Installation guide

Drill hole to the required diameter and depth for rebar size being used.
Clean the hole with brush and hand pump at least four times each. It is very important and necessary before installation.
Insert cartridge into gun and attach nozzle.
Dispense to waste until even colour is obtained.
Insert the mixer nozzle to the bottom of the drill hole and inject resin, slowly withdrawing the nozzle as the hole is filled to 70% of its depth.
Immediately insert the rebar, slowly and with slight twisting motion. Remove any excess resin around the hole before it sets and leave it undisturbed until the curing time elapses.
