Assembly Instructions:
1. Optional Spill Containment Pans should be laid out and assembled in the location in which the unit
will be located. Once the pans are assembled together, they are difficult to move around by hand.
2. Set each Spill Containment Pan side by side by aligning the two holes located on each side.
3. Using the Spill Containment Pan Fitting Kit, located with the pans, to fasten the pans together by
inserting the 3/4" pipe nipple through the hole.
4. For interior connections, place one rubber gasket on each side of the 3/4" pipe nipple and then
thread a pipe nut onto each side of the pipe nipple (see Image 1).
5. Tighten the pipe nuts using two pipe wrenches until the rubber gaskets make a watertight seal. Do
not over tighten the nuts as this will extrude the gaskets around the nuts. If this happens back the
nut off.
6. For the four outside holes in the Spill Containment Pans, place one rubber gasket on each side of
the 3/4" pipe nipple and then thread a pipe nut onto the pipe nipple located inside the pan. Use the
four pipe caps threading them onto the end of the pipe nipple located on the outside of the pan.
Tighten the fittings in the same manner as the ones on the interior (see Image 2).
7. Set the metal grating from the Spill Containment Pans to the side until the Storage System is fully
assembled. You will need to place the rack into the Spill Containment Pans and adjust the turn
buckles before placing the galvanized grating.
