Installation Procedure

1. Ensure pipe ends are clean and free of debris. 2. Apply appropriate solvent cement designed for polycarbonate to both the pipe end and the fitting socket. 3. Insert the pipe into the fitting with a slight twisting motion until it reaches the bottom of the socket. 4. Hold the joint firmly for 30 seconds to prevent slippage while the cement begins to set.
