Download Installation Procedures
Step 1
Make sure bit is perpendicular to mainline. Core the proper size hole. Feel inside hole and clear any remaining material.

Step 2
Insert the rubber sleeve into the cored hole with the
GOLD VERTICAL LINE ON THE RUBBER SLEEVE facing to the
side of the mainline. The upper segment should be on top of
the wall or rib and the lower segment (PVC, Ribbed & Poly-
ethylene pipe only) should be on the inside of the pipe. Feel
inside to be sure lower segment is flat against inside wall.
Step 3
Apply the INSERTA TEE solution supplied to the inside of the rubber sleeve and to the outside of the PVC hub adapter’s spigot.
WARNING! Using pipe lube may result in hub adapter
popping out!
Step 4
Place the PVC hub adapter into the rubber sleeve. Make
sure that the RED VERTICAL LINE ON THE PVC HUB ADAPT-
ER IS IN LINE WITH THE GOLD VERTICAL LINE ON THE RUB-
BER SLEEVE. Push hub adapter in as far as possible by
hand. Make sure hub adapter is perpendicular to mainline.
Forcing hub adapter through at an angle may cause damage
to rubber sleeve or hub adapter.
Step 5
Place the 2 x 4 board onto the top of the PVC hub adapter.
Step 6
The RED HORIZONTAL LINE AT THE TOP OF THE HUB ADAPT-
ER is a depth mark. This tells the installer just how far to
drive the adapter into the rubber sleeve. Using the board
and hammer drive the PVC hub adapter into the rubber
sleeve to where the HORIZONTAL RED LINE ON THE PVC HUB
ADAPTER MEETS THE TOP OF THE RUBBER SLEEVE.

Step 7
Place the stainless steel band around the top of the rubber
sleeve and tighten down.

Step 8
Install side service pipe in normal manner.
