WARNING: pay particular attention to avoid interferences between the lid and the hull opening. Too precise contacts
will cause damages to the entire moving system (fig.7).
• Make the closing lid by keeping on all sides a space vary-
ing from 3 to 5 mm, paying special attention to the hinge’s
side, ensuring that the internal walls are inclined by 45° so
that they don’t hinder the hull’s opening (fig. 7 and 8).
• To obtain the correct opening of the hinge, the surfaces of
hull and lid must be on the same level (fig. 9).
• The maximum hull thickness must be 35 mm (Fig. 8).
• Position the angle bar correctly on the hull
(fig. 10A and 10B - part. A).
Fasten the angle bar with structural adhesive
(fig. 10B - part. B1 - B2).
Decide whether to fasten the lid bracket to the hull with 3
M8 screws or with resin (fig. 10B - part. C1 - C2).

Mark all the fastening points (fig. 12), remove the hinge and hinge bracket and drill
using the Ø 8,5 mm bit.
Fasten the hinge and hinge bracket in the positions marked with stainless steel
hardware suitable for the application.
Adjust the central screw of the hinge (fig. 11) and position it correctly so that the
