S.R.Smith BIG RIDE Assembly And Installation Instructions Manual page 8

You should place eleven 3/8" x 1 ¾" Hex Head Bolts (2) through the connection of the exit and
2.
middle sections to make sure that holes line up properly. The bolts should all face the same
direction, with the head of the bolt pointed towards the slide exit. After the bolts are placed
through both sections, check to make
sure that the slide runway is smooth,
and that any lip should be higher on the
upper section of the slide. Then place
the 3/8" Flat Washer (1) and 3/8" Lock
Washer (4) on the bolts and tighten the
3/8" Hex Nut (3) from both sides with the
ratchet and wrench. If the slide pieces
do not line up properly, you can clamp
them, with three C-clamps, so that the
slide runway is smooth, and then drill
two new alignment holes and tighten
them before adding the other bolts.
This should be repeated for all eleven bolts on
3.
the exit and middle connecting flanges. When
all of the bolts are tight, check the runway for
any Sikaflex 291 that is protruding from the
between the two sections. This should be
away before it is allowed to set.
For the platform section, apply Sikaflex 291 to the
4.
outside flange and then press against the other end
of the middle section. Repeat Steps 2-3 for the
connection between the middle and platform
sections.
