5. After confirming hole positions, use a 1-3/8" hole saw bit to drill the four (4) holes in the 2" tube. Example shows using a step bit to drill the holes. Keep all
holes aligned during this step. Use the printing on the pipe if possible.
NOTE:
Pvc pipe can remain clamped in the hangers, or it can be removed and drilled off the rack. If you leave it clamped to the rack, block the center of
the pipe or have an assistant hold it to prevent damage to the pipe hangers. For best results, drill pvc in a drill press if possible.
To release the pvc pipe from the clamps, press the pipe into the hanger and use a small screw driver to release the hanger jaws. Hangers will release
easily. Be careful not to damage the locking teeth of the hanger jaws.

6. After drilling the pipe, remove all pvc debris and clean inside the tube. If pipe was drilled on the rack, remove it from the lower level and install at the upper
level after cleaning. Use the lower level hangers to hold and drill the pipe. Diagram below shows top view of pvc pipe after drilling drain holes.
Place a 2" x 4" under the center
to brace pipe if drilling holes
