7. Following assembly, the gap between saddle and pipe around the
periphery should never exceed a maximum of 0.5mm. The size of this gap
may be easily checked sliding a clean test card card into the space
between the two components.
On the crown of the pipe, slide the magnetic card between pipe and saddle,
moving the card to the left and right, up to the arrowhead (approx. 5mm).
Tighten clamp handles evenly until the card is pinched. Then loosen slowly
until the card can be just eased out.
