Line Clamping Systems (Hydro-Craft, Inc.)

The Multi-Clamp®

SUGGESTED MOUNTING METHODS

Actual installation of a line run, using the MULTI-CLAMP SYSTEM, begins with the mounting of the lower Clamping unit. Various methods are available to the installer for securing the lower Clamping Unit to the machine base, pillar, upright spar, mounting plate, etc.

WELD ADAPTER
	1. Insert Weld Adapter into mounting hole of lower Clamping Unit. Secure Weld Adapter to lower Clamping Unit with socket head stacking nut (finger tight). Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for each hole of Clamping Unit. Weld Adapter attached to lower clamping unit provides the basis of this method.

	2. Position assembled unit onto mounting surface. 3. Weld base of each Weld Adapter to mounting surface. 4. Tighten all Stacking Nuts securely and proceed with remainder of installation.

THREAD ADAPTER FOR TAPPED HOLE
	1. Using a scale, or the Clamping Unit itself, measure and mark location on mounting surface for each mounting hole on the lower Clamping Unit. Note that all mounting holes are spaced at even increments. 2. Drill appropriate size hole for the particular MULTI-CLAMP series being installed.


	3. Using tapping tool, tap each hole with appropriate size thread for series being installed. 4. Assemble required number of Stacking Nuts and Thread Adapters for each mounting hole. 5. Position lower Clamping Unit over tapped holes and thread assembled Thread Adapter-Stacking Nut into each until finger tight. 6. Tighten all Stacking Nuts securely and proceed with remainder of installation.
