• Insert approx. 100 mm of the tension strap into one of the slots of the tension strap clamp and bend it, see Fig. 6.38.
• If necessary, insert the long end of the tension strap into the metal spring, see Fig. 6.39. The metal spring does not have
to be mounted on:
– steel pipes
– pipes with an outer pipe diameter < 80 mm
– pipes that are not subjected to significant temperature fluctuations
• Place the tension strap around the pipe, see Fig. 6.40.
• Position the tension strap clamp and metal spring (if necessary) on the pipe, see Fig. 6.40:
– on a horizontal pipe, mount the tension strap clamp on the side of the pipe, if possible
– mount the metal spring (if necessary) opposite to the tension strap clamp
• Insert the long end of the tension strap into the second slot of the tension strap clamp, see Fig. 6.40 a.
• Tighten the tension strap and bend it.
• Bend both ends of the tension strap, see Fig. 6.40 b.
• Repeat the steps for the second tension strap. Position the tension strap at the distance s, see Fig. 6.40.
• Put the rail on the tension strap clamps.
• Use the screws to fix the rail to the tension strap clamps, see Fig. 6.41.
• Tighten the screws.
