IMPORTANT: Please read all warnings and follow the installation instructions completely and carefully. Failure to do so

may cause product failure, or result in environmental contamination, creating hazardous spill conditions.

WARNING - DANGER: Using electrically-operated equipment near gasoline or gasoline vapors may result in fire or

explosion, causing personal injury and property damage. Be sure that the working area is free from such hazards, and always use proper

precautions.

STEP 1 BUNG ADAPTOR AND OR MANWAY INSTALLATIONS

IF MOUNTING TO A UST FIBERGLASS COLLAR SKIP STEP 1

AND GO TO STEP 2.

For bung adaptor mounting flanges or manway style installations,

locate center indication mark in base for proper alignment of template.

(See Figure 1) After holes are drilled, sand surrounding areas with a

minimum of 40 grit or coarser sandpaper or grinder. Clean all sanded

surfaces with Acetone to remove any debris, oils, mold waxes or

release agents. Apply a generous bead of Bostik 920 adhesive to the

exterior side of the sump, all around the hole pattern. Mount sump

and tighten nuts using a star pattern to ensure an even seal. Backfill

the void between the tank top and the bottom of the sump base with

clean fill or pea rock making sure there are no voids left.

(Go to Step 5)

STEP 2 UST FIBERGLASS COLLAR INSTALLATIONS USING

EPOXY BONDING KIT

IF USING FIBERGLASS BONDING KIT SKIP STEP 2 AND GO TO

STEP 4

If your sump base came from the factory with the bottom already

removed you are ready to start. If your base came from the factory

with a bottom in it, first remove the bottom by measuring up 3

4' from

the bottom of the sump base and cut sidewalls at this point to remove the bottom.

Sand the entire interior section of sump base where it will be joined to the UST collar and the exterior side of the UST collar on the

tapered area with a minimum of 40 grit or coarser sandpaper or

grinder. After sanding all of these areas wipe them with a clean rag

using Acetone to remove all debris, oils, mold waxes or release

agents. (Refer to Figure 2)

Carefully lower the sump base over the UST collar making sure that it

is level. Seal exterior side of sump at joining surfaces with duct tape

to prevent epoxy from escaping during the pouring process. Mix and

pour epoxy per it's labeled instructions between the tapered portion of

the UST collar and the sump base. (Refer to Figure 3). Allow epoxy

to set until it is completely hard before proceeding.

FIBERGLASS BONDING KIT

Lower the sump base down and over the UST collar. Sand with a

minimum of 40 grit or coarser sandpaper or grinder approximately

3" in width on both the sump base and the UST collar around entire

exterior perimeter of joining area. Wipe clean entire sanded

surfaces with Acetone to remove any debris, oils, mold waxes or

releases. Check to ensure base is level. Apply three layers of

supplied fiberglass mat to joining surfaces (applying 1 layer at a

time) following the labeled instructions of the fiberglass bonding kit.

Then seal off with a top coat of gelcoat. (Refer to Figure 4)

Sand and wipe clean with Acetone the

exterior side of sump base and UST collar

where the two parts join.

STEP 5 PREPARING THE TRANSITIONAL CANOPY FOR

INSTALLATION

To prepare the transitional canopy, first sand with a 40 grit or

coarser sandpaper or grinder and wipe clean with Acetone to

remove any debris, oils, mold waxes or release agents, the smooth

gelcoat side of the outer edge of the canopy that will rest in the

sump base trough. (Refer to Figure 5)

Repeat same process to the rough fiberglass side of transitional

canopy in the inner trough area where the A.R.T. joins. (Refer to

Figure 5)

If installing an upper body for a deep burial sump follow same

process as above.

Sand with 40 grit or coarser sandpaper or grinder and wipe clean with Acetone to the

gelcoated side of transitional canopy.

TRANSITIONAL CANOPY

STEP 6 INSTALLING THE TRANSITIONAL CANOPY

A. To install using Bostik 920, apply entire contents of the supplied

2 tubes of Bostik, to the trough area of the sump base. Lower the

transitional canopy into the bed of Bostik 920. (Proceed to Step 7)

B. To install using an epoxy bonding kit, apply the optional epoxy

bonding kit to the trough area of the sump base, then lower the

transitional canopy into the epoxy filled trough. (Proceed to Step 8)

C. To install using a fiberglass bonding kit, sand the exterior

perimeter of the sump base and transitional canopy where they are

joined and apply three (3) layers of fiberglass mat (1 layer at the

time) per it's labeled instructions. (Refer to Figure 8)

** If installing an upper body for a deep burial sump follow same

process as above using either Step B or C. (Proceed to Step 8)

STEP 7 INSTALLING THE TRANSITIONAL CANOPY WITH

BOSTIK

Use a minimum of six (6) clamps to press transitional canopy in to

Bostik 920 forming a water tight gasket. After tightening all clamps

install the supplied screws into the center portion of each panel on

the outside edge of the Bostik to hold the transitional canopy to the

base. Once this has been done, clamps can be removed.

Clamp using a minimum of 6 clamps the transitional canopy to the sump base.

To determine the proper height needed for the sump,

lower the A.R.T. Riser into the trough of the transitional

canopy. Use a string or transit to determine finished

grade. Sump with lid installed should be between 4" - 8"

lower than the finished grade. To determine how much of

the A.R.T. Riser to cut off to make it the correct height,

subtract the height of the sump with riser and lid from

your finished grade height. (Refer to Figure 8)

If installing a upper body for a deep burial sump, follow

the steps above for proper installation.

A.R.T. RISER WITH LID

STEP 9 PREPARING AND INSTALLING A.R.T. RISER

A. To cut your A.R.T. Riser to the correct height

needed for your installation take the measurement you

got when you subtracted the finished grade height from

the overall height of the sump and add 4" more to that. This will be the total measurement needed to remove

from the bottom fortion of the A.R.T. Riser. (Refer to

Figure 8 and 9)

B. After cutting A.R.T. Riser to correct height, sand the

bottom interior and exterior with 40 grit or coarser

sandpaper or grinder and wipe clean with Acetone to

remove any debris, oil, mold waxes or releases.

C. Sand and wipe clean with Acetone the trough area of

transitional canopy and fill with epoxy bonding kit per it's

labeled instructions and lower A.R.T. Riser into trough

with slight twisting motion.

D. If using fiberglass bonding kit apply three layers of

fiberglass mat (1 layer at the time) per it's labled

instructions. (Refer to Figure 9)

E. If using an upper body for deep burial sump follow

same procedures as above.

whatsoever except as stated above.

Lid should be no

less than 2" and

no more than 6"

below the bottom

side of manhole

cover.

A. To complete installation check gasket area and

sealing surface to make sure it is clean and free from any

type of debris that could be an interference in the gasket

sealing properly.

B. Inspect the gasket to make sure there are no cuts,

tears or deformaties that would prevent proper sealing.

C. Apply a liberal amount of lithium grease or vasoline

lubricant to the gasket to ease opening and closing and to

prevent gasket from adhearing to fiberglass sealing surface.

D. Lower lid onto sump opening and twist slightly

clockwise until resistance is felt. Stop at this point as a

watertight seal has now been applied. Over tightening

will only make opening difficult.E. Fill out PCI Installation Checklist when finished and

return to PCI to register installation for warranty.
