5) Apply large bead of Plexus adhesive to
the hull structure as shown in the figure
to the right. Apply approximately ½ to
2
/
3rds
cartridges at each of the four
locations. Work deliberate and fast as it
takes some time to apply the adhesive
to the structure. MA590 has a 90 minute
working time at room temperature (23°C
/ 73°F). This working time can reduce
to 40-50 minutes at elevated
temperatures. Two workers should
apply the adhesive at the same time to
finish the installation before the
adhesive starts to cure.
6) Lower fixture and saddles over the hull
structure and apply light downward
pressure to each of the four saddles until
the two nylon screws rest on the hull
structure (SEE FIG. 7). The adhesive
will be forced towards the forward and
aft ends of each saddle and partially
down the sides of the foundation beams.
7) Insert full adhesive cartridge along with
mixing wand / nozzle assembled in step
3 above into gun.
8) Begin to inject adhesive into the six
holes provided on each side of each of
the four saddles. Follow the numbered
sequence shown until the adhesive
pushes out the edges of the saddle
perimeter. The intent is to pump in the
adhesive working from the top down and
from the middle to the ends to fill the
gaps and displace any air.
A complete bond is required – excess adhesive will be needed to make sure all bond gaps
are filled.
