Install the Enardo lock down hatch on a flat surface with 

a base gasket and an opening with a mating API bolt 

pattern of 16 - 5/8 in. bolt holes on a 10 - 3/8 in. bolt 

circle or an 8 in. CL150 FF flange. 

2.  Place the base gasket on the top of the mating bolt 

pattern and align the hatch base with the gasket. Insert 

the bolts downward into the base bolt holes through the 

gasket and mounting deck. 

3.  Open the hatch and utilize the opening to gain access 

to the bottom of the bolts to attach the nuts. Using a 

socket wrench on the under side of the hatch and deck 

to secure the nut, tighten the bolts until secured. 

Note

Do not overtighten. Retighten clockwise to 

secure completely. 

4.  Close the lid and the installation is complete.
