Installation Procedure

1. Position the U-bolt around the 4" pipe, ensuring the pipe is properly seated within the U-bolt's curve. 2. Insert the threaded legs through the mounting holes of the corresponding bracket or support structure. 3. Secure each leg with a washer and nut, tightening them evenly to achieve firm support without overtightening, which could damage the polycarbonate.
