1.)
Drill clearance holes (13mm - 16mm diameter depending upon material
and length of tie to be used) to specify depth and at required vertical
spacing. |
2.) Blow out slots and thoroughly flush with water. |
3.) With the aid of a resin gun, pump RESIN to outlet of nozzle. Insert the nozzle to full depth of drilled hole and pump resin to fill hole. Maintain pressure on gun while retrieving nozzle to ensure that all voids are filled with resin. |
