Assembly
Field Cuts
1 . Distribute Multi-gard sections along
the sides of the trench with male ends
pointing towards starting vault entrance.
2 . Remove protective cap and
install Multi-Gard terminator on
male end. Install first section
into vault opening or enclosure
making sure the print line is on
the top stating “INSTALL PRINT
LINE UP.” (See next page for
terminations.)
2 . A spare spacer may be
installed to align the innerducts
if they seem loose.
2 . Align innerducts on Multi-Gard section “ A ” with
couplings on section “ B ”. Solvent cement each coupling
for air tight seal and push until both ends are flush.
Apply solvent cement to both ends of Multi-Gard and
slide sleeve until it is centered on both sections.
3. Each consecutive 20' section can now be
placed by inserting the male end into the gas-
keted belled end

" to the gasket depth. Make
sure the print line is upright. (If not, rotate the
outer duct until it is.) Now push the sections
together with a firm push until belled end seats
against insertion line.
3. Raise both ends and align the innerducts
on the male end into the coupling body on
the female end. Lower both ends and the
innerducts will automatically return to their
original position as the joints are forced
together.
