Installation guide
- Drill hole to the required diameter and depth for socket size being used.
- Clean the hole thoroughly with brush and hand pump at least four times before installation.
- Insert cartridge into gun and attach nozzle.
- Dispense to waste until even colour is obtained.
- Insert the mixing nozzle to the far end of the hole and inject resin, slowly withdrawing the nozzle as the hole is filled to 70% of its depth.
- Immediately insert the socket, slowly and with slight twisting motion. Remove any excess resin around the hole before it sets and leave it undisturbed until the curing time elapses.
- Attach fixture and tighten the bolt to the required torque.
