Assembly
5.1
Trial installation
The container should be assembled on a trial basis before the final assembly to determine the position
the following connections:
•
Inlet
•
Overflow
After opening the connections it is important to remove and clean all the drilling and sawing swarf from
the tank.
5.2
Tank assembly
The tanks consist of two identically constructed halves. For the assembly, the half with
the closed side is positioned on the compacted and level ground surface. The profiled
sealing ring is then well coated with lubricating soft soap and pressed with the ribbed
side into the continuous perimeter of the inner seat recess. Before the second half of
the tank is set in position, the seal and the seat recess of the upper half must also be
well coated with the lubricating soft soap. During the assembly it is important to ensure
that the seal does not slip out of the seat recess.
To secure the two halves, the connection clips are fitted first in a counter-
clockwise direction and then in a clockwise direction. To assist in the
assembly it may be necessary to press the two tank halves together with a
number of G-clamps. To do this, position 3 to 4 G-clamps at equal intervals
around the lip of the tank and then begin to tighten them evenly. Finally
position the connection clips by hand and then drive them securely into place
using a hammer with a piece of wood in between, the clips will then locate in
the final engaged position.
