INSTALLATION (continued)
THE CONTAINER
• The debris exiting the chute will be directed into a suitable steel container. A dump-truck, or
similar loading vehicle, is not suitable because falling material can present a hazard to the
truck operator.
• Barricade the container area (see
page 47
for details).
• Tie the chute’s discharge end to the container using one or two lengths of Superchute
®
Container Cord (provided free of charge with every chute order). Unlike Regular cords and
ropes, Container Cord is designed to fail. If a full container is accidentally driven away
with the chute still attached, the Container Cord will fail and the chute system will not be
pulled from the building.
• Do not double up the Container Cord or use more than one or two lengths to attach the
chute’s discharge end to the container. The effect would be to increase the strength of the
attachment, which would make it less likely to fail if it should need to do so. See the
sketches below.
Å RIGHT
The chute is tied off to the far end of the
container. This arrangement allows the end of
the chute to be easily moved about the
container, and provides a desirable level of slack
for any strong winds.
WRONG Æ
The Container Cord has been applied in such a way
that it will not fail easily if undue stress is applied
.
