Installation Procedure

1. Position the U-bolt around the 4" pipe, ensuring it straddles the pipe correctly. 2. Thread the accompanying nuts onto the U-bolt legs, hand-tightening initially. 3. Using appropriate wrenches, tighten the nuts evenly to secure the pipe without over-compressing the nylon. Avoid excessive torque to prevent material damage.
