Fitting
N.B.: The highest permitted design category and the highest permitted application is stated on
every porthole.
When fitting the porthole, take the following into account:
- A porthole must always open inward.
- When fitted in area 1 on sailing or motor ships within design category A or B, no part of the
porthole should protrude beyond the hull.
- Only fit in a
completely flat
hull section! The porthole will never be watertight when closed if
fitted in a curved surface!

Dust released when cutting and sanding glass-fibre reinforced polyester is hazardous to lungs
and eyes. So always wear a dust mask and goggles when working with this material. Ventilate
the working area well.
The porthole can be fitted in a surface with a minimum thickness of 2 mm. and a maximum thick-
ness of 25 mm.
