Assembly:
Before getting started:
•
To prevent damage to the parts during assembly, it is recommended that cardboard or
some other protective barrier is laid down on the ground where the slide is to be
assembled.
•
Verify that the gasket material is affixed to the slide parts as shown in Figures 2 and 3.
•
During assembly, be sure to apply a thin coat of anti-seize compound to the threads of all
fasteners. Anti-seize helps aid in assembly, prevents galling, and improves corrosion
resistance.
1) Assemble the pedestal part to the runway exit section as shown in Figure 4. Attach the pedestal part
to the runway exit section by inserting the two lag screws into the holes located in the bottom of the
pedestal.
2) Before inserting the lag bolts into the side of the runway exit part, 1/4" pilot holes must be drilled into
the center of each of the recesses. The pilot holes should be drilled through both the runway exit
section and into the pedestal.

3) Place the assembled runway exit section and pedestal upright so that the pedestal is resting on the
ground. Notes: It may take more than one person to perform this step. Verify that the gasket
material is properly attached before assembling the parts.
4) Insert the threaded studs into each of the threaded inserts as shown in Figure 5. The studs should be
screwed in by hand until they reach the bottom of the insert. If the studs cannot be threaded in by
hand, pliers may be used. Before using pliers, a piece of cloth should be placed over the stud to
protect the threads from damage. Note: Be sure to apply anti-seize to all fasteners to prevent
galling.
