Do not modify, heat, hit or distort the rod

anchors, e.g. by smashing the pin with ahammer. In particular, do not spread thestraps orpress them together. The thick-ness of the joining plates must correspondto the wrench opening.

Use only the pins supplied. To avoid the mis-take of using materials of different grades,always scrap any surplus pins!!

When turning, i.e. pretensioning, the rods,restrain the rod anchors by the wrenchfaces so that they cannot twist and distort

the straps. When using extension sleeves, take care to

ensure that the thread ends are securely

locked at the centre of the sleeves.
