9. Release both of the adjustable ratchet buckles when the hinged assembly is closed. The weight
of the sleeve can cause considerable strain in the nylon slings, so be extremely careful and
mindful of where your fingers are when the ratchet buckles are released.
10. The faces of each sleeve half should now be parallel and gapped approximately 2 to 7 inches
depending on the size of the sleeve. The bolt holes should be aligned allowing the studbolts to be
inserted into the bolt holes.
11. If the studbolts cannot be inserted, insert a pry bar between the two sleeve halves near the
hinges, being careful not to damage the seals. The sleeve halves can now be maneuvered into a
parallel position thus allowing the insertion of the studbolts.
12. Complete the installation following the PLIDCO Split+Sleeve Installation Instructions, IP-021. The
nylon slings can be left loosely in place or removed if desired.
