Glydaseal Gate Installation<br />

This <strong>Instruction</strong> <strong>Manual</strong> describes the installation of conventional<br />

sluice gates. All of the same directions should<br />

be followed for installation of the Glydaseal gate. However,<br />

there are four instructions that should be followed<br />

closely for the successful performance of the Glydaseal<br />

sluice gate.<br />

1. The locking plates that hold the disc to the frame and<br />

prevent it from opening must be removed prior to opening<br />

the gate. These are located at the top edge of the<br />

disc.<br />

16<br />

2. Concrete or foreign matter must be removed from<br />

the top of the gates, from the PVC seat facings on the<br />

frame and the seal on the disc. These surfaces must be<br />

clean to ensure that they are not damaged during initial<br />

operation.<br />

3. The guide bar studs (C) should not project beyond<br />

the guide bar.<br />

4. If the Glydaseal is to be field painted, the seal, the PVC<br />

seat facing, the bronze bar and the guide bar groove in<br />

the disc should be well masked to exclude paint from<br />

those surfaces.<br />
