2.) For on-grade installations, follow the installation sequence for Dead Level

Pre-Sloped Systems.

3.) Each channel section has a 4" female IPS outlet connection. Open the

desired outlet(s) with a hole or reciprocating saw, taking care not to

damage the outlet threads. After removing any burrs, make a pipe

connection with a suitable 4" IPS nipple or tting (by others).

4.) Dead Level

Z systems are designed for two-stage concrete pours.

Following the initial pour, use suitable concrete fastners (by others) to

secure the anged frame to the slab through the countersunk holes. Finish

the installation with a topping pour or grout to grade.

DX-GF System Installation

Note: Dead Level

Frame & Grate systems are designed for installation

on grade with cast-in-place concrete channels. Installation requirements

will vary with concrete framing preferences and jobsite conditions.

1.) Establish an accurate line and grade reference using a string line or laser

level.

2.) Dead Level

frames can be anchored with either 1/2" #4 rebar, or

equivalent all-thread rod. Drive a minimum of 4 anchor rods through the

frame ears of each section, and secure the rods after leveling. For ground

anchoring, the required depth of anchor rods varies with soil conditions.

Alternatively, the frames may be attached to concrete forms by other

appropriate means.

3.) Using a 3/8" hex bolt and at washer, install the frame connectors to secure

each joint. With the ange pointing down, pull the connector tight against

the frame crossbar, and bolt the connector to the frame on the opposite

side.
