Section F Anchor System to Floor Important: Before anchoring your system to the floor verify the entire installation is where you want it, square to the lines marked in step C-1 and leveled.
- Page 11 Sealing 1. Clean along the edge of all of the “Sanislope T’s” where they come in contact with the concrete using denatured alcohol applied to shop rag. 2. Apply a thin bead of sealant provided along the seam created between the “Sanislope T” and the concrete as shown in Figure 14 above.
- Page 12 Section H Gate / Stall Front Adjustment During shipment and installation, gate assemblies may be forced out of adjustment. If your gate does not latch automatically when pushed closed, the latch can be adjusted by following these instructions. Chain link Gate / Stall Front (Reference Figure 16) During the following adjustment process you may need to move the wire mesh slightly.
- Page 13 Figure 17 Maintenance Over time, your Mason kennels might require adjustments, lubrication, or replacement parts in order to remain in top working condition. We recommend a yearly maintenance schedule to lubricate door hinges, adjust gate locks and any other moving parts. A standard, industrial grease works well.
