ASSEMBLY MANUAL 

1. Install #1 pipe clamps to AZ-1000 assembly.
2. Install #2 pipe clamps to #1 pipe clamps. Do not tighten hardware during this step.

Clamps must be loose in order to slide onto pipe.

3. Slide system onto pipe, position and lightly tighten all six bolts.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Look over all the DRAWINGS to get familiar with the various parts and assem-
blies in the system. Tools handy for assembly process: screwdriver, 11/32, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16 and 5/8” 
spin-tites, end wrenches and/or sockets, measuring tape. 

Note:

 

All installations are unique in some way, which means it's OK to preassemble certain hardware, or 
rearrange the assembly process to meet specific site requirements. A quick review of the assembly 
notes and drawings should help firm up the appropriate strategy. Please remember to double-check 
all hardware for tightness BEFORE it becomes inaccessible.  

Two containers of zinc paste (Penetrox, Noalox, or equiv.) have been provided to enhance and 
maintain the quality of all electrical junctions on this system. Apply a thin coat wherever two 
pieces of aluminum come in contact or any other electrical connections are made. It is also 
useful on screws and bolt threads as an ANTI SEIZE compound.
