construction sealant are not supplied with the slide gate.
Installation:
The concrete construction shall be flat, level and plumb, and shall be in accordance to ACI
117-06 standard.
If necessary, use non-shrink grout in order to meet the specified standard.
Apply construction sealant all around the perimeter of the frame. Sikabond (200 ml/m) or
equivalent construction sealant shall be used.
Partially tighten the four corner bolts, and check that the weir gate is perfectly lined up with the
wall thimble opening.
Install the rest of the bolts, and evenly tighten all of them.
