| In regions where heavy winds, typhoons, hurricanes and storms are usual, it is necessary to use the special TYPHOON SET, provided by HELIOAKMI. |
|
The typhoon set contains:
| 1. | Plates (J) of 1150mm (2 pcs) |
| 2. | Plates (D) of 930 mm (4 pcs) | | 3. | Short fixing plates (L) (2 pcs) | | 4. | Long screws - small step nuts (8 pcs) | | 5. | Tape of metal belt (10m roll) | | 6. | Rubber profile (3.5m) | | 7. | Moly plugs - screw nuts (8 pcs) |

Before you start installing the appliance, you should check the following:
For installation on a flat surface, check the density, hardness and strength of the concrete.
For installation on a sloping roof, additional rafters must be installed under the tiles, so that the distance between the rafters doesn't exceed 50 cm, and their strength must be good enough for the safe installation of the appliance. |
|
| ASSEMBLING INSTRUCTIONS |
|
| To assemble the support base follow the same assembly procedures, mentioned on sections 2 and 3 of the Installation Guide (for flat or sloping surfaces).
For the connection of the plates U, Z and B, use the long screws - small step nuts.
Before you adjust the metal belts perimetrically to the storage tank, place the rubber profile between the storage tank and the metal belt. |

Note:
When the TYPHOON SET is used, the face plate (20A) IS NOT placed. |
| After you have placed the storage tank on the support base, adjust the metal belt connecting the one end of the belt between the screw-nuts, which tighten the plates U and Z and the other end of the metal belt between the screw-nuts which tighten the
plates U and B. (see detail a & b).
Attention:

| When you have to install the appliance on a flat roof, you must use the two plates J, screwing them on the plates C.
Screw the short plates L on the plates J. To screw the plates J on the plates C use the long screws - small step nuts.
|
 |
Screw the short fixing plates L and plates A on the roof, using the 8 moly plugs of the typhoon set, as well as the 4 screw nuts included in the plastic bag with the fittings.
The plastic bag with the connection fittings is packed in the support base carton.For the safer installation of your appliance, we recommend you to secure the storage tank on the support base using more metal belts than the ones illustrated in the photos. |
 |
| For installation on a sloping roof, we recommend you to use more metal belts, securing both the storage tank and the support base, by screwing them on the timbers under the tiles. You can also use the four D plates, by screwing them onto the timbers. |

INSURANCE OF THE APPLIANCE
In regions where typhoons, tornados, hurricanes etc. occur and hail is larger than 20mm in diameter, we recommend you to issue insurance for your appliance.
