Cut Pipe To Allow For Pads
1. At each pipe joint, put self-tapping screws on each side of 6.5” wide
parallel dotted lines printed on the pipe, as shown in diagram at left.
2. Start cutting at least 2" (5 cm) from end of pipe as shown above. Cut
along the parallel dotted lines. Finish cuts at point where pads will stop.
NOTE: Do not cut pipe into Float Valve Tank slot. Stop 6” from Cover.
Do not cut pipe all the way to the end, as it will be impossible to
assemble the end cap!
3. Remove and discard cut-out section of PVC pipe.
4. If using 4” thick Pad, mark with chalk line, two parallel lines running along the
length of pipe. These lines should be at a distance apart of 4.5" (11.43 cm) cm
as measured along the outside of pipe. Then cut out section of PVC pipe and
follow note 2 and 3.
Put self-tapping screws on
each side of line at joints.
Opening in pipe is measured along
outside of pipe.
NOTE: Overlap joints of pipe
sections to make up entire
length of system.
Secure joints with screws as
shown.
