This document provides assembly instructions for the ULINE H-6697 Shower Eyewash Station.
Tool Needed
Strap Wrench
Assembly
Note: The unit is furnished with corrosion-resistant epoxy coating. Care must be taken to avoid damaging the finish during assembly. For best results, a strap wrench should be used.
Note: The use of a vice is recommended for proper tightening and alignment.
IMPORTANT! All threads are tapered pipe and require pipe joint compound or Teflon tape to assure a watertight connection. When securing with Teflon tape, wrap tape around each thread 10-12 times for optimal seal.
- Unscrew the large shower connection pipe (1) from the elbow (2) and shower ball valve (3). Wrap Teflon tape around the threading and reassemble.
- Unscrew the small shower connection pipe (4) from the shower ball valve (3). Wrap Teflon tape around the threading and reassemble.
- Assemble the shower head (5) onto the elbow (2) and set assembled parts aside.
- Unscrew the square head plug (6) from the top inlet tee (7). Wrap Teflon tape around the threading and reassemble.
Note: If the top inlet tee (7) will be where the water source is supplied, screw the square head plug (6) into the side of the middle inlet tee (8) instead. - Wrap tape around the threading of the base support unit (9) and connect to the eyewash basin connection pipes (10).
- Attach the eyewash basin (11) to the basin connection pipes (10).
- Wrap tape around the threading of the middle pipe section (12) and connect to the basin connection pipes (10).
- Connect the hose (13) to the ball valve and position for proper access by users.
- Wrap tape around the threading of the top pipe section (14) and assemble to the top of the middle inlet tee (8).
- Take the assembled shower connection pipe from steps 1-3, wrap with tape, and connect to the side of the top inlet tee (7) so that the shower head (5) is facing down for proper use.
- Attach the pull handle (15) to the arm of the ball valve (3).
- Connect the water line to the top inlet tee (7) or middle inlet tee (8). The square head plug (6) should be in the tee that does not have the water supply.
- Secure the unit to the floor and run water through the pipes to flush out any impurities and test for proper operation.
