INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS5. Insert the inlet pipe 2.5inches into the opening onthe front of the end cap.6. Lift and place the end ofthe next chamber onto theprevious chamber by holdingit at a 45-degree angle. Lineup the chamber end betweenthe connector hook and lockingpin at the top of the firstchamber. Lower the chamberto the ground to connect thechambers.Note: When the chamberend is placed between theconnector hook and lockingpin at a 45-degree angle, thepin will be visible from theback side of the chamber.Note: The connector hookserves as a guide to ensureproper connection and doesnot add structural integrity tochamber joint. Broken hookswill not affect the structure orvoid the warranty.7. Swivel the chamber on thepin to achieve the properdirection for the trench layout.Note: The chamber allows up to 10-degree swivel in either direction ateach joint.8. Continue connecting chambers until the trench is completed.Note: As chambers are installed, verify they are level or have theprescribed slope.9. The last chamber in thetrench requires an end cap.Lift the end cap at a 45-degree angle and align theconnector hook on the top ofthe chamber with the raisedslot on the top of the endcap. Lower the end cap tothe ground and into place.567Insert inlet pipe.Connect chambers.Swivel chambers.Note: Place a few shovels of soilaround the end cap to secure itduring backfill.9Place end cap outlet end.10. To ensure structuralstability, fill the sidewall area by pulling soil from the sides of thetrench with a shovel. Start at the joints where the chambersconnect. Continue backfilling the entire sidewall area, makingsure the fill covers the louvers.11.

Be sure toline up the locking pins onthe top of both the chamberand end cap.All-in-One as mid-line connection.Optional: Fasten the end cap to the chamber with a screw at thetop of the end cap.5. Insert the connection pipe 2.5 inches into the opening on theendcap.6. Place the next chamber onto the endcap by holding it at a 45-degree angle. Line up the chamber end between the connectorhook and locking pin at the top of the endcap. Lower the chamberto the ground to connect.Repeat Steps 1 through 5 for additional trenches.Installing Inspection PortsInspection ports may be installed on the chamber or the Quick4 PlusAll-in-One Endcap. The Quick4 Plus Endcap does not allow inspectionport construction.Quick4 Plus All-in-One Inspection Port1.
