CONNECTING COLLECTORS TOGETHER (CONTINUED)
5.
Seat both manifolds together by inserting the gasket into the opposite manifold groove and
placing the ends of both manifolds into the open space in the collector clamp bottom. (Fig. 3-D)
6.
Interlock the top half of the collector clamp with the hook on the bottom half. Swing top half
over top of collector manifolds. Squeeze the top and bottom portions of the collector clamp
together using channel lock pliers and lock both halves of the clamp together using the latch.
(Fig. 3 - E & F)
NOTE: Slide large end of locking clip over small end of plastic collector clamp assembly.
7.
Use channel lock pliers to tighten the clip grip by squeezing it with reasonable force
until it seats flush or even slightly farther so it cannot slide out of its position. (Fig. 3-G)
8.
Insert locking clip into slots on latch. (Fig. 3-H)
9.
Use this same procedure to connect both top and bottom manifolds of the collectors.
