1. Draw up a Hawke design template to determine your cable/pipe layout. |
2. Make sure the frame is clean, then pull cables or pipes through, placing the largest at the bottom.(Note: use open ended frame to fit around existing cables/pipes). |
3. Lubricate the inside of the frame and all the insert blocks. If required pre-lubricated blocks are also available. |

4. Begin packing the frame. A stayplate is inserted between each layer of insert blocks. |
5. Insert the compression plate before the last row of blocks or earlier if required with additional stayplates. |
6. Pack the last row, insert the compression tool or screw out the bolt from its shroud and tighten until there is sufficient room to fit the tapered end packers. |

7. Insert two outside packing pieces then remove tool or return bolt into shroud before fitting centre block. |
8. Tighten the nuts on the endpacking to compress and complete the seal. Approximately 10mm of thread should protrude on each bolt. |
9. Hawke's unique color coding system enables the installation to be visually inspected after completion and ensures correct matching of the block halves. |
