1060  tank.  If  required, 

vacuum tests on the CM-1060 shall only be performed in strict accordance with Infiltrator’s CM-1060 tank vacuum testing 

guidance  documents.  Failure  to  follow  an  Infiltrator  vacuum-testing  protocol  and/or  exceeding  2.5  inches  (63  mm)  of 

mercury vacuum pressure could result in personal harm. Never apply a positive air pressure to the CM-1060 tank. Infiltrator 

will not be liable for any problems that arise from such unauthorized use.
