Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Gaskets, Nuts, Seal plates

  1. Assemble the wireway sections

    Place a gasket between the flanges of the wireway sections and secure them using screws and nuts as shown in the assembly details.

  2. Seal the joints

    For joints between lay-in sections, position the LSGQR fitting and install it with a shoulder bolt, ensuring gaskets are visible from above. Rotate the cam to lock the position.

  3. Install box entries

    Make a cutout in the control enclosure as specified, position the box connector and gasket inside, and install a 90° angle sealing plate to secure the connection.

  4. Adjust telescope fitting

    Assemble the compression ring, gasket, and retainer on the telescope fitting body. Insert the body into the straight section and adjust to the desired length.

  5. Anchor the telescope fitting

    Drill .25 inch diameter holes through the sides and bottom of the straight section and telescope fitting. Install .25−20x.5 screws and secure with cap nuts and lockwashers.

  6. Calibrate the wireway

    Ensure all sections are level and securely fastened. Verify that the wireway is properly grounded if used for grounding continuity.
