CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Clean the
module floor surface, and position protective
material to protect the module surface.
Wearing gloves and using a soft, damp cloth, carefully
wipe the joining surfaces of each module section to
remove any dust or dirt.
Apply 2" (5cm) wide masking tape along the entire length
of the joining surfaces inside each module section. See
Fig. #6.
Create a gap for sealing by installing a flat washer
between upper and lower mounting blocks at a door
column. Repeat at the other door column and back
corners.
Locate the flat washers so they do not block bolt holes,
and do not protrude into the wall joint.
NOTE: Clear silicone sealant is a superior product to
ensure against leaks. Use of acrylic or other caulks is not
recommended. Sealant may set up quickly. Proceed to
the next steps immediately.
Work from inside the module. Apply a generous,
continuous bead of silicone sealant into the joint.
TIGHTEN THE BOLTS IN SEQUENCE
Reinstall bolts into the upper blocks and gently tap them
into the corresponding lower blocks.
Remove the spacer washers and allow the upper section
to slide down. Tighten all bolts starting at the door columns
and work to the center of the back wall in sequence shown
at right. Do not over-tighten.
Remove excess sealant from the front face of the module.
Use methyl hydrate to remove silicone sealant.
Spread out any excess sealant found along back side
seam areas. Additional sealant should be applied along
the back side seam areas.
Check that all nuts and bolts are tight.
