Typhoon Assembly
Before getting started:
• To prevent damage to the parts during assembly, it is recommended that cardboard or
some other protective barrier is laid down on the ground where the slide is to be
assembled.
• Verify that the gasket material is affixed to the slide parts as shown on page 6
• During assembly, be sure to apply a thin coat of anti-seize compound to the threads of all
fasteners. Anti-seize helps aid in assembly, prevents galling, and improves corrosion
resistance.
1. Assemble the pedestal part to the runway exit section as shown in FIGURE C. Attach the
pedestal part to the runway exit section by inserting the two lag screws into the holes located in
the bottom of the pedestal.
2. Before inserting the lag bolts into the side of the runway exit part, 1/4” (6 mm) pilot holes must be
drilled into the center of each of the recesses. The pilot holes should be drilled through both the
runway exit section and into the pedestal.
3. Place the assembled runway exit section and pedestal upright so that the pedestal is resting on
the ground.
